They asked one older gentleman who has been married for 50 years about the secret of the successful marriage. He said the following: “When she was angry, I kept quite. And when I was angry, she kept quite”.
You can take this principle and apply it to anything when it comes to relationships, including sharing “too much” love.
Also, when he is a gentleman, and you are a classy lady, and you have respect towards each other, and you are not selfish and want to hear their story, there is nothing you can’t work it out.
I also believe that this “ … kept quite” part, is what “fixing yourself” really means. It does not mean that you should become another person, you can’t and shouldn’t change your character. What you can do, is to be quite sometimes and don’t forget the empathy.
