have you ever thought you could change someone? like, for the better? and you've sat around and thought to yourself, no i'm not one of THOSE people...one of those people that try to spread their good onto others, but maybe you just shouldn't?
i thought i could change someone, and i realize (so stupidly, after so much wasted time) that i can't. and it's not really defeat i feel, but more like disappointment. i've said it before, but i have really high expectations for people. and i saw potential in this particular person (not romantically, mind you, not in the LEAST), and this person just let go. which is fine, less for me to keep trying at with no results.
but it's still frustrating, no? i like to see people succeed (most of all myself), and when someone can be successful, but they choose not see that in themselves, it makes me mad.
in other news: i don't think i can write decent poems without kevin stein. and i can't find a job. weeeee. disappointment!!!!!!!!
