Before being with Todd, I used to worry that our relationship wouldn’t work if we both didn’t want to do the same thing all the time. Or even worse, I would just feel like I was wrong - that going out and being social was the RIGHT thing to do and hanging out at home was the wrong thing.

But this is your reminder that if you’re stuck in a narrative loop telling you that being an introvert is lame or boring, I promise you’re normal and healthy. Those lies are hard to break, but I truly believe that I am a better wife, friend and employee when I take the time to rejuvenate the way I need to. Take care of yourself however you need!
