i'm an ass.......
i have to curb the impulse to make everyone try to feel what i do, when of course, they don't always.
i don't think you need to justify yourself. i don't want you to think you can't feel safe talking about your feelings, that would be bad for you and for the PS-Board. i'm glad you've written back, to me and the others. maybe it'll be a way to work out some of the numbness.
my tendency is to over-empathize, so as not to get to my own feelings - just focus on the feelings of others who are in pain.
next time i write: 'some things are better left unsaid,' i should take it to heart myself. i never meant to hurt you. and i should keep myself in check better. so please keep writing, i'll still be listening...
yer frend,
