> I totally understand where you're coming from. I would have trouble not sending another email myself. I think you and I are alot alike in that way. The only thing I can suggest is to try to put off doing or saying anything as long as you can, because you might change your mind about it later. I mean, alot of times in retrospect I realize if I had just stayed quiet, things would have worked themselves out. I wouldn't be surprised that if you just tried to adopt the attitude of, "Well, I apologized, if she can't except that, there's not much else I can do", she just might come around.
> And you are not a bad person and do not deserve to be alone. You are a very kind and considerate person. I think like partlycloudy said, we just try to hard. If you really feel like you can't help but email her, try to make yourself wait a week or so. This will give you a chance to calm down a bit, and will give her time as well. Good luck, I'm routing for you!
TexasChicAs tempted as I am to send her another e-mail, I know it would only make things worse. I think at the time she said she forgave me she had no idea about my mental illness and I have great suspicion that a mutual friend of ours, that does know, probably told her. I think now she is scared to death of me and that's why she has backed off from me. I asked the mutual friend if she knew why and she told me that this girl is a Christian and therefore doesn't like any confrontations and she is afraid that if she says something, that I might take it the wrong way and make a big scene. :(
