anxious because we watched the lady-next-door's dog over the weekend and it escaped from her yard while she was gone. We were devastated, but kept looking and low and behold, we found her.. Her son came to pick her up tonight and shortly after he left the mother herself came over. She looked upset that we were upset (although we weren't) and told us her son told her we would never watch the dog again. We never said such a thing! What a brat! Why would he would plant such nonsense into him mom's head and perhaps cause tension between us? Ugh.
This is how socialization goes for me all the time. I do everything I can to be honest, unselfish and go out of my way for people but it still leaves me all anxious and upset, like I did something wrong. Even though I know I didn't do anything wrong, I still just feel... dirty? Is that a decent way to describe that feeling? I don't know.
