> Yeah. When I'm feeling bad I tend to take things personally too... But I think (I think) I'm pretty good at noticing that I am taking it overly personal. That doesn't get rid of the feeling completely but it can help make it more manageable. And talking about it and getting some reassurance can help even more so.

Did somehow that come across as my saying that I expected you to acknowledge them?
No no no, I was saying the opposite, I wanted to make sure you knew that when someone is in a bad state I never expect a reply, or even an acknowledgment.. I don't anyway, but especially not then.Have a good day, or at least a good coffee : )
