well, the end of another day. finally whew I did end up calling him, but waited to do it on my 15 min break at work so i would not get too involved in it, just say hi and ask how he is and move along.
it went well. he asked after a bit if i miss him, and i just said i don't want to talk about that and he changed the topic right away. i feel a bit better tonight i think because i did have a simple nice conversation with him in which i got asked about how i am and what 's going on in my life for a change, instead of only hearing how he is and everythign he is doing.
its hard, i don't wanna get too close, but i don't wanna get too far away. i love him but feel the need to protect myself from him too.
now i'm kinda walking on eggshells around MYSELF sheesh!
Carefulll........caarreefullll.... sigh -- me vs. me
Soon you won't feel like you are walking on your own eggshells. When I first began to change my behaviors and reactions, it felt sooooooooooooo weird. Like I wanted to crawl out of my skin (especially during chaos) but like we teach our children, with practice practice practice, you can improve your skills.
So glad you are here,
