I had a dream about old T last night. We were in a cafe/book store. I was sitting with some family and friends in one area and I looked up and she was sitting with her two girls at a table directly across from me. She caught my eye and I just slowly turned my body around so that my back was facing her. I could feel her staring at the back of me. I got up and went to the restroom b/c I had a feeling that I just needed to get away from her. She caught my eye again as I walked by her table and I could see a deep deep sadness in her eyes. I fought back tears and headed to the restroom. Then I heard her call my name. I turned around and she was at the other end of the book store calling for me to get something for her but I couldn't hear what. I threw my hands up in the air and told her to leave me alone. I went to the restroom and when I came out of the stall she was there by the sink. Tears burned my eyes and started streaming down my face. I asked her to please leave me alone b/c it hurt me to look at her. She started crying as well. She looked at me, and said "Do you have any idea of what I have been through these last couple of months?" I remember I felt so angry that she would say that. I started yelling and I mean screaming at her...I remember exactly what I said to her in my dream " I don't care about what you have been through. Because it's not about you! It's about me. You told me that repeatedely..that I never needed to worry about you b/c I was who mattered and it was about me. But then you did the opposite and you hurt me."
That is all I remember.
She seems to overwhelm my mind in waves. I will go for awhile without thinking about her as much and then all the sudden I can't get her out of my head and I am filled with constant sadness and fighting the urge to call her.
I guess its all part of the process....

Liese,

I think it could stem from a few different things. I think first, that new T and I have talked alot about what it did to me when she contacted me when she heard about my Dad and the heart surgery. I was just starting to feel some healing and it re-opened me back up and broke down the strenght I had built to not have contact with her.

I think also, that I struggle alot with feeling like she let me go so easily. Maybe I almost wish that she would try to track me down b/c it would mean she cares and I am convinced she thinks I am trash and was glad to wash her hands of me. But then, when she did contact me...it hurt me. Meaning that Jsut seeing words on my phone that had come from her sent me into tears. I know for sure if I saw her or talked to her over the phone it would be more painful than I can handle right now.

Well, thats my take on it...what do you think? I hate dreaming about her. I wish I could control it.
