We are often afraid to express what is, because we don't know how the other person will react to it and we might loose their friendship. Focus on what are your feelings rather than thinking what should be. It's ok to be confused but don't make it an excuse for not expressing yourself at all. Try to use "I appreciate you for ____ and I resent you for ___. Instead of using BUT.
It gets a lot more easier to convey a more natural and easy relationship with your partner if you are often telling each other your feelings and the truth. Do not assume that one feeling cancels out the other. Both or all can be true. After saying something that is hard to receive, stay around for a while to listen to what the other person will say and hopefully repeat what he heard you saying.
