How to lose
a Fred...
Alright,
I figured what the hell, today we'll discuss the methods that various people
have lost me as either a friend or a romantic intrest... wait... no one
actually lost me as a romantic intrest, since no one was ever intrested
in me that did something to lose me. I'm sure the same rules apply either
way...
Alright...
Where to begin?
First
of all, honesty. Honesty with me is like water to most other people. I
need it if I'm going to have any friendship with someone. If something
happens, and I ask about it, I want to know what it was. If I don't find
out what it was, there had better be a good reason for it, like being sworn
to secrecy. I can understand that, there are certain things I'm no allowed
to tell people. But there are certain stipulations that shouldn't apply,
ya know? I mean I would tell my former best friend Eric everything I knew
when he asked, and he asked some damned embarassing shit. I just always
felt that being honest was the best way to show someone you love them,
so I try to always be upfront with everyone, especially about how I feel.
Next,
we have the one that seems to happen most... dropping off the face of the
earth. That's the way a certain someone who I traveled 120 miles to visit
got rid of me, that's how Eric got rid of me, and that's how Maegen got
rid of me. It's probably the least painless for them, but most painful
for me. To know that someone just doesn't want to see me despite the fact
that I want to see them so much hurts a lot, and that's how I lost my first
best friend, the one who was my brother for 15 years. One day he just decided
I wasn't worth it anymore, and walked out of my life. I started getting
close to Maegen, and figured "Hey, here's someone I can really talk to
about all my shit" and she does the same thing. That's a real quick way
to lose me now. I mean if I don't hear from you in like a month, I'm going
to be concerned, so thanks for calling me at least one a month Kim. I love
ya for it.
Finally
there is the way Edith discovered recently. Just tell me that you want
nothing to do with me anymore, say it's over, I'll leave. I'll feel bad
about it, I'll be a little upset, but I'll accept it. Two people make a
relationship, so I can't expect you to suffer through me if you don't want
to. I'm sorry that Edith felt that our friendship wasn't worth it any more,
but I accept that, and I know that she's gonna have a good life, cause
she's damned smart, and I know she can do whatever she puts her mind to.
I
think those are the only ways I know of. If anymore come up I'll be sure
to add them later. G'night all.
