(no subject)
I feel really akward now. I went to a friend's house for a discussion group and to see friends. When I arrived an hour late, there was no discussion. There were lots of people hanging out and being random. This is not usually bad. But I felt every stress, every mistake, that they had been mulling over or made that night. So I left. I know I didn't need to deal with all their stress, so I was doing the right thing, but I didn't have another excuse for leaving - I ended up telling them that it felt stressed there. I saw the hostess' face turn in confusion and concern. I tryed to play it off, but I didn't do it very well. All the way home I reminded myself that I am not responsible for others' emotions. I needed to leave, but there's still part of me feeling bad about it.
