Dear Lindsey:

Anxiety is tough- I know, had decades of it and it is not gone. All we can do is do our best to manage it and lower it, and this is just what you are doing.

It happened repeatedly before that you texted him, he didn’t answer for a long time and before you know it he is asleep on your lap, so nothing new today, nothing different happened. He likes you, I have no doubt. And he is not ready for a relationship, just like before. Nothing bad happened, take slow deep breaths and repeat: nothing bad happened, nothing different from before.
