Nahhhh the lamest excuse is just going ghost. No it’s not a good reason to treat people crappy but nothing wrong with having to take the walk alone to figure some things out. Long as you’re being transparent, the other party should understand.https://twitter.com/kaylarwill/status/1011640293475672064 …

Especially if you’re empathetic?! You’ll feel something is wrong. I had to get out of trying to force people to let me help them. It’s not my job. If someone is going through something, that’s all you need to know. Be supportive. Give them the space to gin clarity.

The thing that I DO require of people I consider friends and they’re going through shit is to TELL ME. Do not act like nothing is wrong. I have no issue respecting your space if you say “No. I’m not okay. But I don’t wanna talk about it.” Be okay with people telling you no thanks

That doesn’t mean they don’t think you can help them or that your help is less than. Them wanting to isolate from you has NOTHING to do with how they view you as a person/friend/lover/family member etc.

And on the other side of the game: DO NOT LET YOURSELF SUFFER ALONE FOR THE SAKE OF SAVING FACE. If you don’t have the answers Sway?! Reach. Out. To. Your. Tribe. The lesson goes both ways.
