I can’t recall anybody ever being displeased with me. Aside, from small trivial things like I forgot a birthday, or something very small…in which most people know my personality and know that I mean no harm so have never been angry with me. I have an internal agenda that I feel is a very strong one towards ‘good’ and my parents, teachers, friends, etc, have always admired it..even from the youngest age. I just knew the ‘right’ thing to do and even helped my parents with advice. I’ve never fit in because I don’t have the desire to. I do my own thing, as well as do good for people. This is the first time I’ve had anybody displeased with me like this (who I was close to). And I think that must be the problem. I must be really saddened by it because I’ve never suffered this kind of loss. Also, I’m still trying to re-build myself after a deep depression that I acquired from living in an isolated environment (volunteering in a rural village in a developing nation and felt too sad by the things I saw around me. I wasn’t good at coping and so I beat myself up because I ‘failed’ at staying strong through it all). I came back and it was the first time I needed guidance and support from my friends/family. She was the only person to leave me during this dark period of my life. I’m recovering from this now so am still regaining my strength each day!
