One reason I barely slept last night was that a friend made me really uncomfortable last night. He behaved very differently than he does when Murray is with us. Too much touching and telling me ‘if you were single’. Of course I smiled, stopped drinking, edged away and 1/3
left early. It really pissed me off and also it annoys me that I didn’t feel I could say in the moment ‘stop it I don’t like it’. We are both huggers, at first he was being his usual friendly self and for a while I thought I was just tired and over sensitive. Typical. 2/3
So now I face that dilemma: do I tell him ‘hey you made me feel uncomfortable, please don’t do it again’? Do I wait until next time we are out, see how he behaves? Do I just let the friendship fade out? I tell people all the time to call it out, so I guess that’s what I’ll do.
