Confused Mood
Friday, June 26, 2009

I am so confused right now... I've been living with my uncle for a few months now, and things have been going well. But over the past few weeks, I've had moments where I was really afraid that he was going to act like my step-dad (my step-dad yelled a lot, criticized everything I did, and was inappropriate most of the time). I know that my uncle would never treat me the way my step-dad did, and I'm really confused as to why I would think that he would.

It's just been a few moments, like when I was cooking dinner the other day, I broke a plate, and got so scared that he was going to yell at me as my step-dad did. There have been a few other small things like that, and I don't understand why I've gotten so scared about it. My uncle has shown any signs that he was going to do something, he never gets mad at me...

    Fear will amplify any situation to be more serious than it really is. You're uncle sounds as though he truly loves you and he's taking everything in stride.

    You concentrate of being the best neice possible; build your self esteem; and keep looking forward to your future because it's as bright as you are.
