    My family members who do the guilt tripping are usually feeling very guilty themselves. It is wrong but they try to shift the guilt to make the pain bearable for themselves.

    Gosh! I sooooo agree with this!


    And congrats on getting the email sent! :T

    Annoyed now - replied to her email saying what time I was in this evening. That was over 2 hours ago and haven't heard anything back. So now I have no idea if she's planning on just turning up at some point, or what it's about still.

    ETA: and was looking forward to a night in to catch up with last night's Poldark :D

    Ugh that's so annoying tea. I hate it when people want to come round but don't give a time. Its so hard to relax.

    We've got someone coming around to give us a quote do some work on our house. Was supposed to be coming at 7 but now is coming at 8. Grrr. I may infect him on purpose.

    Also, a bit annoyed. I had a dream about a friend of mine and realised I hadn't heard from him for a while. So I sent him a facebook message. He's read it but didn't bother to reply and now I feel like an idiot.

    Give him a week, code, before you beat yourself up.
    :heartsmil When you find people who not only tolerate your quirks but celebrate them with glad cries of "Me too!" be sure to cherish them. Because these weirdos are your true family.

    He may just be busy! I can read fb messages on my phone but replying to them on there is a nightmare so I tend to wait until I'm on laptop/tablet. He might have been having a sneaky read during a boring meeting but can't get away with typing a reply at work. He might not want to look like he has nothing else to do by replying straight away.... loads of reasons, none of which involve you being an idiot :)

    Nah. I sent the message days ago, so if he was going to reply, he would have done. It doesn't matter really. Just annoying.

    Am really irritated now. I replied at 1pm saying I'd be in by 5.30. Have heard nothing since...how rude! Also annoyed as now FOH has come back and made a mess. Why is he even still living here??
