Hi Anita,

Your reply actually made me tear up because before even reading it that was what i was thinking. I don’t believe that he doesn’t like me and that he doesn’t see me that way (i wrote him on instagram after i got home from the yoga session) I think I got too close and he got scared and shut down. I did the same when he got too close i shut down and when i am not feeling well (dysregulated) there’s nothing or no one who can convince me that they care. Your self defense mechamism are so strong they end up hurting you. I nearly ended up canceling my housewarming because of my anxiety. I was soo excited about it until one hour before and they were late i was fighting an anxiety attack thinking they don’t really care about this, they don’t really want to be here. A lot like the same he showed Monday.

In the post about his brother and him struggling with love he added that he was fuming and taking his anger out on him, and being so blinded by his own problems he wasn’t there for him. So anger must be there. I also think his respons was so odd that it couldn’t possibly be just a I’m not interested. Too many signs that he does in fact like me. Wondering what would happened had i asked him the thing you wrote
