I mean, it is true that people deal with their problems differently but it can be painful if nothing is explained-
It is admirable the maturity you show in this situation,
I say this because it has happened to me, but it is important to respect the decision of others if they want it that way
Maybe they need some time to think things over, idk
I just want you to not feel bad about it and to know that if you feel bad, I'm here with you even if we don't talk much
