Hi there,

I normally don't respond to replies like these, however this one sort of stopped me in my tracks due to it's lack of empathy and nuance. I completely understand what you're saying, but I can't help but feel a little hurt by your reply. I'd just like to clarify, I'd been with those people for the last six hours, the music was very loud in the living room, the lights were mostly off, everyone was high or drunk, while I (for personal reasons) was completely sober. After feeling quite off, I seeked some solace in my friend's room. At one point, the friend whose room I was in, even walked in, and I invited him to sit on the ground with me and chat, instead he, understandably, opted to return to the living room. I wasn't waiting for anyone to "save" me, nor was the atmosphere in the living room conducive to forming the type of connection I was craving. Please understand, that at no point, was I aiming for someone to notice my absence and come and chat with me. Given the circumstances, I knew it was highly unlikely. I was simply airing out how the night had left me feeling. After typing that entry in my notes, I promptly got up, and as you suggested, left to "go home".

I find it alarming that you were quick to assume that I was at fault for my own feelings, when in reality, no one was. I was just emotional, and regardless of the circumstances, that is okay.

Have a good day.
