For what it's worth, I don't think you're being a jerk. It can be a bit frustrating, dealing with stubborn people, and... I do realize I'm being stubborn right now.
It's just... I've been dealing with guilt like this, over even the most ridiculous things, for most of my life. Even though I know your advice and the advice of others is valid, and I do appreciate everyone trying to help... it's just difficult, trying to push back the bad feelings that have been around for that long. Like pushing a boulder up a hill.
I'm terribly sorry if this sounds like just some ridiculous sob story, I... don't mean for it to come off that way. This is the first time I've ever really been able to talk about these things that have been bothering me, even with my family, so I'm kind of... stumbling.
I want to thank you, though. The venting does help to blow this all over. And... thank you. For being so blunt.
[Elsa are you really thanking someone who got annoyed at you...]
I appreciate everyone's kind words, but sometimes, I think it helps just as much to get a metaphorical smack on the head. if that... makes any sense at all.
