I Never Imagined Being Here

[Making_IT]

I called her after several rounds of text messaging about a restaurant. We discussed the question and then she mentioned the relationship. She told me that she felt she had no other choices/options other than to leave the way that she did. This is where I really slipped because we went back and forth several times. I need to work on just listening and validating, I will focus on that. I haven't read Sandi2's list yet, but I will try to do some searching and see if I can find it. She has been posting on another thread and has been extremely helpful. I agree with your comment on the IC, it is controlling and I can't control her.

I am not going to approach her about us going out tomorrow night. I won't even mention it unless she brings it up. If we do end up going out I am going to try like hell to keep the relationship thoughts completely out of my mind. I just want to go and have fun like I would with any of my friends. This will be tough especially with the depression right now, but I know that I can do it.

Thank you!
