Can I just say, and I'm just being honest...

Is that make up sex I smell?

You two need your own room.

Hmmm. I smell...deep friendship and mutual affection in those posts.
But no sex. 

Did you do a perm today, Joods? I think your sniffer's wonky!

The smoothing-over happened quite a while back, this was a simple expression of emotion today. Sometimes happiness grabs me and I do these wild things like post happy thoughts in the CIJS thread. Go figure!

I’m loving this reconciliation

I hope you both realize that I was joking. If not - I'm very sorry if it seemed out of line. That wasn't my intention. I was genuinely happy for both of you for what I was assuming - you getting back together. I am sorry if I made the wrong assumption and tried to make a light hearted gesture of my happiness for you both.

Ain't no thang, J.

No, Joods...I didn't think you were out of line all. I assumed it was all in good fun.

I thought you were someone else. But I guess then my disappointment is my fault. For having expectations. Hard to argue with that. But it did seem like we were very close, like this was something special, something that I had dreamed of for a while.

But I suppose I was wrong. And that’s ok. Not the first and not the last. I guess I misjudged you, or rather was too naive to see your flawed side. And the second things got hard, you abandoned me.

I do still love you. And if you wanna talk, I can talk. But I’ll be keeping my distance because I know the kind of person you are. I don’t want to be discarded again. That hurt. And I need to protect myself. My well-being is more important than this stupid drive of mine to fix everyone and be everybody’s therapist and just bleed my heart out even if they dont ask for it.

It’s for sure. I’m not getting close to you again. I’m not letting you in, I’m not getting invested. The only thing up for debate is whether I should tell you all this or not. The decision I think is best is that I will, but only if you prompt it somehow, mention the topic. It would be beneficial for you to receive this kind of feedback, to understand the consequences of your actions.

But why should I care what’s beneficial to you if all you did was give up on me when I got a little sad?

Farewell, fair weather friend. I guess you won’t be the first time I got what I was looking for. That’s good actually, because having learnt all of this I’m going to make that time better. I deserve better than you.

CIJS and I've undoubtedly said it before:

If by some miracle you were to say one positive, dare I say even nice, thing to me - just one - I will drop down dead on the spot. I will, straight.

I didn't write that rainbow poem in the great poetry thread. I thought it was funny at the time, but I feel bad about it. It was very immature of me to pass off a 1970s kids tv show theme tune as poetry I've written. I can't just Bungle my way through life pretending I'm a poet like what you are.
