How do you learn to trust someone after they get "emotional"?

It's mostly women I have this problem with, platonic or otherwise. I do something they don't like, then they fly off the handle, and then suddenly we're friends again like nothing happened? I'm sitting here scratching my head like "what the actual f***?!?!"

I try to keep my distance so I can process, but then they try to fix it and then as soon as I let my guard down it happens all over again. Any advice?

There's nothing wrong with being 'emotional.' If you upset someone, focus on their feelings, apologize, and try to console them. But if they keep doing this and it makes you uncomfortable, you gotta communicate that to them. Tell them that it stresses you out and that they need to give you a little grace. If they can't do that, then you're in your rights to create some distance.

@BlueVeins I'll do my best. Till then, distance seems like the best solution. Thank you.
