I agree. Being in a relationship is not so much about being thick-skinned (ktspktsp and I still get over-sensitive to some things), but it's about trusting that the other person means well and does love you, all of the time, even when he or she says something a bit out of character. Which means that even if she/he accidentally does let something not-nice slip out, it's important to communicate about it and find out where it came from or what one's reaction was all about, etc. It always goes both ways, if the communication system is in good order.

Then again, if they said something awful just to BE awful to you... well, the trust (and the relationship) isn't really there anyway.

Truly, Ustwo, you are an enigma.
