You get shocked and angry but you also begin questioning yourself, "what if I did not do this or why didn't I see this or that to prevent this". You get angry with the other person but also with yourself too. That's hard because it's producing a lot of negative energy that tires you out and you have not been able to take that energy and turn it into something positive. You have always tried to take the energy from angry stress and use that energy. However, since what took place with your father happened, you have not been able to do that.
You still "care" it's in your nature, but, you are now VERY sensitive to anything that happens that resembles being let down. Now when you get angry it hits very deep/to the bone and you don't know what to do with all that negative energy. Plus when someone lets you down, it tends to hit your injured place and triggers you instead of deciding "let go their loss", it becomes YOUR loss.
I have a hard time with this myself. It's important to look at things and be able to embrace "that person is doing this to them self, not me". And sometimes the sad truth is that often as much as we want to we cannot save someone from "themselves".

I can agree with most of this. Why I get so angry with my self is that I trusted people again and it always ends up the same where I end up emotionally injured or emotionally near death. Supporting people here is different than real life. Here we are supporting words that have some type of name attached to them. We don't know who we are talking to, which most of us know that can blow up in your face. But we can click out of it, block that name and words, with a click of a button and not be bothered again by those words and name.
In real life it's not that easy. There's a human you know and are usually around this person at certain times. You develop a trust, then they emotionally stab you through the heart and leave you for emotional death.
