Well I haven't posted a new blog in three months so I figure it's time.

I've been enjoying the latest sets very much. Seems like they are getting better and better in general. (though there are definitely many many great older sets as well)

I'm also enjoying talking with more and more people on here. So many different personalities and opinions.

Here's a conversation I had with my wife recently that I thought was interesting.
We were discussing needs in a relationship.
I have a need to FEEL needed. She said that she is afraid to need someone for fear that they won't meet that need.
My opinion is that even if the person you care about isn't always able to be there for your specific needs that shouldn't prevent you from showing your need.
Communication of what you are feeling and wanting is often lacking because of pride or shame or fear or any number of things. That's a shame because when feelings aren't expressed they can't be addressed.
Of course, I am guilty of the same thing. Don't think I'm saying I'm better than that. We all have our reasons for hiding our true feelings. Just saying it'd be nice if we could all get past those things and be open with those we care about.
