The first girl I ever kissed, the girl I went to freshman orientation in high school with in our matching collars and black nail polish, band t-shirts and too much makeup, is married to some random shaved head air-force dude.

big hugs to you ted_e_lthrgirl February 27 2009, 19:12:49 UTC

i wish i could say all of the flowery shit to pacify etc. but the reality is, this is all there is, and it is only what you make of it. The kid who made due with the tupperware lids on the kitchen floor and was content, well how about the kid with the $450 lego set, and he was not content.

awww, thank you for the warm squishy hugs. I'm so glad that our paths have crossed...I'm working on devising a new plan that will hopefully bring me closer to having time to work on art, and things I really want to do...so who knows, I guess what 2009 has taught me so far is to expect the unexpected, and like you said, to appreciate the times that we do get to have with people we love.
Thank you.

I spy on old friends, foes, and ex-lovers on myspace, too! And I know what you mean about feeling some sort of envy for someone you used to know and seeing them on myspace.

The internet is the devil! lol j.k

Seriously. I do know how you feel, but remember the frass is not always greener on the otherside. What you're seeing on her profile is what she wants others to see. You're not truly seeing her real life. Just a thought.
