I lost it!

United States
August 21, 2019 5:14am CST
It was a very long and trying day at work. A friend started calling ten minutes before I got off. I was irritated because my friend knows very well when I get off and that I then check my family. I didn't answer the first time or the second time or the third time. I called right when I got off because I thought it must be an emergency. No emergency. She asked me a question and I answered it and she said "No, no, no, I can't take you being all logical on me." I said "That's who I am. I have to go." I hung up and turned off the phone.

Oh wow. I don't blame you for "losing it." I probably would have done the same.

I do need to learn more patience. I wasn't very nice.

@Ghosthere2 I have thought of that with my mother being in my care now. God is teaching me patience.

If she was truly your friend she would know when to call you and that your routine is to check on your family after work. I understand your frustration.

Yes, and we all make mistakes. I shouldn't be whining about it. I am trying to get more positive.

She is a good friend, just had a bad day and I over reacted equally as much. I have some apologizing to do.

i would have just sent you a text, instead of calling again and again, if it's not that urgent.

Well, to read a text I have to find the phone, find my glasses and warm my hands to get the screen open. I should just get over it.

@Ghosthere2 maybe you were harsh but you made it clear you don't like being joked at working hours

I am not certain. I was too rude to even considerate it. I guess I was probably worse than she.

I don't have friends so I can't quite give any advice.

Yes and my response was not great either. Hopefully, we will greatly improve.
