Can you share a positive example of where you’ve felt loved?

After reading an email about an auto bill pay, in which it mentions that because it’s an auto bill payment, they are actually taking the money out two days prior to the actual due date. Oh, and the bill was 2$ more. Now I had already received a text message about the bill. So I go on their app to figure out why the bill is now 2$ more. It implies that I’m paying for a device that I was told was free.

So I shoot my daughter a snippy text message. She’s 3 hours behind, so basically she gets awaken and has to start her day with my crankiness. She’s like send me a snapshot of what you’re talking about. She reads the fine details and sends me a message back stating that’s not the case, I am not paying extra for the device.

I feel completely bad because either way, it’s not her fault. I shoot her an apology text, and she texts me back ‘thanks for apologizing and I love you.’
