I was busy again on Day 18 but it was a different day today. He called me today in the morning, and it changed the whole course of my day (almost). And just for your information, the call wasn't for answering “the” question, it was for a general catch up.
So, I am generally starting my day and he calls to shuffle my mind. He didn't say anything to make me feel bad. It was my own saturation point today. He has been calling quite a few times since last week and I was handling it just okay. But I didn't think it through, and my frustration was conspicous today.
He did ask me later if I was okay and I said yes, because I did not want to involve him in my emotional life anymore. I guess that's the only progress point for today (not letting him decide/act on my emotional vulnerability).
Rest, everything went fine. I felt like a part of this process again which was okay. And it definitely makes me feel stronger when I leave all this and get back to work. At least, I am wasting (almost) ZERO time in all these thoughts and activities now!
