A certain person showed up at the shelter site I was at last night. I haven't seen him in two years and didn't even know if he was still in the program. He evidently is, and this could be a problem. He did something to me two years ago. It's going to be hard being around him and not be emotional. I had a phone call at shelter office in September while still reacting to my ex-husband from labor day night. The person who called me was a new member of the shelter system and asked me out(to a movie/dinner/motel). I had 1/50 second long flashback to what this other guy did two years ago.
I don't know how much of a problem this could be for me, but I will find out. Perhaps exposure to him will turn into good. It's not like I'll see him every day, either. I'm still in the "shock" of seeing him again, so I don't know how things will turn out. If it is a problem, then I may reconsider the housing/shelter option.
