Angela, I am honest with people because it doesnt help if I'm not.
I wouldn’t have it any other way! Honesty is definitely best! Don’t sugarcoat stuff for me…tell it to me straight!
I am telling you all this because I see you still looking towards him for your actions. You react to his reactions. If he is in a good mood, then you are, if he isnt, then you are upset.
I see this…I know this…and I “think” I’m not reacting to him. But, then, later when I look back, I can see where I was reacting to him. It is really difficult for me to detach when he is still living at home, still sharing a room with me, and still acting nice sometimes. It would be easier if he was just mad all the time…or if he didn’t live there…
Thats why it is important for you to remain steady. You dont get pulled into his anger anymore.
This is the same stuff I’ve been battling since Day One on here…I feel like I’m learning…then, I look back and I’m right back where I was.
