Help me sleep, feeling sad

6 replies

Sadtonight22 · 09/10/2022 21:44

I’m feeling really down tonight. Had an argument with a guy I really like and I’ve been seeing for about 3 months. He is like my kindred spirit but I think I’ve fucked it up. I feel physically sick and my heart is racing. How on Earth am I going to sleep. I should be seeing him tomorrow but he said he doesn’t know if he wants to see me 😥He took some things I said the wrong way and it just spiralled out of control, nothing I said afterwards made any difference. I’m just so sad right, having a little cry.

Not sure why I’m posting but I just needed to tell someone.

Sorry this happened. Don't have any advice but didn't want to leave you working a reply.
Maybe a hot chocolate and a movie?

Honestly? I have learned one thing in 60 years of life and that is if men are keen, you will need a flamethrower to fight them off. If you have "said" or "done" anything unintentional it should be get over-able. If it isn't, he is not the man for you. Honestly.

Oh you poor thing. Let it all out, that's what we're here for. If it's something he took the wrong way, there's a chance he'll be thinking about what you said. He may even confide in a friend and that friend will tell him what you meant and explain to him that he took it the wrong way. And if he doesn't and it's over, then it's crushing, but you have to move on and you will with time. Take your time and get your head down to sleep if you can. I hope you feel better soon, OP xx

Unless you called him some horrible names, he shouldn't be overreacting but you really shouldn't be having arguments when you've only been dating for 3 months. Is he easily offended? Touchy? Do you feel you can't e yourself without filtering your comments? If so he's not your kindred spirit. Try not to catastrophies but be wary of his behaviour going forward if you do continue to date.

Thank you for your kind words. He is a very strong willed person, typical characteristic of the profession he is in, and once he has something made up in his mind that’s it. I just think I’ve pushed too far. I’ve never met anyone so like me, we get on like a house on fire. It’s the first time we’ve ever had any crossed words before. I feel like getting a drink but know that isn’t the answer and won’t help me at work tomorrow.
