Its like an alternate reality. I don't know why it happened. I don't know how to stop it. I don't know why he came. I was trying to escape.
Another question about another topic that is currently plaguing my thoughts. I have a friend who has been quite sad lately. This friend lives in Atlanta. This friend is confusing and wonderful and a thousand different things, but also sad. This friend said, "I realized recently that all of the people that I once had close to me don't care about me anymore."
If you understood the whole situation, your answer might differ. Tonight was the first time that I ever saw any real traces of this bitterness and sadness...at least, the first time that some of it could have potentially been directed toward me.
Now the question: If someone is dragging you down, do you not let them? Should you cut off your connection so as not to be drowned along with them? Or, is this the time that you should strive to lift them up? Because right now...the situation feels impossible...and I don't want to make myself responsible for this person's happiness. Particularly when there are so many things that say no about this.
Should I have just answered yes to that question?
I'm getting my sayings confused.
Do I not let someone drag me down? Do I attempt to raise them up with me? Should I make an effort to be there for them?
What time warp am I in, anyway? Why did this thing jump up so fast and just hit me in the face. I'm so sorry. I don't even really know why...but I feel terrible all the same.
And I don't make sense.
I don't want to be dragged down. I won't be...at least...later....
I'm confused. I'm sorry.
