Emotions are so hard. Maybe try to write down and keep a journal of your emotions? Also, I know my emotions change so quickly sometimes. Just because the person became angry this time does not mean they will again next time, too, so don't give up after one time. Also, if we share emotions we feel with someone else and relate the emotions to THAT person (I am not saying you DID this, but just that I have done it) like when we say "YOU made me MAD when YOU…" that often does not go well because the other person just feels defensive. So maybe it will help if you think about and practice ways to share hard and negative emotions in a neutral or positive way, so the other person can hear what you're saying and sympathize… Here are some ways that have helped me do that: "I felt really mad when…" or "When ___ happened, I just felt so hurt…" Still, I often get overwhelmed and blow it and just blurt out my emotions. We're all human! Don't give up. Keep reaching out. One failed attempt does not a failure make. We learn and grow from failures. I fail all the time. But each day is a new day. Good luck!
