Why is this happening to me?

1 Answer

Answer :

Here I am. I know long distance is not the same as in person, but I am happy to read whatever you are willing to type, and I will give you the best feedback I can. I am sorry you have the problem you do with the people you know. It is a fact that lots of people simply do not know how to give their thoughts about someone else’s concerns. I am willing to bet the people you know don’t do that because of uncaring, but only because they are clumsy about helping.
