Welcome to We Can Do Hard Things. And today we have one of our favorite shows for you, which is when we... avoid our own problems by trying to solve yours. Yay! This is my comfort zone. What a relief. I know, right? Isn't this great? Okay, so let's just jump in. Let's just hear from these loves. Let's start with Jessie.
Hi, Glenn and sister and Abby. My name is Jessie. She, her. And I have a big question for you. My partner is the love of my life. He's so sweet. He's so thoughtful and so kind. And our relationship overall is amazing. And sometimes he makes jokes that I just think are hurtful. And I have told him and he says they're not even spirited and he's just joking. But it's hurtful and I can't get past it.
And I... I don't know what to do to make him see my side because I feel like if he could understand that his impact was not matching his intent, then he wouldn't be making the jokes. But it's been a real sticking point in our relationship that I really don't know what to do. So if you have any advice, please help me out.
