Don’t let sympathies blind you to the fact someone must take responsibility for actions. It ensures a mistake won’t happen again.
You thought assuming the worst would protect your feelings, but you wound up discouraging someone’s interest instead. It’s not too late to backtrack.
You hate dotting i’s and crossing t’s but diligence pays off. Not only will everything be in place but it takes people by surprise.
So many people talk at once that it’s hard to hear straight. Run things passed an old friend who isn’t involved and see what she thinks.
You laid the trail of breadcrumbs and people will come around to your way of seeing things. How they do that is their own business.
Even though you’re not feeling very social, get out and about. Nothing bolsters your mood and spirits faster than a change of scene.
