So I pretty much went into the Matrix: well sorta
So today we had Health class, and I heard some rumor's before on what was going to happen.
We were going to write down 1 thing about us that nobody would never know, fold it, and place it into a hat. Then somebody would pick a paper out and read it. This is all anonymous by the way and nobody knew who's was who's. One person said they got a card saying that their father physically abuses them. One had a card that said that they are suicidal.
My girlfriend and I had agreed to keep our cards a secret. However we knew each other's handwriting so we knew if we DID get each others. Well you can guess what happened.
Yes, we did get each others cards. I wrote on my card that an adult has threatened to kill me because yes, a gun was pointed at my head with full intent to kill me. However my girlfriend knew so I'm assuming she wasn't that surprised. I peeked at the card to see if it was her handwriting. When I knew for sure it was her's, I figured that she was going to write something light, like I'm so shy I don't have too many friends. Which she is shy, and she has a small group of close friends instead of a large group of not so close friends. But when I read the card I got a huge shock. This is exactly what it said
"Every day I was so nervous of myself. I was losing friends and was wondering what I did wrong. Every day I always feel as if I am a bad person and I look in the mirror and always think, who am I? Every day I cry because I feel as if I'm a failure and that I can't make any friends."
I had to read my card to the class against my own will. After I finished reading, I glanced at her. She had her hands on her face. It was our last class and she left as fast as she could. She passed me when we were heading to the bus. She didn't say a word. She didn't look at me.
I got a text from her that night. It said that she was really sad and didn't relly want to talk, and that she wanted to be left alone for the weekend, and that maybe we could talk tomorrow.
OK, so I know I'm the boyfriend, but I have NO clue what to say. I can motivate her, but I'm just at a loss for words. Imagine if you guys were in my shoes, what would you say? Because right now I' in serious trouble and our relationship could be at stake.
Thank you so much guys. You don't know what it means to me
