Image of Myself (2)
She is a good listener. And she intended to listen to me carefully. Before the discussion, I summarized my concerns in a simple diagram and handed them over. This action will also help clear your head.
We talked for an hour and a half, much longer than initially planned. I didn’t get any solution, but that’s fine because I wanted to see how other people would recognize my worries.
The next day, I sent a thank you email. A few days later, she returned her impressions. Among them was her surprise that I wrote about the last post. So whenever I had spoken online, I had come across as hopeful. This time, however, I seemed a little unenergetic and depressed. She also said she was surprised I cared whether my thoughts and distressed situations were common or ordinary.
Her email was beneficial to me. In other words, it became clear that although I may have more worries than others and am also an introvert, I am not seen as such. When I told my wife about this interpretation, she reacted quickly, which is unusual. “You look like someone who doesn’t get lost in your own way,” she says.
Well, fine (^^).
