my new philosophy

[faerie_tears]

Everyone is going to hurt you. Your best friend, who you can share everything with, may tell you that you can trust them. You will believe them, and love them because of that blind trust. I thought at first... I must prevent this. I must stop trusting, and stop loving...It's the only way to stay safe. It's the only way to avoid this gut wrenching

I concur with everything you wrote here megera.
Its definitely all worth it, and I don't think that just applies to teenage relationships.
Keep your head up and your eyes on the prize, toots. You're gonna be one of the few to make it out okay, I know it.
*I apologize for calling you "toots"

[faerie_tears]

yea, that was totally inappropriate. i am no "toots" nor "babe" nor any other kind of "piece of ass" phrase.

why does everyone say that i'm going to make it? why? i've been through a whole lot. what makes people think that the world is going to stop and everything will change for me?

sorry. i'm in such a rambling mood tonight.

[sidewalkwarrior]

you should accept complements better, meg.

[faerie_tears]

haha. yea.

[crosstheeyes]

You couldn't of said it any better meg. I am glad to see that you have been sort of optimistic about this whole thing. Saturday night will be the best night of your life, I promise.

"The only joy you will ever feel is loving another person."

I don't think that's true at all. There are so many things in life other than being in love that bring joy.

hahah for once i agree with mike. maybe the world is ending?

but yeah, that didn't stand out when i read that whole thing, but now that mike's pointed it out, he's got a point. i know people who never marry, never bother themselves with another person, and they're as happy as can be.

[faerie_tears]

disregard my statement. i didn't mean it like that..

rather..i believe love is one of the most fulfilling feelings.

there are many other things, art, beauty, etc. i don't know. i'm too romantic for my own good.

i'll get over it, lol =)

Sorry you're hurting right now. I've been trying very hard lately to concentrate of all these thoughts. Over the past few months, some family relationships of mine have been seriously damaged, my circle lost a good friend over a really screwed up situation, and I've even dealt with loads of internet drama. Ready for a break. I have no problem with distraction, but I tell myself I've earned it because my mind doesn't give me a break from the stress, otherwise. I need to learn to compartmentalize things more effectively. I hope you're feeling better.

[faerie_tears]

i'm sorry you're going through so much as well. i guess it makes sense to allow your mind to wander, perhaps we'd go crazy if all we did was deal with our problems. i hope things get better for you soon.

life is full of stupid shit, but something good comes along for everyone every once in a while.
