I'm getting frustrated reading those short cuts...:( I get heated real easy.

Shpat! First of all congratulations!!!!!!!! :dance::thumbs: You such a great couple! I always look at your pictures and think how you guys look great together!

Second, the same frustration happened to many of us at the beginning of reading this shortcuts stuff, I remember a week ago I felt the same...

Just simply read it several times, then start to watching and observing movements of people who is little ahead of you at the NVC process, and finally you became clearer and clearer with each passing day. And finally , I promise you will be filling that you know the steps by hard, day or night! :yes:

Ask questions, we all are here for each other!
