Salutations to any & all who may read this.
I've entitled my blog, "New Glasses", to illustrate the point that I've finally come to see the relationships in my life through a fresh set of eyes.
Extensive reading & research into psychology, and personality disorders, has made a strong impact on how I will handle existing relationships, as well as any new ones that may come into my life.
I grew up in a household in which psychological/emotional abuse was the norm, and physical abuse was a little too frequent. I'm only just now coming to understand how that upbringing has set the stage for relationships that were lopsided, or even abusive on occasion. I was groomed to be to quick to take the blame for any and all conflict.
