[quote=Anonymous]Are you prying? Do you gossip around her (which means she knows she can’t trust you to keep HER confidence)? Do you have misguided expectations of her—like asking if she has a boyfriend instead of leaving the door open that she might have a girlfriend? Generally speaking, back off. Be there but don’t be pushy or have an agenda. Let her come to you. Have you hidden or denied anything, like family abuse or alcoholism? At some point, the little pitchers with big ears grow up and see dysfunction. I’m not saying this is true for you, but as yourself—is there a family dynamic or secret that she may be wise to now?
