I don’t know if this happens to you with your family, your friends, or whoever but when I have a problem or an argument where my mom, in this case, gets mad at me or insults me or whatever, I never talk back to her harshly. I always respond in the calmest tone possible. I’m incapable of getting angry with her because I love her and she has her own problems, and I understand that.
After a while, later in the day, she comes to me realizing her mistake and what she said to me. She comes over and hugs me, and I hug her back in silence. But since I’m taller than her, I just end up staring off into nothing. It’s like I dissociate my mind isn’t very good at processing that reaction or that physical contact. I just stay there dissociating, staring at a fixed point for however long it lasts.
Then she asks me if I’m mad at her, and I tell her the truth: I’m not. And don’t get me wrong this only happens to me with my mom. It’s something involuntary (not the part about not getting angry or reacting, but the part about not knowing how to react and just staring into nothing). Human emotions ig!!!
