The speed at which you’re experiencing some surprising emotional shifts should give you pause. Knee-jerk reactions and split-second judgments almost always backfire, particularly when they’re based on half-truths and suppositions. You might have some underlying cause for concern, but temper your response or it could be seen as way out of line and won’t help solve the problem.
