[QUOTE="New Leaf, post: 675948, member: 19522"] It is okay Nomad, we live in [I]such a fast changing world[/I]. I have some very dear friends who I have not gotten together with in a while. I love them to pieces, but since I have been battling with my two d cs addiction and drama, [I]then not[/I], the whole ups and downs of it, plus hubs illnesses, I just do not have the chutzpah, to engage. I suppose it is a hole that I need to dig myself out of. I have spoken over the phone, and texted occasionally, and am grateful that my friends understand. All of this can be so tiring, mentally and physically. Then there is just the part where I become guarded about what I share, not because I don't trust folks, I just do not want to rain on their parade, you know? I am in an Eeyore phase, with the holidays, don't want to dampen anyone else's spirits....So, I kind of cloister myself. It is not unusual for me to need alone time. It is a regrouping, physically, mentally and spiritually speaking. I do not mean to shut people out, just need some vital time to rebuild, after all of the chaos. I do not like to be around people, when I am not feeling myself..... This may be the case for your friend, or not? Your response is what matters, you have been kind and loving to call her. Sometimes folks just get out of sorts and a gesture of caring and understanding, makes all of the difference in the world. leafy [/QUOTE]
