person’s side. You need to talk about this and ensure
that any feelings of inadequacies are permanently put to rest. Every person
needs assurance at some time or another and as long as you can communicate,
things will be fine. However, if your mate becomes withdrawn or irritated,

which are important for a good relationship. 71.
