Story #18 “Emotions”

It almost always starts with love, with warmth, a touch, maybe a snuggle, and moves into a full cuddle. Both are happy, both are calm, both are enjoying the presence of the other. Where does it all go wrong? What changed between the cuddle and the anger? Surely I misread the situation. Have I created this? What have I done or what could I have done differently or what should I do better next time? I cannot think of anything I’ve done wrong, but something snapped between the snuggle and the anger. What did I say? What did I not listen to? How did I move? How did I breathe? How did I look? How did my energy change? I’m over analyzing my whole world, but something was tweaked between the positive touch and the negative one. We both should be benefiting from this, yet only one of us is controlling this. One is finding comfort while the other is having their well-being put to the side. Both need comfort though! Something went wrong between the warmth and the anger. Ground must be stood, respect must be given, no one did anything to deserve this sort of treatment. Certainly not I. All has been given, including the anger of one…though now that anger is shared by two. For the disrespectful one’s anger has bled over to the other. All has been lost between the love and the anger.
