Thank you. It didn't feel like I was dealing with it well for the better part of the next day. All I could think was how much I hated that he could still make me feel so badly. The fear and creepiness especially. I've been out for almost a year and quit 'touching the still hot burner' so to speak for almost 7 months. I want to be oblivious and indifferent and I'm not.
But my inner voice has changed...A LOT. It changed from how can he still make me feel this way to why am I making myself feel this way?! No matter his intent with the stare down. Then the bad feeling ended. We are progressing even when it doesn't feel like we are and that is amazing! None the less, I'd like to know if those triggers ever go away?!
