I know that nothing 'out there' really exists or should really affect my emotional state of mind. I am fully aware that I am responsible for all my emotions and how I react to certain situations and yet I find that I can easily be brought down by a simple snide comment directed my way or the occasional bout of moodiness which can last a week or two!

This post is not really about the short-comings of my partner but rather about me and how I handle situations. One moment I can feel fully elated and in the NOW and my partner can say something really negative and destroy my peace of mind.

Does this happen to anyone else?

How do you deal with it?
