I'm curious to know how others process their own experiences. Do you do it alone and internally? Do you share it with your partner and talk it out? Do you not process it at all and just accept it for what it is?  Does it balance with the way your partner processes the experiences?

I'm not sure about "processing" my experiences.  I just pretty much have them, enjoy what I enjoy and dislike what I dislike, share that with Him through conversation and move on.  I am loathe to journal.  I didn't keep a diary as a kid and have always hated the idea of writing down all my thoughts and feelings.  Just so not me.  To me, it's a waste of time.  I want to spend my time doing things not writing about what I just did and how I felt about it.  He doesn't want to read what I have to say.  He wants to hear it with His ears and discuss it as we go along.  Just too time-consuming and distant to write down what I have to say for it to be read at a later time.

There was one point in time that I did some writing on LiveJournal but it's before we lived together.  He told me to do it sometimes about certain issues and I did.  I didn't like it, but it was His desire so I obediently did it.  When we moved in together, there was no longer any desire on His part to read my thoughts in writing on a regular basis.

We are very complementary to each other in how we "process" things.  There's no over-analyzing and journaling.  We just do things, talk some about the high and low points, and move on to do even more things.  No time to slow down to write in my diary about it.................luci

It seems that detailed journaling works well with so many. Does he ever feel obligated (I can't think of a better word) to respond to your journal entries?

It sounds like you guys figured out what works well for both of you!

Thanks for the well wishes!

I NEVER put any pressure on him to read or respond to the journal--as that would defeat it's purpose.  I don't know if he feels internal pressure to respond--although I highly doubt it as that isn't his nature.  I just do my part--write things down and express myself--and trust that he will do his, in whatever shape and form that takes. 

HTH.
