A Hot Mess Posted July 21, 2010 Posted July 21, 2010 Seriously. She's doing the whole "bad timing" rant on FB, because she knows you're not that type of person, and that it will cause you to contact her. She told you to hit the bricks, and while it may have taken you a bit of time to do so, you're just giving her what she asked for. You had no control over the events in her life, and if things were different (which they're obviously not) you'd be there for her. Unfortunately giving-in to her breakdown isn't going to change anything. She'll just see it as another "victory" and a boost to her ego. Stay strong.
Author AbeFroman Posted July 21, 2010 Author Posted July 21, 2010 So far, I've stuck to my guns, but I'll be honest, I have this profound sense of guilt for some reason, and it's tearing me up. Been a huge wreck all day-- can't eat, can't sleep, my mouth feels like I've been eating chalk and sawdust. I know it's unfounded, but I still feel some deep loyalty to her, and despite her reaction-- which genuinely shocked me in it's immaturity and spitefulness-- I'm really wrestling with an overwhelming sense that I've done something wrong. Even though I know the sentiment is probably not reciprocated, I feel completely lousy about hurting her. Sorry for rambling, but it's so fresh, and to be honest, I'm scared that our mutual friends are busy dog-piling me as some kind of cold-hearted monster. I'm a very confused dude right now. I hate to vent this much, but you have all been so wonderfully supportive. I cannot thank you enough for being so kind to avtotal stranger. For whatever it's worth, it means the world to know I'm not alone. Thanks!
