wtf. earlier it was so important now she's too busy. what the heck is with her?!
was she expecting one reaction and didn't get it so she's mad nod? what in the world.
I feel like replying eff you.

I'm trying to detach, I'm trying to not let her mood affect me and It does. Where's my W? the woman who cared about me? will she ever be back!?!?!?!


I haven't kept up with your sitch, so forgive me if this is way off base but . . .

Why did you immediately assume she was mad at you when she said she was busy?

This seems like a classic example of being emotionally enmeshed in an unhealthy way and mind reading.

Maybe she was just busy?

And even if she just didn't want to talk to you at the moment, why does that make you want to respond eff you? Your emotional response seems out of proportion to the exchange.

Emotional attachment starts when you stop mind reading and stop assuming her actions are directly related to you.
