I think bravery in communication extinguishes resentment.
The best friends who talk all the time and are not afraid to be honest with each other leave no room for resentment to grow.
The roommates who suffer in silence don’t keep in touch when they part ways.
Resentment is like a weed, it’s best to stamp it out before it spreads.
You can almost pinpoint the instant it gains momentum.
Someone else’s habit has just moved from ‘quirky character flaw’ to ‘downright annoying’. You think about mentioning it to them, asking them to stop, but something convinces you not to. Instead the voice tells you to just go about your day, don’t risk confrontation.
Aaannnnddd that’s when resentment starts to grow!
