I don't know if she knows me well enough yet to have a nuanced understanding of the situation...but maybe I'll bring it up with her. Ugh. I know it's a learning experience, but it just hurts so much that mentor figure is there physically, but emotionally she's on another planet. She isn't sweet with me anymore. She doesn't tell me she likes talking to me or looks forward to our visits; it's all business and when you're done, you're done and goodbye. We don't even talk about Judith Butler anymore...
