" She sounded very unhappy online. I tried to cheer her up, but she continued to feel depressed. Was it something I said or done? I can't remember. It was getting late and I had to jump off line. I still couldn't stop worrying about her. Is she alright? Has she calmed down? I received no word from her from my phone. No call. No text. Nothing. She is not replying to me. She isn't even picking it up when I try to call her. I can't visit her. She lives in another state. I lose lack of sleep because I can't stop worrying about her. I want to go there and make sure she is ok. I want to see with my own eyes if she is ok. I want to prevent her from hurting herself. All the thoughts my mind races through accompanied by the silent of the night and my heart pounding in my chest. A 'wall' is keeping me from seeing her now, from going to her and taking care of her.
Someone online is unhappy, someone you know. All you can do is text them, talk to them on a computer screen instead of talking to them face to face, keeping your eye out on them so they dont do anything foolish.
I trust her. She knows better than to do anything drastic. So why can't I stop worrying for her safety? We can only do so much for someone online. All we can do is instant message and text and hope they reply. I lose sleep because I'm scared that she might do something. Its like playing 'the waiting game', but waiting just causes more anxiety for you...I await her texts or emails. Just one text. one email...just to know that you are alright...
...
...My phone vibrates. I pick it up...
Its her. She is fine. I keep her on the phone for as long as possible, not wanting to let that connection go until Im satisfied that she is alright."

i had a similar experience just recently, though it was my friend who was worried about me and not the other way around. It really did feel good to hear him again, despite the fact we just texted. He made me feel safe, and for that I'm too thankful to express in words. sigh. i miss him...
