Some Things You Can’t Do Alone
There were times after a relationship sputtered out, that I’d consult self-help books to learn what I could do better next time. I’d comb through the pages for exercises to practice, like musical scales, or the pliés and tendues I do in ballet class, only to realize that I couldn’t brush up on my coupling skills alone. I needed a partner for that.
