The first person I'd ask for help about problems among friends is gone now...so I'd like to ask for help here instead.

What should I do about a friend who keeps pushing me away because he thinks I don't care about him anymore? Every time I talked with him it seemed like he misunderstood more and more of my feelings...to the point that he left home in anger. I don't know what to do or say anymore. I'm afraid I'll make things worse.

Kagami, if you're reading this, just come home. Please. We should talk this over.





And...does anyone know of some self-defense trainers? I meant to ask last month, but the black out happened before I could. I'd like to learn more. I need the distraction.

You should think about this in terms of what you need, and what you want, an what life can still be for you.

Take a step back, or try, and look at this situation as if you were someone else.

You are young and intelligent and beautiful and probably far too nice for your own good, Naminé.

If you saw someone like that, like you, struggling to help a person who was doing everything they could to not let them help. Trying to help someone who was leaving them lonely and despondent and desperate...

What would you tell them to do?

I would

I would tell them to find someone who could maybe help. And if that didn't work, then I would tell them to spend time with other people to help them feel better.

That's good advice. You should listen to you.

Though I think the second part is a good idea regardless of whether or not the first is possible.

You've made other friends since you arrived, yes?

text

[redigere]

Yes. A lot of them have texted me so...that covers the first part.

I'm glad to hear it.
So you live with this boy you're...struggling with, right?

text

[redigere]

Yes. He and Riku are from the same world as me, so we all live together.

But he's left home and he's staying with a different friend of ours now...

text

Okay. That's probably a good thing.

Distance can sometimes make it easier to work your way through a problem and figure out what your plan will be.

I hope that's the case here too...she tells me he hasn't ran away from her place yet, so I suppose that means he's fine...

text

[voicelessresistance]

Maybe.
So take this time to focus on you. Alright?

[redigere]

I'll try.

Thank you, Miss Red.
