"I never found out what her problem was. (I never contacted her again, obviously). The couple of former colleagues I asked refused to tell me either. It killed me for a bit, until I finally had the epiphany that it doesn’t become my problem until she’s prepared to at least tell me what the problem is. Up until then, the problem is 100% hers and I have better things to think about."
