bulimia girl rejects seeing people Posted: 10-21-04 00:52am
Hi, in the last few months i've been
seeing a girl on & off. We got a little
closer and she told me she has bulimia and
that she doesn't want me around because
she wants to deal with it on her own. I
know from reading a bit about this
disorder that pushing people away is
fairly common for bulimics. I want to be
there for her and i've told her many
times, so we seem to get closer but then
she backs out again. She says that she
is afraid to let anyone get to know her.
So because I was worried about her even
though she told me she doesn't want to see
a Dr. I found a Dr. Who specialises in
ed's and let her know about booking an
appt. With him. She told me that she
called and booked it thanked me & told me
to get lost & that she doen't want to
speak with me for at least a week.
Question? Should I leave her be for a
week and risk her distancing herself from
me even more? (this way perhaps she won't
open up to me at all afterwards) or
should I call her and try smoothing things
over and continue trying to help her, or
would that be to stressfull for her?
