Yeah, it's prob just me thinking I've 'failed'.

Ever the perfectionist. I have to be perfect at this too.

Dammit, if I'm being nice to you, how dare you experience it as 'abuse'.

And yes, I did get into this to save my M. But realising that I had to change how i interact with H was a key facet of wanting to becoming a better person overall. His comment left me crestfallen, cause i thought i had grown in this regard.

Still, his assessment doesn't define me. I have my own values and need to measure myself against what is important to me, like Busting says.
