I asked one of my male friends some questions via email. He obliged me by answering the questions succinctly. Honestly, I have no idea how to read him. Sometimes he’s incredibly warm & friendly, and other times, distant. Although, he usually keeps his guard to some degree.
My therapist suggested I ask my friend to define our friendship better. At this point, I’m not all that ready to confront this, as there is so much on my plate. He’s a really nice guy, but I’m definitely not the woman yet I want to be to attract the man I want and there are just some traits he has that I don’t want.
Maybe he knew that I was having a rough week and just wanted to be a friend, to be supportive. I really don’t know, but he sat pretty darned close to me and of course, made sure to greet me. It does make me feel special, cared for and loved.
Later, while I was in the social room of our church, though he wasn’t talking to me, he stood fairly nearby, as if waiting for me to finish with the people I was. Since he couldn’t get my attention one way, he found a different way.
The resolution in my mind from last week was I was just going to enjoy his friendship at wherever he is with all his guarded stuff. I already made up my mind long ago that I was not pursuing any man, but I will give signals whether I am interested or not.
There’s a lot of work ahead for me in dealing with all this stuff I have on my plate. Right now, just with my ex’s stuff alone, I’m dealing with a lot of anger issues, and I’m sure to some extent in the deep recesses of my mind, I’m holding onto some unforgiveness.
I certainly don’t want to be a sad sack, but I can’t fake being happy when I’m not. I know the church at which I’ve been going to for over 6+ years is the church I’m supposed to be at. Can’t quite explain it, but it is.
I read an article last night about how a woman was getting to her core issues and it was truly amazing the tenacity she went through it with. I want to do similar, but find myself not wanting to. There seems to be resistance to tapping.
