How is she acting now? Is she avoiding you? Or pissed off or something?

Just like...nothing happened. And I tried to bring it up, earlier today...and she just kind of brushed it off. She told me she's 'not trying to talk about that, right now'.
I even apologized, for being honest.
Can you imagine? You people know me fairly well...and I was bent against my own morals, to apologize for being honest. She told me 'saying sorry doesn't really change things, does it?'
I feel like she's being unneccessarily offstandish.

She might just be... overwhelmingly happy or something. *shrug*

haha. Yea. Because when I'm happy, that's certainly how I act.

Don't you have a girlfriend? o_O

Yes, I do. And that's why I've kept this topic to myself, for so very long.
I figured telling her would do nothing but hurt everyone. It would make her unhappy with me, piss my girlfriend off, and I'd risk losing two very important people in my life.

But she put me on the spot. She was starting to get really upset and crying-like, when I told her I wasn't going to tell her. And it wouldn't have been let go, until I answered her question.

I swear...the more I think about it...the more I begin to feel like her doing that was some kind of strange, pointless set-up to entrap me into something.

I don't know. Much to my dismay, I believe I may care about her as something much more than a friend.
But I'm also a very smart, very careful, very guarded individual. I know how things work. I foresaw this, goddamnit.
That's why I kept it to myself. Thoughts that amount to nothing are not worth speaking.
But what am I to do, when given an ultimatum of having to choose which brand of unhappiness to thrust upon her? She'd feel I didn't trust her if I didn't tell her. But telling her still pushed her away from me.
That leaves me thinking lying to her face would have been a better solution.

Because if you actually just said to her (or intended to, while you were hallucinating God knows what, youn sick fuck) that you really cared for her a lot, but as a friend, and and she misunderstood, then it's all fine and dandy.
But if you didn't...
EMOH- LA- LA.

*Shrugs*
She asked. She insisted. I warned her, multiple times. I told her it wasn't an issue that should be brought up between the two of us. I almost feel that, by her actions, she knew exactly what I was going to say. But, if that's true...that means her intentions were nothing but malevolent....which makes me question my long friendship with her.

I was right, in thinking what I did. But in being right, in wanting to guard myself...I still ened up being wrong.

I might just slowly back away from the situation, and not talk about it with her anymore. That might be the best bet.

Meh, you should just tell her exactly what her malfunction is. Don't even bring up emotions. Say something like "I'm not going to talk about how I feel about you, but the way you've handled this situation"... etc. I don't understand how someone can do that to another person. Especially, someone they claim are friends.

You know, the motto "People are stupid" doesn't apply exclusively to political affairs.

So what you're saying is that this girl you thought was your friend is actually a fucked up bitch.

Aren't you glad you found out before becoming romantically involved? Or worse, not finding out until she has your kids?

Thank your lucky stars you got off this light. Bitches like that ruin lives.

Now give me your address. I'm gonna pick up some of that acid that makes that fucked up bitch seem like the kind of person who would want as a friend or even a girlfriend.

hahaha. I find it hard to believe that the emotional response can be that different, between the sexs.
When I say 'she started crying'...it wasn't like 'Oh, Randall...what you just said makes me so Christ-almighty happy...I just can't hold back my tears'. It wasn't that kind of crying.

That's certainly a high possibility, for this scenario...judging by how everything played out.

Actually...when you put it like that...maybe last night was a very positive thing.

HAHA. Just wander around Virginia. The whole state is flooded with LSD, right now. Though, I'm sure it won't last for long.

Damn flag this palce seems to have turned into your own personal dating therapy center. O_O

I'd agree with Grace though. I went through some similar shit (we were both stone cold sober though which made things way more uncomfortable) and once I confronted her she chilled out a little. It'll still probably take a while for things to go back to normal.

At 6/26/05 11:28 PM, totalwar wrote: Damn flag this palce seems to have turned into your own personal dating therapy center. O_O

There's no dating anything, anywhere.
Again, I'm not trying to fuck this girl, or go out with her.
In all honesty...she's too good of a friend for me to date (even if I didn't have a girlfriend). If that makes any sense...

And I'll let it go, since people seemed to be bothered by it. I didn't mean to drama-up the lounge.

Who said we're bothered by it? Personally, I think it's nice that you're willing to share this with us, especially seeing as how you usually come off as an emotionless assbag.
(just kidding. :P)

Heh, this thread puts the Vault Network size record to shame ;).

I don't know. Whenever I get into my personal life, on here, I just end up feeling like a whiner. I can't tell things like I feel them, sometimes.

lol No, in a way, you're right. Like I said..I don't usually know how to go about bringing up my personal life, past idle conversation, like 'Hell yes, I got a bag of pot/ten-strip of lsd today!"

