Dear Alice:

You are very welcome. I don’t mind at all that you use my wordings- I suggested it for you to consider using it in your message to her!

You are a bit overwhelmed, understandably, by the many issues that this relationship with this “saint” represent to you. This is why I suggested messaging her about just one issue: the fact that you share your problems and challenges with her vs she sharing none  (which leads you to think of her superior to you, which causes you to feel resentment, while real friendships is between equals, where both share about problems, challenges and triumphs)!
