The next morning...

*sigh*

I probably shouldn't have referred to him as a drama queen; that's not entirely fair. He's scarred, he has more baggage than he knows what to do with and more anger than he knows what to do with, and more mood swings than I know what to do with

Oh, logically I know that to be true; emotionally, not so much.

Aww, here I thought you were referring to me as the Drama Queen because of my latest post. I feel less special now.

I'm sorry to hear that things didn't work out or that they're not working out right now. Try for the friendship - I'm quite happy that I was able to (eventually) settle into a friendship with Matt.

"The good times were utterly fantastic, but the bad times were pretty dreadful." This is pretty close to my feelings at the end of my relationships. If I think about the good times, I want him back. If I think about the bad, I want to smack him upside the head.

Rantings aside, you know that we're here for you, even if some of us are across the ocean. Looking forward to seeing you again

Thanks :)

Strangely, I don't really want him back, good times or not. Quite possibly because the last time I saw him, obviously, was decidedly not one of the good times. I know I'll miss being with him in the sense of a relationship, but mostly right now I'm wishing that we'd met under different circumstances (he and I with other people). We could have had the friendship without all the accompanying nonsense.

I look forward to seeing you again as well. It's a pity that we won't have a balcony to sit on and drink wine (though late December is a bit cold for that, isn't it?). Those were always my favourite times.

As time passes, with all things, hopefully the good memories will outlive the bad and you can build a friendship on them. Although given what he might have said to you/about you that might be hard.

You always focus on the good in people, you have the ability to see it on it's own no matter what is going on around it.

Sometimes I wonder if you see the good and the bad in someone as two different people and it takes you time before you allow those two perceptions to mix.

*HUGS*

Not a bad thing, neither is the idea of needing to save someone. But I've never seen you try to change someone either.

It will be hard, but I don't believe that it's impossible. Perhaps I'm being overly optimistic.

You may have a point about the way I view people, actually. Something I shall have to think about, I think.

*big hug*
