I like your words that it will be okay. There is an imbalance there. Even though I may be sending her pictures or information about a place I know she loves. She doesn't often answer emails. I want hope and expect her to answer and I fall to pieces when that doesn't happen. I do not get it. I am a person who answers promptly but unfortunately she is not the only poor correspondent. I find it difficult with anybody . This seems so hard because I know she knows I like people to answer when I send them nice things. But, like my sister she who seems to have few distractions doesn't always answer. The problem truly lays within me. I feel terrible and feel painfully rejected. I tend to take it very personally when in fact she is just that way. Today, I have vowed , since I feel that way not to email her any thing except answers to hers. I felt I wasn't doing a good job of keeping up with her but if it doesn't register with her then there is no point. I just wish I could put my wounded soul back together again and dismiss it.
