That's why I think I want to just show up and comfort him. He sounds BAD. I mean BAD. I'm at work so I have to keep from crying but there is not a smile in him. Being on the phone is mad uncomfortable because I'm trying to fill it with meaningless chatter. Everday I ask if I can come over and he says "I'll call you..." and then doesn't. I want to just go. Because he is never gonna say yes. And a lot of times we FEEL like we wanna be alone but once someone just bullies you into letting them in it really does feel better.
I take shit like this so seriously. You have to...
If I've learned anything, sometimes when you want to be there for people, you have to let them have their space for a minute. I'm sure he knows you have his back but give him a little space and let him work things out on his own for a minute.
ReplyDeleteYou're very right. I'm sure he knows I have his back. I just brought him dinner and he really seemed happy to see me. After that he called me on his way to the gym and sounded a bit better. We joked around and I feel better now after seeing him smile!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you went! I was going to suggest just going. I know people who get really low too and I think it is better to be safer. Glad you were able to put a smile on his face. :)
ReplyDeleteYeah I'm glad too. He's down sounding again but its gonna get better.
