Virus

Got a text from someone today that I used to be super close to...they said:  "we have a virus".   Scared me at first, because I thought they were saying that they had contracted the corona!    But they were referring to a break in our relationship.  Yes it can be compared to a virus for it spreads, grows and left unchecked it mutates and becomes deadly.  They want to fix it and while there are conversations that are difficult to have, the alternative is to back off and let the relationship die.  Waiting for the right setting to have the conversation.
