You’ve kicked me while I’m down, when I have been at my most vulnerable. You’ve forgotten that when you were at your lowest, I lifted you up until you could stand on your own. But every time you kick me, I get back up and continue along my path. You will only be a distant, forgiven memory. One day I hope you understand why I can forgive you, but I will never forget, and I will never care for you the way I once did. —Just Me

well put..going through the same thing!!
de-friending is fun
No it’s not fun at all.It feels miserable to loose a friend.
If I really like someone I try to understand why they do what they do.I try to better understand the reasons a friend behaves in a certain manner as they begin to push me away(whether they realize it or not) I don’t run screaming at the first sign of trouble.
People have ran screaming from me so I know all too well how it feels.I do realize at times that I push people away but at times I do and I don’t mean to.I can admit when I’m wrong.
You’re much too social for the pessimism you exhibit.
Being recluse lets you really seethe without others bothering you or getting in the way.
Maybe a 2013 resolution?
It’s also a little liberating not giving a flying fuck about anyone or their stupid ‘opinions’.
Well said OL. Keep stepping in the right direction!

Were you talking to me?
I never lied to anyone about being socially awkward.People chose not to believe me.
I do love being with people and at times (I’m told) I’m quite charming,with a wicked sense of humour.
….My childhood was so fucked up that I was never taught about boundaries and the importance of a healthy self-esteem to my social life,not to mention every aspect of my life.As a result (and other terrible things that happened to me)I’m pretty fucked up.”I em what I em and that’s all that I em”.
I never taught myself(I couldn’t find a shrink that would go for drinks with ) how not to be socially awkward because I always felt guilty when I tried to “better myself” in anyway. Teaching yourself how not to be socially awkward is difficult when you have no one to be social with.Sure I could join a club,or enroll in a school but, when your lacking social skills it can make meeting new people to be social with a Catch22.
Zed Just bill me Eheh
Ironically,I’m beginning to realize that sometimes lying can be Freeing.Well,being 100% honest all the time can be taxing.On the other hand,lying goes against my values.Being honest ain’t getten me anywhere in this fucking life.
Besides no one believes me when I do tell them the truth.
I don’t believe you.

Forgiveness is key. May sound trite but it’s very true. Forgive for you, not for them.
