Heya @Birdofparadise8 ,
Good to see you 🙂
I'm glad you had a chat to your aunt and uncle. Without saying you are 'overthinking', maybe it's more about 'jumping to conclusions'? I can't read tone over written text, and I wasn't there when they spoke to you rudely, however, I'm curious to know what this meeting is about. I'd hate for something like this to me hanging over me for weeks. I can certainly relate!
Did I tell you I was once pulled up by a workplace who sent me an email that pretty much said, "You must attend a meeting. Please bring a support person." I felt absolute dread. I rushed to get the meeting time so that it could be done asap. During the meeting, all these allegations were made against me. They asked about the various situations, and when I responded, it all turned out to me nothing... absolutely misunderstood situations by the person that made the complaints.
After the meeting, I thought to myself, "What WAS all that about?" I then went to the person who made the allegations and pretty much organised a meeting to iron things out. It all turned out to be an absolute misunderstanding. I pretty much told the person that I was sorry things came across that way, but it was not my intention at all. If there's anything you want to know, I'm more than happy to talk it through with you.
It's natural for our brains to jump to the worst scenario. Yet allow yourself the time to digest what they say. Don't go in with a negative mindset. Look at it as an appraisal, and perhaps how you could improve.
You CAN do it!
Grrrr, now that uni is in the way. Maybe YOU can organise the time for them lol!
