give me advice. even if it's anonymous. just comment.

put yourself in this general situation.
the basic lowdown: a decision has to be made. you have a few weeks left to make this decision. parties affected by this decision include you and someone you love. goal #1, which ranks as top priority: preserve happiness of loved one. goal #2: get "closure" for yourself, whatever that is.

option a: take

It's hard to give advice when the details are vague, but I'm willing to give a few words on my thoughts about what you wrote. Honesty and communication. Whatever the problem is, talk about it. Don't just leave it to chance, or maybe. If it's something/someone that important, bring it out into the open.
You can't always come up with a solution that leaves everyone happy, but you can try to find the solution that causes as little harm or pain as possible.
I know that probably none of this helped. I just can't resist trying whenever I get a chance to try and help out.
Good luck with this situation!

Laura :)

it'll take some serious guts for me to enter into the frightening territory of communication. i have no qualms with speaking honestly, it's just the 'speaking' part at all i seem to have trouble with o_O;
thanks for the comment and for wishing me good luck. :)

option a.
be assertive. break out of your normal habits. build character.

[pop_miasma]

thank you for replying. <3

If the person knows that you're leaving, then option B sounds good. Though you may not know what could have happened for sure, what could come out of it that would affect your life in a positive way? Yes, you might get closure but what would you lose in the process of that? Though it may feel good and right to take action in that one moment, it may not be for the overall best. Maybe this will help some. This person, have that brought you more joy than sadness throughout your time knowing them? Either answer comes from you and I can only say good luck. I love you and support you either way.

you've been a good sister to me, and i love you for that. i don't know if i ever thanked you for coming in my room and talking to me when i was upset last week. so...thank you.

tomorrow i will tell you what happens with dillon's erectile dysfunction! oh boy.

[unknwnunderwear]

Talk to Zach. Duuuh.

[pop_miasma]

hahahah. i guess that means option a, which translates into: talk to everyone before i leave, get assertive about my living situation, prep to go get a job outside of work study, go accept the commission from my grandfather....so on, so forth....
yeah, i got my housing info, & they put me in a double room. so guess who's apartment hunting when she's in baltimore?
i got my ap scores too, did you get yours yet

[unknwnunderwear]

A double. In a dorm? Never :P Well, have fun looking for an apartment, but remember how much further out you'll be!

Yeah I got mine ^.^ I got exactly what I thought I would.

[pop_miasma]

i'm trying to be optimistic (a rather foreign state for me) and think that any additional walking will help me lose weight, hehe

[somuchope]

irregardless of the specifics, purposeful and fulfilling lives are nearly impossible to lead without taking action on the things you care about. You do whatever you can to reach for the brightest strand of happiness regardless of its strength or likelihood.

and hey, if things should turn out for the worst, at least you know that you can leave it behind you by starting over when you go to college

this is like being in a gameshow where you get to see what prize is behind the mystery door, but unlike one, in that if you don't like what's behind it, you can still say fuck it, and take the exotic vacation to college. Despite the immediate pain of possible rejection, there is ultimately no way to lose yes?

oh baby

[pop_miasma]

when i slept after i had posted this, i had a dream that you decided to make some complex indie film out of your response to it. haha

but yeah...i'm just way fucking afraid that if i get emotionally bitchslapped it'll cripple my attempt to start a new life. i really don't want to feel like i've left a mess behind at home.
it's like...if i open up the mystery door, and some crazy possessed creature of death comes out, i won't just be able to say fuck it and go because it'll maim me o_O;

your random 'oh babys' make you sound like a pimp. a pimp with one of those damn hats. fedora? is that how you spell it? and for some reason when the words "trevor" and "pimp" combine in my head, the word "penguin" immediately follows. oh my

[somuchope]

oh yes, i hope to indulge myself in all forms of art throughout my lifetime

[unknwnunderwear]

Whether or not she would stay here isn't really a question. He wouldn't because he is more than likely going off to Japan. And it is love of a different sort because...let's just say it couldn't be the kind of love you're thinking of.
