Alright. Get a load of this:
I have become a focal point of conversation at parties amongst people I don't know, over issues I could care less about. Also people that hate me ad nauseam have begun reading my journal/myspace blog and making it a topic of discussion at their socials.
How did I pull this off? My last entry. I don't want to explain

Yes. Recently I realized that one of my best friends was actually the main person that was sucking so much energy out of me he was driving me into depression. I was spending so much time fixing his problems that I wasn't taking any time to sort out my own. I haven't spoken to him in a couple weeks and I feel great. But I do care about him, and I don't want to hurt him by telling him he needs to stop being a whiny bitch. And I've told this to all our mutual friends, but not him yet. And it IS wrecking our friendship since I just haven't spoken to him.
Bah.

Surprise surprise though, talking to the source is more helpful than gossiping! Why then do people seem to prefer the latter?

(Having few friends implies loserdom in modern day America, and I know several people who have zillions of friends, but probably wouldn't have any if they were honest -- opinion based off of how much gossip I hear from them --)

Sorry, but I don't want to be the one who pushes him over the edge.

Actually, a lot of times, I DREAM about having the opportunity to let my honest opinions rule my mouth (you know who I'm talking about x_x).
And saying bad things about people is somewhat shitty, but we're all human, and it's proven than talking about things relieves the intensity of the feeling... and everyone needs to let off steam sometime. It's the whole frequency part that gets tricky, methinks. If you're always talking smack about someone but you call him your best friend, that's a teensy little problem ( ... )

Curse my friends and friends of friends who make mountains out of molehills.

It seems like people don't meet up to most people's standards. Some people keep it to themselves, and get angrier and angrier. Some people tell the truth, and in doing so hurt whomever they tell. Wiser people whisper so it isn't heard by anyone who will be hurt by it, and then pretend that nobody is whispering about them. Really wise people lie to themselves completely, willfully loving everyone and everthing to keep from hating everyone and everything.
I think the difference between the first and the last is the difference between supervillains and superheroes.
