She's upset for perfectly legitimate reasons, a family member is ill, she's ill.

I don't know what to do, the conversation is really awkward (Text), she seems to be really off with her replies (Understandable) - I'm battling to find something to say, all ideas are gone.

'You seem to need some time alone, I'm just a message away should you need me, sleep well'

'Oh, that's all you know to do..'

Well yes, I'll admit, that's usually what I do, because when I ask her what she wants, she just gives the usual 'I don't know'

Okay..... So I have nothing to run on here, apart from leave her be, and be there should she need me, I've stuck by this everytime, and in my opinion seems effective.

So I ask her, so what should I do? What do you want? What will comfort you?

No reply.

...What do I do? I'm offering my company, but leaving the stagnated, difficult and detrimental situation.


I don't think I'll do the usual notion of initiating the conversation in the morning, I'll see if she's cooled off.

I think she just wants you to be there, even if there's nothing to say and she doesn't know what she wants...she just wants you there.

From joy to sorrow, yesterday to tomorrow, you've been there. Friends like you are rare, your touch is so gentle,
You're my guardian angel.
Like a blossoming flower spreading your wings in grace, filling my heart with power
by feeling your embrace.

Wherever the wind may blow, we will overcome this war, in times happy or sore, I will never let you go.
With a gentle warm heart and a will of stone, We'll never be apart, You'll never be alone. - John <3
