[quote=Anonymous]I haven’t read the whole thread so I’m sorry if this has been covered, but one way to approach with a friend is that everyone has possible trauma in their history, and you could be inadvertently triggering someone else’s trauma when you just dump it at inappropriate times/just meeting someone. People who’ve experienced trauma tend to not want to do that to others, so she may react well to that? Like a way of protecting others she doesn’t want to inadvertently harm? I say this as someone who freezes up when certain conversations come out of nowhere, because I wasn’t prepared and now I feel gut punched. [/quote]
