Recipe for When Youre Worried Your Friend Is Mad At You She says everything is okay, but shes short, avoiding eye contact, and doing that enforcer thing with her arms where she folds them without tucking in her hands... bottom line is, shes mad. You want to make it right, but you have no idea what you did. It feels awful when your friend is acting like shes upset with you, especially if you dont know why. Lets back it up and see if we cant get to the bottom of this. Yield: 1 serving diffused mental anguish Ingredients 1 cup patience ½ cup interpersonal knowledge 2 lbs space 1 lb kindness 2 tbsp awareness 1 tsp reality zen to taste Instructions Begin by lining pan with a baseline of reality. All you know for a fact is that shes mad about something, and shes not talking about it. Dump space in mixing bowl and set to churn. Fold in patience and slow mixer to lowest setting. Shes telling you with her actions that she needs distance. As frustrating as it is that she wont just tell you whats going on, respect the warning signs and take a step back. In a separate bowl, melt awareness until soft. How much of her reaction is about you and how much of it is about the fact that youre making everything about you when she just wants to be left alone? Add in interpersonal knowledge and whisk until blended to the consistency of perspective. Feed perspective into larger mixing bowl and blend. What else is going on in her life that could be causing her stress? Pour batter in pan and sprinkle zen on top. Bake until mixture has risen. The truth is when you screw up, you know you screwed up. If you cant think of what you did wrong, chances are it was nothing and you are caught in the crossfire of something outside your purview. Allow cake sufficient time to cool off before attempting to remove from the pan. Youre not crazy -- clearly something is bothering her. But its in both of your best interests to wait for her to come to you when shes ready. Frost with kindness. Its when people act the worst that they are in the most need. Letting her know youre there for her is the best thing you can do right now. The rest is up to her. What recipe do you cook up when youre having a problem in a relationship?
