If you’re trying to put your feet on the ground but can’t quite reach a firm landing, here’s some more anchoring to pull you from being stuck dwelling within the clouds.
Yes, subtext exists. While it is probable that you have interpreted many things correctly and others not so accurately, you can certify which is which over time (as more concrete and definite answers become more accessible to you). Yes, there are occasions when there’s not much or no meaning at all behind things despite what we’re inclined to believe, but for certain not all is merely to be taken at face value alone. Likewise, there is indeed more to repeated coincidences (or "coincidences"). And yes, there are those who pay extra attention, deciphering and such - just like you.
Moreover, in a world where everyone seems to be in the business of lying, people still exist who do mean what they say. And when in doubt, they can reassure you again.
