| 1. | collect your thoughts | ||
|
To collect one's thoughts means to take time for his/herself after a particularly disturbing event, and to get his/her mind back in order. Person1: Hey, what's up?
Person2: Becky and I just broke up last night. Person1: Oh that sucks, how've you been handling it? Person2: I dunno man, but I feel like complete shit. Person1: I'm sorry, how about I leave you alone and give you time to collect your thoughts? Person2: Good idea. I'll explain things later then. |
