Does this feel close to something you’ve lived? Tell your own part. What you tell becomes one page, yours to keep.
The situation
Trying to share something can feel rejecting when the other person repeatedly ends the conversation before the speaker is finished.
What it’s like
The unfinished words and abrupt goodbye can leave someone feeling unwanted or unable to have ordinary attention.
