It is my firm belief that one of the worst things you can do to a person is fail to communicate with them, whether it be about good, bad, depressing--it doesn't matter, just tell that person. For myself at least, nothing hurts more than being ignorant. When left to my own devices, I overthink, I make up a billion different scenarios and possibilities as to what may be happening, and I drive myself insane. I understand it can be scary, and you don't want to hurt that person's feelings, but more often than not, failure to tell them will only damage them worse. And I get that maybe it is up to the person to simply ask, but sometimes they don't want to be seen as obsessive or annoying, and so they instead suffer in silence with their hands over the keyboard screaming. So just do everyone a favor and if you have something on your mind, just come out and say it honestly and fully. Spare everyone the emotional turbulence.
