Hankster: Yeah... I'm an early and quick reactor really... go go hypervigiliance!

nowheretohide: Thank you, although I don't really need help with the logic - I know full well that my reaction to it is totally skewed from reality... I just was stuck in too much anxiety over it anyway and wasn't able to make myself go because overall I felt like an unwanted inconvenience. I know 100% that I was in the right about the board game... I was surprised with myself for speaking up, but I would only ever speak up if I KNEW there was no real debate about it. I mostly just wanted to know if other people here tend to react the same way.

But yeah - I know my own pattern. I won't contact either of them until they contact me. Which is daft and I know it, but it's how I tend to roll. If I was to contact them first then it would just make me feel like I was annoying them and being a burden that they don't want around. So I will wait it out until they contact me and then I can at least go "Don't be an idiot, THEY messaged you."
