I learned that I will make decisions about 'us' without talking to my S.O. The last solid relationship I had before the lovely young woman I am currently seeing was my last high school girlfriend. We had been dating for the last 3 months of my senior year and she was a sophomore. I decided, a few days after I graduated, that WE wouldn't work while I was at school. I thought of it at the time as wanting to be fair to her, but if I really wanted to be fair to her I would have discussed it with her, rather than make the decision outright. I must guard against this.
