Been sleeping badly lately.

And falling asleep in class.

I'm going to have to talk to someone soon.

The question is - do I tell the people I tell everything...or do I tell someone I have hope might possibly believe me?

You need an ear?

[toconquerdeath]

Man, you need to clean your own house before you go offering help to other people.

[flying_stag]

You're part of my house. And even if I can't offer any decent advice as I am apparently a fuck up of the first order, I can sit there and listen, as long as you let me keep a quill to doodle with.

[toconquerdeath]

I wish you wouldn't say things like that. It makes it hard to be pissed at you.

[wonwon_weasley]

I'm always free if you need to talk.

[toconquerdeath]

I know that. Don't feel dissed, or anything. This one is just...well, it sounds really crazy. So I'm dragging my feet a bit. Because I don't like sounding crazy.

[wonwon_weasley]

It might not sound as crazy as you think it does. You don't have to talk to me if you don't want to, I was just pointing out that if you want to I'm here. Or, I'm also fairly good at the art of distraction.

[toconquerdeath]

Some distraction would be great. Would you like to kick my butt at chess or has that gotten boring for you?

[flaming_lion]

I would say it depends on how negatively you suspect the people you tell everything to would react and how comfortable you are with the person you hope will believe you.

I know we don't really know each other outside these journals, but I'm generally the 'crazy' one around. I don't judge, and I don't mind being a friendly shoulder to lean on. No pressure, I just know that sometimes it's easier to talk to people when you don't know them terribly well, nor they you.

[shabby_marauder]

You tell them as much as you are comfortable with telling them. Speaking as someone who has had my own fair share of outrageous things to keep to myself, I know that that is the hardest part. Tell them the truth, and tell them as much as you can. Don't feel obligated to make it so they believe you, because you are putting your faith and trust in these people because they should believe you.

[toconquerdeath]

But what if they shouldn't believe me? I mean... What if I wouldn't believe me? Is it fair to expect them to?

[shabby_marauder]

If it is enough to worry you like this, then it should be something to be concerned over. You can't think about how believable it is. Treat it as a very real threat. If it isn't, then you can laugh about it later. But it's better to be safe than sorry, right?

[toconquerdeath]

You are right. But...