Very entertaining actually. I dont think I would talk like this to people I have never really met, even if I ever had drama like that. And hey, if it helps ya, whos gonna complain about that?

And Funks right. Ya found her true colors.

Hey it makes for good drama if nothing else ;-)

To be honest, I know the situation very well and it really does suck. I'm probably in the same situation with one of my good friends. The difference being that we did fool around and I we havn't had the confrontation yet. But anyway, a story for another day. From what I can figure (hopefully I'm not pulling a captain obvious here), it sounds like she had a suspicion that you liked her and was hoping it wasn't true. Since you seemed to of confirmed her suspicions, she feels that your friendship is tainted. For the most part, she is worried that this is ultimately going to change things between you two and probably doesn't want that to happen. The best thing to do is to reassure her that you will still be friends, that this doesn't change anything and then just forget about the whole thing for a while. With any luck it will blow over in a week or two and you guys can get back to life as normal.

I don't exactly see how being grossly underweight to the point of being able to count your ribs and vertebrae is considered being "healthy." I just don't get it.

Look at the evolution of the female sex icon. Marilyn Monroe to now people like Lydsay Lohan, PAris Hilton etc who look like a strong breaze will break them in half.

I used to like Lyndsay Lohand before she started all this crap she's done to herself... now she's about as appealing as old bubblegum stuck to your shoe.

The fact that 17 year olds are getting boobs jobs and skin damage (in the form of tans) people consider to look healthy and be healthier than a normal skin pigment. What have we become as a society?

edn rant

You should see it in my town. Women here like to take the dark tan and bleach blonde look to extremes. Even the older 40 and 50 something women with sagging boobs.... *full body dry heave*

I thought it kind of sounded odd for ICP...

Sorry for nit-picking, but if there's one thing I hate, it's people believing whatever info makes it's way into pirated MP3 tags. On a completely related tangent, The Gin & Juice remake (the country music thingie) wasn't performed by Phish, but a band called The Gourds.

I can relate to that. My brother found a leak of "Die Dead Enough" by Megadeth long before The System Has Failed was released. He didn't believe it to be them however, because the band name was something different. It was them though...

*reads through the rest of _FLAGG's explanation*

It may sound a bit naïve on my part, but I'd try to have a sit down, face to face conversation with her about why she's responding to your comments the way she is. You were open and honest with her, time for her to return the favor. But I get the feeling it's going to go like what jmaster said; she had the same feelings for you, and doesn't know how to handle having her suspicions confirmed.

Should I read through the last two weeks posts to get caught up, or just continue as usual?

Pretty much the same old, same old other-wise.

I was waiting for this. I say the new comic about an hour ago and immediately thought "Shit Proteas is gonna have a joygasm in the lounge isn't he?"

I dont think many people consider that healthy, although most probally would think Paris is healthy, but she too is probally undereweight.

Is it just me or are we having a higher than usually n00b count in here the last day or two?

You've never met Dark Archon, have you? If you had, you'd know why that statement is hilarious.

He's also the guy in grey in my new "stfu" pic.

_Flagg, your situation sounds similiar to something I experienced a couple of years ago. From what I've read I gathered that you obviously told her that you have feelings that are more than just friendly.

Well I knew a girl for a long time, who became my best-girl-friend I had. At this point in my life I only hung out with girls... In the end it was very, very horrible experience, but I'm glad I went through this, because I learned a lot about the female psyche. Now I have very few female friends. Hanging out with girls, like I used to, sort of turned me a little sexist. Not that I see a woman and instantly hate her, but I judge a lot harder than I ever used to. And me getting these views has nothing to do with a girl "wanting nothing to do with me", incase anybody thinks that may be the reason I have my thoughts. Anyways...

So one day I told this girl how I felt, but she wasn't completely sure if she liked me the same, but she WAS sure that she didn't want to risk the friendship... So we both let it go. After a while I started dating her friend, which is someone else I hung out with a lot since I always hung out with her. She hated it immediately. Within days she told me she had feelings for me, and she couldn't believe I had done this. Not only that, but she straight up said "Now I'll never date you because you dated Stephanie."

I broke up with Stephanie in like a week, not because of the other girl, just because it wasn't working for me. Our friendships started to slowly fall apart, and now these two girls hate each other. That's basically it all summed up. I could go into a million small details, the drama that insued, and the nonsense I had to withstand while being friends with women, but I'd rather not. I don't really speak to these girls anymore, except once in a blue moon.

The End.

We lost two of our chickens today. A moment of silence please.
