I feel like I'm weird...

If someone has to step away from or otherwise excise me from their feed or life for an unspecified amount of time but they come back later, I don't hold the faintest grudge. In fact, my initial response is, "Hey, it's friend! Hello, friend!"

I don't expect anyone to need me in their lives, but I'm always elated by anyone giving me the time of day.

But I've been told that's not normal?

Something something Year of the Dog, I guess, but I do have the same puppy-like energy when people I haven't seen in a while and I was on good terms with at the time reappear!

@tahajin no this is good and everyone can experience this in different ways. this is a healthy way.

freaking out about it and believing that it was your fault or in your control is damaging, but I know folks can be like that. some people try to read into the void too much

not reacting is not equal to not caring. 💜

also I get a lot of anxiety coming back into folks' spheres and wow I probably touched you with a little bit of it but honestly would rather be with than without you.
