DEAR ANNIE: A few weeks back, I had to cancel plans to visit my friend and attend a musical festival in Wisconsin. My employers basically told me that if I went, there wouldn’t be a job for me when I came back. While I only needed a couple days off for the festival, my job was in jeopardy. I was devastated for a very long time, especially since my best friend “Janice” surprised me with the festival tickets and airfare. No one hurt, cried or felt more guilty over this than me.
As I was being operated on, Janice texted my daughter, “Savannah,” that she was coming to help out. Savannah and my son both agreed I would not want this but would check with me. Savannah relayed that to her. I, too, texted Janice the exact same thing that night. THEN, knowing her plans were to leave the day after my surgery, I texted her at 5 the next morning and, in a very detailed manner, reiterated how detrimental it would be for me to have a visitor, especially one staying for many nights. I didn’t hear back and was relieved to know she would honor my wishes/boundaries.
I was angry and, ONCE AGAIN, explained my wishes and was VERY firm telling her not to come. The next day, she texted that she was in a hotel half a mile down the road. I was both livid and creeped out. This is emotional manipulation. All I want is to heal in peace, which I have been unable to do. This entire scenario has me so worked up I can’t rest. My heart is racing, and I can’t sleep at night.
