Paranoia

Definition

Paranoia is an unfounded or exaggerated distrust of others, sometimes reaching delusional proportions. Paranoid individuals constantly suspect the motives of those around them, and believe that certain individuals, or people in general, are "out to get them." (www.answers.com)

In a nutshell, this describes the feeling I have towards my boyfriend at the moment. Two days have passed since I have last heard from him. In times bygone, whenever he gets quiet for days, something always happens in his family --emergency, sickness, even death. I can't take it when he gets so quiet all of a sudden since we have had a history where he dismissed me outright without giving much of an explanation other than a brief message on one of my social utility pages.

I keep praying and crossing my fingers that he has not changed his mind, that he is okay and just went somewhere, that he would still communicate with me...
