flip a coin
the most difficult issues in my life are *always* the hardest ones to articulate. my mind never seems to translate what's going on in my heart...and my mouth speaks before i'm able to formulate thorough thoughts.
i build up this form of anxiety when needing to address an issue, especially when it's directed towards those i care about the most. i try to avoid the latent anger approach and attempt to speak calmly and rationally, but it doesn't always come out that way, and i apologize.
but when i *am* able to do so, it would be nice to have some type of acknowledgment that the message was received in *your* mind. even the smallest gesture would suffice. a simple "okay, i understand" "no, I don't understand"....even a reaction in the face would lift up the burden of anticipation...which leads to aggravation...then the exasperation.
give me something to work with. reciprocate. interaction is a key tool in friendships/family/relationships. if we don't have that, it's like talking to a damn wall. a lifeless, non-thinking....damnit, it's mind-numbing!
"one step ahead, not two steps behind"...at least walk beside me.
