I am such a ball of emotions all the time and I am constantly snowballing little things into bigger issues in my head. One minor problem in my life/relationship/job can turn into so much more inside my head. Then I stress and worry about it and...big surprise.... it usually turns into nothing major.

I know that I do this in my mind, so why can't I stop myself from doing it? My SO and I just got off the phone...no fight, nothing bad...just a boring conversation. I tried to spice things up with some of those "Questions for Couples" but he seems to always want to stay on day-to-day topics. I think part of this is his religion...a lot of those question ask about future plans/dreams. My SO is Muslim and they have a strong sense of the will of God, that we don't have a lot of control over our own futures. So for him, growing up in that culture, it's strange to talk about that kind of stuff. Where as I grew up constantly planning and dreaming about the future.

Anyway, the conversation was just ...blah... neither of us had much new going on to talk about. Now the trick is to not let it snowball in my mind to some overblown freak out about the status of our relationship.
Oh I wish my mind would just turn off sometimes
