Being the “safe person” is hard
Post Body

First, thanks to everyone on this sub, I’ve just joined but it’s very comforting knowing I’m not alone.

One thing that hit me hardest when my wife said it was that I was the one who she could always cancel on, let down, or just ignore because I’m her safe person. I see now that this is a thing. And I understand.

But f***, it’s lonely and absolutely painful being that person, seeing them show their best side and put the effort in for everyone else, and getting scraps of that MAYBE if you’re lucky.

I feel bad even saying that but I know folk here know what I mean.
