RM sent me a message that said She has to go to work at 9 tomorrow but she will come see me first.

When I talked to her she said Please understand, your not upset are you?

She is very emotionally sensitive. And probably emotionally intelligent. And pretty emotionally and financially secure. But not emotionally knowledgeable, trained or skilled.

Laura was emotoinally sensitive, emotionally intelligent, emotionally knowledgeable and emotionally skilled, but emotionally insecure, financially insecure.

You have to understand vs Please understand

The former is in a position of power. Like the airport in Utah.

It is five thirty now. Slept for about a half hour. Don't want to stay in this hotel room or hotel anymore. Feel resentful towards RM

- sent me a text at 12:30 last night.woke me up. didn't apologize. says "please understand" instead of i'm sorry n asking how I feel then validating it. I don't want to tell her how I feel, she will feel guilty but she won't be able to say it. She is very sensitive. Example she felt bad for not going with me to the hotel once. Later she said "I feel repentful because I didn't go with you and sent you alone." I tried to talk her out of her feelings. Said "I don't get lost easily, have traveled all around the world etc." But it would have been better to let her talk more, to ask her why. duh. Feel critical of my self how, Hit myself on the head with the palm of my hand a couple of times.

Feel trapped in this hotel room, in this hotel. Two gates and the locked door.You are locked in. Someone has to let you out with a key. They don't even just push a button to release the lock. They have to walk around the corner to do it. So you stand there and wait. And if there is no one there you have to look around for whoever is supposed to be attending the door and reception desk. And if you don't see them you have to make some noise. In some hotels there is a buzzer on the inside, but this only has one on the outside.
