Ranty, beware.

Sat down and had a serious conversation with my amazing friend Reid the other day. She's my confidant, probably best friend right now, and possible my love. I tell her almost everything. And you know why? Because I think she's the only one listening.

I look at all my contacts, count off all my friends, search through my phone and you know what I ( Read more... )

I'm a bit on drugs and a bit exhausted as I just got home, but I do hope this isn't a huge reference to my own behavior. I know I rarely take interest in your fandoms but that isn't to say I haven't at times tried. For WoW, I did play, even got my character up to 30 or something before my money had to go elsewhere. I DID really plan on playing Drakengard. I again point at the stack of games I have on queue right now (it's upwards of ten). And I do try to listen to your life issues and did talk to you when you were upset about you Grandfather and about some things. And my behavior about you and Reid has been a reaction of happiness so I hope that has nothing to do with me.

Whatever the case, I'm starting to fear that you might only being equating me with negative or bitter opinions.

"I look at my friends and what do they do? 90% of them sit around and masturbate to fictional characters. ...To put it bluntly." was a bit harsh on all of us, and pretty supercilious.

Well, again let me point out that this may not be completely about you. I'm speaking in generalities about all of my friends. This isn't a rant about one specific person. And I'll tell you right off the bat that EVERYTHING in this does not ring true for you ( ... )

And please please stop saying you were planning on getting to my fandoms at some point. As I said, stop telling me all those sweet lies to make me feel better. I'm not an idiot. When a game sits at your house for 5 months and you haven't even looked at it, chances are you never will. And saying something like you were 'just about to get to it' puts the blame onto me for taking the game back after that long of time.

First of all... Don't accuse me of that. Matt got me Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles EIGHT MONTHS AGO and I haven't touched it. I nagged, and whibbled, and clung to him wanting it for Christmas. The same goes for the Hitman Trilogy, which I have wanted to play forever, and has been sitting there. But I do not have all that much free time and I am not -lying-.

Maybe I just think higher of my friends than they do of me. Perhaps I'm trying to have relationships that are closer than most people want? I honestly have trouble believing that at this point. You have accused me of being shallow, and you have insinuated that ( ... )

Well, I had a long response to this but thanks to my fail mouse buttons it went to the last page I was on before the reply and when I went back it was gone. So I'll just make it quick, because the last one sapped my energy ( ... )

Thank you. Don't feel awful. This is a rant about a lot of my friends, not just the people you guys know. I do have other friends. ;P ( ... )
