Angel Girl, I hope you remember what I told you about setting up expectations of others. Combine that with the conscious thought of always wanting reassurance, and you're setting yourself up for fustration and sadness. I can say that because I'm finally starting to learn this myself. To think how much time I've wasted in which I will never get back. When you keep setting the bar of expectations from others too high, you will never perceive anything positive. And I also told you how I came so close to destroying a special frendship because I projected my own self doubt on to her and accused her of thinking negative things about me that I now know were not true at all. I'm not going to give up hoping that what I keep telling you will sink in.
