my girlfriend/FP was asleep or at work basically the entire day today. we just got over a rough patch where she needed space and didn’t speak to me for a bit, so i am especially sensitive to no contact (more so than i already am). 

while i was a bit anxious while she was offline and not replying, thinking she hated me or was mad at me again, i held it together and finished my own work, walked the dog, played video games with an old friend, etc. i refrained from spamming and becoming negative in our messages. 

she came back eventually and we set a date to see a movie tomorrow. and i’m just glad i was able to not overwhelm her again and do my own thing and be productive. to reference someone else on this sub: today was a big emotional bicep curl. hurts at first, worth it and amazing later.
