I just don't fucking get it

I don't get what's wrong with me

It's like a second dose of teen angst...but not really.  I don't think I'm always right, I don't hate my parents, I don't think that no one understands me... I'm just so frustrated.  Anything can set me off, and then I get into this blah-whatever mood, and sometimes it lingers.  And then sometimes it leaves.  And then I feel like an asshole.

Lately its been Pete setting me off, and I don't even know why.  Maybe I'm just lashing out at anybody, maybe it's cause I feel comfortable with him... but I think that would be all subconcious.  Sometimes I feel like he should be able to read my mind.  Or sometimes I want him to be in the same mood I am, and when he's not, I get upset.  Or sometimes it's just something trivial, something he says and it's like I'm pulled under into this place where all I want to do is yell at him, or even worse, passively aggress at him.  I just get quiet and short and expect him to ask me what's wrong, and if he doesn't, I get even more pissed.  Or if he's frustrated that I'm upset, I get more pissed.  Or pretty much anything he does just gets me more and more upset.  And I just don't get it.

Or if he's in a good mood and I'm in a bad mood, I get pissed.  Maybe it's because I'm jealous that he's happy or spunky or playful or whatever.  Maybe it's because misery loves company.  Maybe it's because I want him to comfort me.  I dunno.  But it's killing me because all I seem to do is get upset at him.  And I don't want to push him away.  Why the hell am I doing things that I used to do before?  I thought I was done with this whole miserable irratible bullshit.

It seems like I'm always annoyed with him.  I don't know why.  I don't know what's going on.  And then naturally, my paranoia sets in and I just envision him dumping me over the phone after I've pissed him off for the last time.  I get scared that I'm so expendable.  Sometimes I really believe that he could just leave me like that.  That he won't want to look past that part of me and see who I really am.

And then, I think about my future and I just don't want to do it.  I don't want to grow up or go to grad school or become a therapist or do any of that.  What I really want is to do theatre, so badly.  But it doesn't make good money, and it's not a suitable career to be in when starting a family.  But God, if I could do that for the rest of my life...but I can't.  And I know there comes a time in life where everyone has to grow up and give up their dreams, but I'm fighting it so hard.  And I just need to give up.  But there's so much more I need to learn and experience and develop.  Plus I know my other half will probably throw a party once I'm done with theatre.  I can't do it in grad school.  I need to focus on psych and surviving.

I think I just need to run away.  That's what I'll do, I'll peace out, and no more pity parties over blogs.  Gah
