Today was a bad day. My partner and I have had a lot of stress lately, both of us working in care through the Covid outbreak, him having months off sick with depression, stuck in a cramped flat full of damp, trying to save for our wedding, accepting we can’t have a baby, and his ex causing a fall out with his kids. Then today came the final straw.. £900 worth of repairs on the car! So we’re both stressed and upset, I know it’s up to me to find the money (he’s on sick pay) and he’s got another one of his headaches and the depression slump comes in full force and i have a knee jerk reaction and think ‘I’m done with this, I’m out!’.

We get the car sorted, we talk things through and get settled for the night and he dozed off in front of the tv. He usually talks in his sleep, and all I hear is: ‘got each other, I don’t care about anybody else’. Seriously! How could I ever even think about going anywhere?! The absolute love from this man, I get little butterfly’s thinking about it ❤️
