They key word seems to be "overwhelmed". All of this other gal's drama overwhelmed you. Intense emotion can cause switching, and that probably did happen. Nothing to be ashamed about. It happens to folks like us. It's over. You are calmer. And there is no "good" reason to torment yourself about it.

Focus on today, on Thursday. What can you do to make it a better day. I'd say you are off to a good start by coming here and posting.

Look at what you can learn form the experience. Maybe you need to avoid getting pulled into other's difficult situations? You have already re-defined your boundaries with this guy and that is a good and positive thing.

The reality is there are still things that can trigger you. That is true for most of us. You are not a bad person because of that! Let it go. Today is a new day.

Folks here understand and accept you just the way you are.

My wish for you is that you will choose not to beat yourself up over what happened. It is done.

take care Jennifer,
Judee
