I can relate to a lot of these issues. I tend to feel things really strongly myself, and I get really hurt if I get rejected.
What helps me feel less disappointed is if I have another plan, at least it is if people are cancelling on you. I used to feel really hurt if people cancelled, but it would help if I had something I had already planned to do, even if it was something lame like getting my oil changed or buying a new CD or something. I think it helps you stop thining about it, and the feelings don't consume you. Sometimes I just pop in a movie and get take out. I know that you're a lot more social than I am, but it's always good to relish the times that you have to focus on you, as busy as you are.
I sure hope I have not let down your expectations...I know I have very low energy levels and can only do so much social stuff, but you will always be my friend and a priority in my life. Love ya, girl!
I do know that I need more time to myself. I guess not it's kind of hard though bc I don't get a lot of personal time with my friends (bc of my schedule) so when I do make plans it seems to hurt me even more when they fall through....I dunno, still working through this though!
Very good suggestions though on having a back up plan, I might try that sometime!
I appreciate that. Just wisdom learned from the Father. We don't need to seek perfection within ourselves but seek the perfect will of God. Too many people seek perfection, fall short of it, and then give up far too soon.
