Manipulation?
Morning
I've just spent an entire weekend doing what I wanted to do, for me.
Having been joined at the hip for so long, I thought it would be hard to get into my old life again, catching up with friends I've been neglecting and remembering what it is that I like to do. Turns out it's not!
Last night my partner had arranged to go out with some friends and meet up with mine. Of course, when the time came she didn't want to go. Normally I'd settle down for an evening on the couch, but not last night. I picked up her friends, met up with mine and had a lovely evening in a pub in Glasgow.
This morning she was so sweet and attentive (even got up before I left the house!) that I left feeling uneasy, like I'd made her feel guilty, or left her to get lonely.
This is nuts. I know I'm taking care of myself so why do I feel like a manipulating bitch?
