2005: Yet Another Retrospective

[lowlymarine]

Now, you see, you've read so many of these either lauding what a great year it was, or debating the good and bad points, etcetera. So I'm going to go, month by month, of why 2005 was, bar none, the shittiest year of my life

Okay, so I'm going to do the appropriate thing and say for the freaking millionth time that NEITHER DID I CHEAT ON ROSS, NOR DID ARTHUR CONTRIBUTE but unfortunately your best friend has an ego that's larger than life and apparently making me sound like a bitch is the only way that he can justify the fact that not the whole time, but only the last few months, mind you, that I was unhappy with our relationship. Fortunately, everyone else has realized this fact and that is why he's lost such "great" friends such as Ryan Barr who came back and apologized to Arthur and me for the way he acted because he realized, HEY! YOU TWO DIDN'T DO ANYTHING WRONG! Guess what, I was fighting with Ross, Arthur was a shoulder to cry on, Ross got super effing jealous and broke up with me. Arthur and I didn't even get into a "casual" dating situation for a couple weeks. We didn't start "officially" dating until A FREAKING MONTH LATER. I never and I repeat NEVER cheated on Ross. I'm sorry, I believe that was HIS job in the relationship? Oh yeah?

Ok, I'm sorry. I don't personally have anything against you or Arthur. But if you had really wanted to correct what Ross has told me, my AIM handle (in addition to being the same as my LJ username) is in my profile, and I am on with great frequency. Heck, I'll be on later tonight, probably. So I'd actually greatly appreciate it if you would try to give your half of the story - there's nothing worse than being uninformed.

Now, as to why I believe Ross:
1) He's always, to my knowledge, been very honest with me.
2) I have been cheated on, screwed over, and lied to far too many times by girls in the past year or so. So what do I have to make me believe you over Ross?

I believe Destiny because I went with her to Drum Major camp where this supposedly all started and I can testify that nothing happened while we were there. Sorry it's a late posting, but I thought I'd defend my Destiny. By the way Ross is a liar. I went out with him and the very first day we officially got into a relationship he went to the movies with another girl who I thought was my friend and made out with her. So HE'S the cheater! I can testify to that firsthand. And while he did see Destiny, I'm sorry to say, he hit on every female infront of him, which I found very disrespectful and did the same to me. Ross just has to learn to accept the fact that it's over and he broke up with her and then he still complains... who knows?!!!
Love you Philip and Destiny! MUAH!

Oh, I know. I talked to Destiny about it and...yeah. So I know, lol.

I love you too. ;)

Two things:

First of all, you were (and are) far too young for me. In terms of life experience and maturity, there's a gap there. Even if I had liked you romantically, it never would have worked out.

Second, possibly one of your problems is that you pursue too many girls. Dude, seriously, chill the fuck out. Maybe if you stopped treating women like a prize to be won, like we're on a pedestal, like a status symbol, you might actually get someone to fall in love with you. Of course, it really doesn't sound like you fell in love with any of us; from the outside, this reads as a completely shallow list of people you were infatuated with, and this image isn't helped by the fact that you move from girl to girl to girl as if we're all interchangeable to you.

I don't mean to add to the shitpile that was this year for you, but you might want to think about what I've said.
