I think I do know someone like that, though she doesn't mean to be...

*giggles* I'm thinking you must be talking about someone other than who I think you're talking about, because the person I think you're talking about tends to be far too quiet and reserved, saying nothing about her feelings rather than expressing anger or pregnant silence. :-3 *huggles warmly*

I know people like that

Sometimes the best thing to do is gently say " I dont understand what your feeling right now, but I would love to help in anyway I can, whenever your ready, until then I will give you some space, just remember I am here if you need me

*hugs* Thanks for the advice! A little space was all that was needed. For both of us, I think. :-P

There are people that don't realize they're projecting so much animosity from their internal struggle
