Sorry about that, Asalis. Take care and hope the funeral is more of a celebration of how she lived, than a sad occassion. _________________ Hey, Sony... IT'S PAYBACK TIME!

Asalis, I was a poll bearer for my grandmother when she passed away. I didn't cry either, even though I was close to her.
It's okay to cry, and it's okay not to cry when a loved one passes on. Everyone experiences grief in their own way. Don't let others tell you that you're insensitive or apathetic because you don't grieve the same way they do.
I hope things go well for you on Wednesday, Asalis. _________________ Styx: "Oh sure like flaming a dragon going to do massive damage, brave challenge there Teric." |

I am concerned with our friend Midi. I e-mailed him, letting him know he would be missed, and since I had dealt with a lot of the same problems, that if he needed the help he copuld talk to me. He told me to go Yiff myself. I am not mad at him, But this cannot be good. If he doesn't find help, he could get hurt, or worse. I wish i could help him... But I suppose he wishes to be left alone. My prayers are with him. _________________ A little Nonsense now and then, is Relished by the Wisest men. |

Sorry there have been no posts before now. But, to bring our friends up to date:
I just got home from the hospital, I had to go in to have this kidney stone that has been bothering me removed. I tried to tough it out at work yesterday, but about noon I lost it. My father came out to the job-site and took me to the hospital where my very worried fox was already waiting for me. They made the decision to admit me, and get it blasted out (with a laser no less) the following day, and so here I am today. I'm still a bit sore, and it still hurts to use the restroom, but other then that, I'm fine
Again, sorry for the lack of posts here, Journye's laptop blew its power supply before this all happened, and when she came home to change, and to post here, my desktop had crashed, and she didn't know how to boot it. So, sorry ya'll are just now hearing about this. Just thought ya'll were owed an explanation as to our absence, and any future loopyness from me (good drugs man).

WOA, sorry to hear that, Leo! I'm really glad that you've finally gotten rid of that blasted kidney stone (ugh).
Take it easy, my friend--rest up and let Journye take good care of you until you feel better. Hope your recovery is quick! _________________ Styx: "Oh sure like flaming a dragon going to do massive damage, brave challenge there Teric." |

Mine is hardly considered serious but it's something stressful for me so eh.... This coming Jan i'm going back to college after a 3 year vanishing act. I'll be rooming with friends, close friends. I'm using that's left from my tuition to pay for the rent and utilities. Plus i'll be working a full time job to pay for the car, food, insurance and whatever else is needed. I'm worried to mess this up. I don't want to pull my friends down cause I couldn't pull through you know? It honestly scares me at the knowledge I could potentially hurt or pull my friends down cause i couldn't pull my end.... eh... but I also know if I don't take this chance to go back i'll be stuck in no-where's ville for a while _________________ Murph, this is my signature, read it with awe and admiration while you wish you had one like this. |

Taigas, just don't overdo it, and try and find a comfortable schedule for both your job and school. It will be hard, but well worth the effort. I myself would kill for the chance to go back to school right now. _________________ Hey, Sony... IT'S PAYBACK TIME!

My fellow furiends, I need your advice, please lend me your ears.
The situation at hand involves a friend of a long time, and probably a broken and unsalvageable friendship... and my own stubborness.
To make the long story short, this friendship has been falling apart through the years, despite my many attempts to fix it. Something I ABSOLUTELY hate, is being ignored (as in completely not listening), and our exchanges usually went like this:
Me: "Hey, can we talk? I have something important to ask you."
Friend: "Oh sure, we'll talk later."
This has been going on for months and months, close to a year. I know I can't force a person to like me, but I expect someone to have the b***s to back up their word with. All of this... rejection, so to speak, has got me hurting: I thought it was my fault, gave him time, try many approaches. This friend was important to me, very important.
When a friendship gets to the point that one has to ask for an appointment (not really, but you get the idea) to even talk, you know that something is wrong and broken.
So finally, I sent him a message:
"You know, it's obvious that we can't be friends. I have to tell you I'm grateful and regretful we met. I will not bother you anymore, won't message or call you ever again. Hope your life can be a happy one, and that your others friends make you happy as well. Farewell, friend."
Him: "Erf. *sighs*"
That's it. Honestly, a "F*** you" would have been a better response. This kind of person has caused me to become very wary of people and never expect anything from anyone anymore. (Think Squall of FF8)
Problem is, dogs are very loyal. I am having second thoughts and feel like calling him. It was a very long night last night, and if not because I kept myself busy I would have written a long email and try to undo what I did.
A part of me wants to stick to my guns because I know he won't change even if his life depended on it, and another part wants to give it another try because there might be a slight chance (yeah right) that the friendship may be restored.
(Yeah, I want to give him a serious beating for being such a crapwad, and completely unworthy of whatever makes him a man.)
Hope I hadn't been too vague. Any suggestions? Your responses are appreciated.
Thank you in advance. _________________ Hey, Sony... IT'S PAYBACK TIME!

Admitidly this is a very out of left field opinoin. but maybe this other person has some kind clinical depression. Or it could just be a case of two people growing in different directions, happened to me a few times it sucks but you just have to face it and move on. _________________ "Political Correctness is tyranny with manners."

Well, I would probably have approached the confrontation in a different manner, but that's in the past now.
If he has a proven track record of indifference and apathy, it seems that the same track record will likely continue. If you were to go back and try to repair the burned bridge so soon, I can almost guarantee that you will not get the response that you hope for.
Perhaps, given time, the friendship can be mended. _________________ Styx: "Oh sure like flaming a dragon going to do massive damage, brave challenge there Teric." |

Personally, I'd send him a short message saying something along the lines of I'm not really certain what you response was intended to mean. I feel as though we have been drifting apart for a while now, maybe thats true, maybe your just dealing with somethings but i think for now I'm going to give you your space but know that if you need anything you are plenty welcome to contact me.
Then keep his contact info but don't contact him unless he comes to you. Let a few months pass then if you've not heard anything but still miss him, then send him a message of, hey, it's been awile since we last spoke. I was thinking of you and wondering how you're doing. Hope your well...
Then if he's just not interested in being friends anymore you know you tried but you've just grown apart. If he's dealing with some hard stuff then he knows your available to help if possible but your giving him space and not being an extra hastle to deal with. Either way it's intirely possibly to be friendly later after some cool down time, maybe not as close as you once were but still keeping in touch. _________________ http://www.bukisa.com/people/AmberBarnes check it out!

Although I never bother others with my problems, I feel that this is one problem that can be shared...
Last night, I was robbed.
A bunch of teenagers stopped me and beat me up, and stole my laptop, my iPod, my cell phone and my silver necklace. I never blacked out, and I kept standing all the time, but one of them still managed to kick me in my face and break my nose. It hurts, kinda.
Anyways, I called the cops when I got home, and I'm meeting up with them later today. Hopefully those thiefing lil' bastards gets caught or something, and hopefully my insurance will get me some new stuffs... _________________ "Carla, make the bad man stop!

*huggles*
And feel free to share more. Heck, it may sound a bit stoic at this moment, but let's be glad you didn't end up with a nice cut or bullet wound. And get your nose checked by a doctor ASAP in case it needs some patching.
And may they pay dearly for their crime. Stupid kids. _________________ Hey, Sony... IT'S PAYBACK TIME!

Many hugs and prayers, LW. I hope you feel better. Thanks for having the courage to share with us on IRC so soon after it happened. _________________ Styx: "Oh sure like flaming a dragon going to do massive damage, brave challenge there Teric." |
