I am tempted to reach out to this girlfriend I've been talking about on here, the one I think who is self-centered. I guess I am hoping someone here will stop me.

I am home alone on a day off with not much to do except my taxes. I like connecting with people. It's not for a lack of connection. I was with a bunch of my friends IRL yesterday. I guess it's that I am alone at home. I am also guessing because she's depressed, she's not reaching out and that perhaps I should reach out to her to see if she's Ok.

Maybe I am a co-dependent. I don't know. I hate mental health labels. But if I do reach out, I suppose I am enabling this one-sided friendship even further, whereby I am still supporting her mostly and not getting much in return.. feeding into her self-centeredness.

Maybe I just need to keep busy today instead.
