Do I have that right?

EXACTLY
now I can figure out how I really feel about things (besides just anger) & I can figure out how to best solve any issues.
I had a person I knew from high school & college contact me a couple of years ago on FB messenger. Every time I interfaced with him, I came away feeling like my peace & balance in my life was being disrupted. I let it slide to start with. Then I kept noticing it & confronted & set my boundaries. Distanced without blocking at that point. He tried to reconnect & that unbalanced feeling returned so I just blocked him totally. Before I was aware of how I felt, I would just let stuff like that slide forever probably because my whole life was so unbalanced & couldn't always pinpoint the cause. Having a quiet, peaceful life really helps in analyzing the causes of the emotions experienced
