T/W: Discussions of an unspecified, serious health issue currently in its infancy. Mentions of pushing people away due to feelings of unworthiness. Initial anger from the speaker that softens and turns comforting as soon as the speaker reveals their circumstances. It's been three months since you began a relationship with a close, long-time friend. Things have been wonderful so far. But a couple of weeks ago, you had a health issue that has thrown a lot of your life into question. Unsure of how to handle your still recent relationship, you traveled out of town to see a specialist before talking to your boyfriend about what's going on. The more he tried to reach you, the harder it became to confront your fears of him leaving you in your time of need. After two weeks of no contact and arriving back home, you finally call him to talk.
