Am I being unduly paranoid or am I , as I suspect, alone in this relationship?
From me to Quiet Man this morning:
Sorry I wasn't very talkative last night. I've been suffering from really terrible insomnia lately, only getting about 4 hours a night this past week so have been really exhausted. I was really tired last night, which is why I sent you the text early to say I was heading to bed, as it was I could barely keep my eyes open last night while you were talking. I'd also had a couple of glasses of wine in the hopes that they'd help me sleep, which I'd actually drank quite fast so they went straight to the head - and it wasn't functioning well to begin with!
Hope your day at work is going a bit better than the last few, just wanted to apologise for being quite so detached last night.

And the reply:
I'm sorry too. I did not see your text, until I looked at my phone this morning.
I felt bad that I'd not spoken to you on the Monday, when I intended to call.
Hope you have a good day and manage sometime soon to sort your sleep patern out. I feel very helpless, I want to help out, but I'm in the same position of being very tired too.
Still having a layers of an onion time of things at the moment - soon to be resolved with a well placed screwdriver.
Take care

And a statement: I have decided that I am utterly and completely shite at relationships. Maybe meaningless sex with relative strangers (as opposed to strange relatives) is the way forward.
