I've had Phil Collins on repeat all day. What's wrong with me?

I'm still not sleeping well. I lay in bed at night and have conversations in my head with people I'll probably never discuss these things with ( Read more... )

I know you are one to want to love and be loved in return. It's very important. I think Cam may be right on this one. Give yourself some time, honey. A lot has happened recently. Let your heart and mind catch up.

I guess I'm always afraid that the best thing I've ever known is going to walk into my life and I'm going to miss it simply because I've told myself I need to be single.

I tried taking things slow, I thought I was getting somewhere - and then it was clear that wasn't true.

Honey, I think if the best thing walked into your life, you'd know it and you would respond in the right way. This isn't like a being single sentencing. I just don't want you to feel like there has to be someone. If that person comes along, fantastic!

I know. I do. I just, I feel four and like you're telling me I can't have candy before dinner and I just want to throw a tantrum. I don't know why really.

I'm mad at a lot of things right now. People, myself... but I feel guilty about that so I'm trying to deny it. I want to lose myself in other things and other people and pretend like nothing that happened matters and that none of it was a big deal. I guess right now I just don't want to let go of anything that might have been or almost was or could be someday. Even if they more than likely won't ever be anything more than what they've already been.

I'm not making sense.

Staying single is not as easy as it sounds. I say do what you feel is right.

When the moment comes I will probably do exactly that.

Phil Collins is great.

He is, but the same CD all day is a little nuts.

It reminds me of that betty boop song, "Loved by you".

drew_barrymore July 27 2003, 19:21:05 UTC

What's that? Just the entire entry?

Marilyn did it first,
I wanna be loved by you
Just you and nobody else but you
I wanna be loved by you alone
pooh pooh bee doo!

I wanna be kissed by you
Just you and nobody else but you
I wanna be kissed by you alone

Are you Truely Drew Barrymore? If so,why on EARTH have a journal on line. It seems to me that people would do everything in their power to keep their secret lives exactly that, secret. And for the record,why are you with people who you cant "be yourself" around. Life is to short to be pretensious(spelling?).If your comrades aren't accepting of your "true self" maybe you should re-think your company.
P.S. Why won't you let people be anonymous? I almost chose to not post this, but in the end, the thought of someone famous reading something I wrote, won out.(:

[no, this journal is part of a role play. It's a fictional account of Drew Barrymore's life. Some aspects are taken from real life and others are made up entirely. There are disclaimers on each entry and on the user info page it asks everyone to read and understand that this is not real.]
