I love you, too, Yvonne, it's just when someone "pulls a Crystal" on me, especially after they know my background and PROMISED me many times that they weren't like "everyone else" who dumped on me for a guy, you turn and do the exact same thing. I don't care if you didn't have the internet - neither did Crystal. You both had phones and were perfectly capable of calling me to let me know that you were still alive. It doesn't exactly make me very inclined to want to rekindle a friendship when someone has outright turned on me and went back on a promise they made to me. I'm glad that I don't trust people. This incident is a perfect example of why I don't believe folks when they tell me that they will never turn their back on me for a guy. Now I know, once again, that trusting someone (in this case, you, a has-been close friend) was the WRONG thing to do, and I'm glad that I didn't fall for it yet again. I have 2 emails here from you, one says "Now... I am not the kind of person that would dump a friend because I have "moved onto
( ... )
Liz... I DID try to call you several times. A couple of times the phone rang and rang and rang. I never got a message thingy. A couple of other times it said that the phone was no longer in service. Now, either I was calling you mom's car, or you had you cell phone turned off.
However, if you feel this way... well, I don't know what to say. It makes me sad that you DO feel this way, but it is certainly your right to have feelings. I swear that I haven't abandoned you. Don't I send you and update every now and then? Don't i make an effort? I do, indeed. And i have NOT forgotten you exist. Even as I was headed to Jacksonville for Christmas vacation, I asked you how far apart we would be. It was my intention to finally meet you in person, but we were just too far apart.
I'm not angry, just sad that YOU seem to be the one who EXPECTS me to screw you over... and I haven't, nor will I.
I didn't hear from you for MONTHS before you did actually email me. That classifies being abandoned, imo. I'm not going to say that I won't be friends, it's just that there will never be the same level of...closeness?....that there used to be.
Ummm...I can remember you calling me at home. My mom remembers talking to you at home. Our cell phone has about zilch reception inside our house. She also remembers waking me up when you called one time and I remember answering our cordless phone and talking to you.
OK, then that must be the number I have called that rings and rings and rings. Still, it seems to me that since you EXPECT me to abandon you, no matter what I say or do, you will feel like I have, so the point is moot. I swear Liz, I do love you like a sis, but there are things here that... are just... crazy. Don't forget that I have other problems than not being connected to the internet. My brother, for instance, even now takes up a lot of my time.
I "expect" everyone to do that because it's always happened. If I didn't feel like you didn't abandon me, I wouldn't have said anything. Not getting in contact with someone for months is abandonment, imo, but like you said, the point is moot.
I hope things with your brother get better. Has he always been like this?
No, I just can't believe that you believe months went by without me e-mailing you. I MADE SURE to e-mail you at LEAST once a month. Don't forget that one time I sent you mail that i stupidly sent to .net instead of .com
Still... I just don't know what to say or do to make it all better. And you probably wouldn't want me to anyway.
