Recently, a new friend gave me a nightgown for a birthday gift. The swirling blue and green shapes were perfect, but the material was nylon and I only wear cotton for sleeping. I didn’t know if I should say something to my gift-giving friend or not. I didn’t want to hurt her feelings. I finally told her the truth. Her eyes welled up and she said this was just confirmation of her ineptitude and why she had problems with relationships and how she suffered from depression.
