I'm episcopalian.
Okay, I'm a young female & I used to have a crush on my priest, and wanted to be his friend. Well, kind of b/c I'm really quiet & introverted so I don't like to talk a lot are hang out with people. It was all in my head basically.
He always pushed me away. One time I built up enough courage to talk to him after the service & say hello & ask how he was doing & he stopped me mid sentence & told me he had to go pick up his kids. I said okay and by. A few minutes later, I saw him talking to someone else for a long time.
When I went to New Orleans where his wife is from, he didn't even tell me he was down there at the same time, even though he had returned my email about a church mailing. His wife had told me, if they ever came down there they would visit me.
One day I wore a fake brand name shirt, I'm poor. And he kept repeating the name diff ways in front of a ppl at church.
Then when he took his sabbatical, I offered to help him pack. He accepted. He was 30 min. late b/c he said he needed boxes. Then, we packed for a couple of hours. During that time he gave me two gifts. One was a mini rug from Africa & the other a 10 y/o old emailing device w/addresses still in it. He said it was old & there was nothing he could do with it. He then said he wasn't doing anything else for the day, and I left w/o him giving me any contact if. I asked him what he planned on doing he said visiting fam, consulting, & kids stuff in Aug.
One time he saw me crying b/c I was really hurt about something. He didn't acknowledge my tears.
He has said and written to me good things like I'm such a good soul, he's never seen me be mean to anyone, & I have a lot of talents & abilities. But he never acted like it.
