not quite my tempo

My boyfriend of 6 months and I had tons of travel plans set up all the way through the fall. We were supposed to go on an awesome trip in the mountains last week; things were great and we texted and talked every day about it excitedly. Last minute we canceled bc it was the right thing to do. About that same time he put a note in his calendar to make sure to be available for me the day of my mom’s big surgery (today). A few days later he *texted* me that he needed time and space to focus on himself. Luckily I had many supportive friends who were there for me today instead. (Mom’s okay for now! Just please stay home!)
