What is it with me, poetry, and late night updates? The world may never know............

[mrboboud1]

So I've been bothered by stuff recently. Mostly the fact that I seem to be a ghost in most people's lives. I'm there, I do stuff for them, but when it comes time to be hung out with or called, or even IMed, I'm not on the list. People down here do these long ass end of the year entries about everything they're going to miss, and then they

"What is it with me, poetry, and late night updates?" = i smell a threesome

paul, i've felt exactly like this for so long. i was always in the background. even in my group of friends, i was the one that people turned to last. i was NEVER anything more than a friend ... never. i'm good at making friends, but apparently not good at being friends. i've got handfuls of people i talk to, but not many that i can really call friends. and the same with girls ... i'm just a friend, and nothing more. i get the "you're such a sweet guy" comments, but sometimes i feel like they're talking to my poetry and not actually me

and i forgot...

the other day, it was the birthday of a girl that i've liked for 3 years now. and even though she's rejected me, i still got her a present. i drew a picture for her, and she was amazed that i'd take the time to do it. it really only took me a half hour to draw it, but she doesn't look at that. she looks at the effort i put into it, and that's it's something personal (and not just bought).

now, i don't know if you're any good at drawing, but maybe do something like that? buy a picture frame, and make a collage of photos of you and her. or write her a poem and put it in the middle, with the photos around it. you don't need money to get presents - just make it something that's from you.

Yep

I totally agree....maybe I'm not the most typical girl, but I do know that anything with effort behind it will be great. It's definitely the thought, not the money, the counts.... :)

Hey Paul

You've Got A Friend In Me (Part I)

[bigwatchdog42]

I know exactly what you mean by feeling like you are a ghost in people's lives. They know me, I may even have occasional interaction with them, but when free time comes around I never get a phone call from anyone. I think Erin is one of the only ones that has called me recently. There may not be anyone from UD that has you on their "will miss" list, but know that you've got somebody at Wright State that does miss your company
