Cause I feel like it.

Despite my reputation for embracing confrontation, I am sometimes a wimp.

1. I’m mad at you. I’m not mad at you because your statement was completely wrong, because it isn’t completely wrong. I’m mad because it feels manifestly unfair of you to throw that rock while sitting in a glass house when I don’t want to hurt *your* feelings.
2. Thank you for thanking me. It was really nice to be validated.
3. I want to call and I don’t know how to. I don’t know how to rebuild this bridge. I suck. I’m sorry.
4. Maybe it’s time to move on? Are you really being served by what is happening in your life?
5. I wish you would stop pretending you were my friend. That way I could let go of hope that you will be. You don’t act like my friend. Continuing to hope hurts a lot.
6. I find it odd that you pay so much attention to him still. What would you like to get out of your random public statements that are clearly directed at him?
7. I’m proud of you. You’ve worked so hard to fight these demons. It’s a big deal. You are wonderful.
8. Sometimes I get very frustrated with you. Don’t take it overly personally, I get very frustrated with the whole world. 🙂
9. I wish you would call more. I miss you and it bothers me that you don’t respond to me trying to contact you.
10. It’s been good to talk to you. It’s sad that it has taken so long and that I am leaving so soon.

        If #6 were about you then I would have to be wondering why you are directing attention at someone and if you are directing lots of specific attention at one person I have missed it. 🙂

          *laughs* No, I don’t think I’m related to #6 at all. I’m much more likely to beat the object of my affection over the head with a clue-by-four, not whine to the aether.

          Whining in general? THAT I can do.

      Who have I been ranting about, and one particular statement, for weeks. Naw, if that sort of sentiment was directed at you it would have been much more concisely “You suck.” 😉

      One nice thing about this list is that most of the statements are positive, and almost all of them leave room for forgiveness, acceptance and reconciliation. If you think one or more of these could be directed at you, then maybe you should take the leap?
