Is it better to stay in touch with someone because you feel obligated to or blow it all to hell? What if it isn't only obligation? Attachment to the past? A distant bond? Mutual friends?

I want to listen to Jeff Buckley, and numb my brain, and scream.

Mostly though, I want to understand.

never stay in touch with someone because you feel obligated to. that is the worst reason to stay in touch with someone. as is often said to me, the past is the past, stop living in it and move on to the future. if they aren't in your future, let it go.

I guess I know that...but easier said than done, eh?

I'm possibly not the best person to ask about this, because I tend to hang on to people a lot longer than I should, but if something's becoming toxic, end it. Otherwise, I don't see the problem in at least hanging on to someone's phone number. If you were friends at one point, even if you're not so close anymore, there's probably going to be a time at some point where you'll be in the same place again.

depends. if the relationship's damaging, def blow it off. and by damaging, i don't just mean psychologically destroying, i mean taking up too much of your time or holding you back from moving on. that said, if it's someone from andover, i'd try my best to maintain those ties, cuz you never know *who* is gonna end up one of the multi-millionaires in our class (prolly not me, but please still be my friend!)

...now after writing that, i wonder if you were referring to someone specific. if so, and what i said doesn't apply, just ignore it (but still be my friend?) :-D

be happy!

hehe, thanks jenny. I guess i decided it was doing just that ,taking up too much of my time. Or if not time , subconsious thought.

Either way, I need a yearly emo livejournal post. hehe

Izzy, I have love for you. You weren't joking about your emo posts. I look forward to being ghetto, it seems as though it may balance out the nature of your livejournal.
