Guest guest Posted April 21, 2008 Report Share Posted April 21, 2008 Hi all, I've been pretty stressed lately. I'm working long hours, am worried about my long-term relationship (whether my partner has had enough of problems in our relationship and will leave), my therapist has been unavailable for awhile (3 members of his partner's family have cancer), and I'm not really sure what to do. One of the things capping it off is that I'm REALLY angry at my nada (probably the first time I'm feeling it). And I need to use this to make sure I learn to start setting boundaries (I've never really done this before with anyone). So for the moment, I'd really like to go NC with her. I get a once a week email, and then it's another thing to stress me out (even if there is nothing bad in it, I'm wondering should I reply, etc...) If I just don't reply (eg send it straight to junk mail) I feel like I'm being rude. And I don't want to cut the relationship off forever. If I don't reply she'll send a second email awhile later saying " did you get my previous email? " Or she'll ring and ask. Maybe on the pretext of checking whether I'm ok. Any suggestions on how I can just get a break for awhile? Thanks, P.Bear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
