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

I've yet to see otherwise, myself. And strategies would be nice, i've got nothing that works

Do you have a creative outlet? Are you physically capable of things like hiking and/or cycling? Do you put yourself in positions where you're more likely to meet like-minded people?

Not particularly creative, capable but unable to do stuff like that due to parents, and finally, yeah, but so far all i've ran into is the same level of asshole every time

To the 15 year old son of a client who said to me "hey maid, grab me a Mountain Dew from the fridge", I'm not your fucking maid you spoiled little shit head, here's your drink.

To the client who whacked him in the back of the head with my dusting stick. I appreciate the sentiment I guess, but it's already hard enough for me to not judge you what with the Pearl's book on your night stand and the giant photo with the words "Train up a child in the way that he should go and when he is old he will not depart from it." Do not fucking use my cleaning tools as a weapon on your child. -_-

Why can't you people just leave when I'm cleaning like normal people do!? Ugh

I never wanted to hurt you. It was never my intention. Intimacy is not my forte. Pushing people away...I'm good at that. My skills suck. Blah

I wish I could just choose not to be this person. Awkward hugs are still the best kind of hugs.

I think you're doing a pretty good job, mi amor ?

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

I didn't see you. But I see you now. You're not invisible. I'm sorry I was so blind.

Happens to be the name of one of my favorite albums ever. I first heard it thanks to my bestest kitten:

Both the lyrics and the music is very emotional and deep and meaningful, the singer's singing voice is epicly awesomesauce, it helps you cry when you need a good cry to feel better and every single fucking song on the album is masterpiece. Well, that's what I think anyway

Anyway, don't want to derail your thread Ivy Just wanted to say that

I accept and appreciate both of you guys, and all my truly close friends, for exactly who you are, I know that wonderful people never mean to hurt others but we all hurt others sometimes, however good our intentions, myself included. Life is complicated, we all have our problems, and the important thing is you do whatever you need to do for the sake of your health, it's important, and all true friends will ultimately accept and value that, even if it's hard to do so initially when they're hurting and they struggle a bit first. I'll be here for you guys when I can be if you need me.

Can I just say, and I'm just being honest, I've finally realized the source of my problem.

Break the Cycle is one of my all time favorites!
