Emotions
So hi let’s talk about how I cried yesterday for a good 15 hours okay? OKAY. It started with an exchange with my best friend. I’d mentioned that I was waiting on something from Etsy for several days and the mask was $17. I was making a point of how ironic it was that me being as dirt poor as I am, I don’t want to ask for a refund because I’m worried that my $17 and others is his only source of income. Me, who has no income and has to borrow money like it’s my job is worried about that? Okay. Well her reaction was to fucking lecture me about unnecessary spending and after a couple deflections and she’s still riding my ass, I’m now pissed, but as I’m trying to react to things differently other than anger, I write her a nice message acknowledging her position and feelings, trying to show empathy (which I suck at) to her position but also defending myself like, don’t lecture me. It was beautiful I was so proud. She proceeds to respond by an eye roll emoji. So now I’m upset. I explain to he...
