Something may be distracting a close friend or love partner so much that this person isn't very good company. Nor will your friend want to share the source of their preoccupation. Don't try to have a long conversation about it. Back off and let your friend come to terms with it alone. Sometimes that's all you can do.
Today was a rough day not for me in the slightest but for two of my "friends". One had a pretty bad day at work of running around and taking photos of people feeding dolphins but he didn't mind sharing his preoccupations with the difficulty of work.
My other friend however (and this is where it gets weird) he had a pretty bad day with family issues and family emergencies and having to drive home from Gainesville and such. He had been wanting to call me for quite a while and actually had a panic attack the night before about everything. I tried to have a conversation about it with him and it just wasn't working. I said how I felt on certain topics and it only seemed to be making things worse and I just felt like I didn't need to talk to him for a long time and that's hard to express to someone. I think I really did need him to come to terms with it alone and figure out his own path. Weird that I would just get done with that conversation and read over my horoscope again.
Weirder so that I had to film my entire video project through all of this. Does the drama ever end. Looks like I'm not going to bed for a little till I can fall asleep soundly.
