Sometimes you can be unaccepting of another’s feelings because your own similar feelings will resonate with theirs. Likewise, when another person refuses to engage with your feelings, it is their own feelings that they are trying to avoid. Maybe it’s time that we all let go of pushing against our own feelings, and just let them express within us. They actually diminish when they are permitted to digest.

This is the #1 think I’ve noticed. Wanting to avoid grieving/ sad people because of the pain it triggers within myself when I am around them. The damn begins to crack and the levies may not hold so I do everything possible to avoid them even though what I want beyond the pain is to be there for them.
This is so true, good point on this one.
