I was up in my room playing Drakengard (the title of this blog comes from 2 weapons names in the game.. that kinda relate to the subject matter of this blog) and eating supper when Ryan called me and asked me to come outside. So, I did. He got me a game I've been going on about (Dragon Quest IV: Chapters of the Chosen) somehow. He wouldn't tell me, but I know he probably traded in something he didn't want to, else he wouldn't been so secretive. But, whatever, he got me a (really good) game and came to see me for a bit. I kinda needed it. We talked about the whole situation and just normal nerdy stuff we always talk about. I did mention to him that I didn't want this situation coming between us and he assured me it wasn't. I kissed him goodbye and went inside.

I went upstairs to turn off my game, and finish supper, then went downstairs to put my up dirty dishes. On the way back Dad stopped me. He asked if we could talk and since I've been waiting for it for a couple days now I complied.

He told me that he didn't mean to say the things he did and that I can live the life I want. He said it was just a shock and that he said things he didn't mean to say. He said he realized that on the drive he took that night (and I think probably from talking to Deborah and Kim.). He also said he's going to love me not matter what but he prefer I do it outside the house because he didn't like Ryan.

I'm a bit relieved, but I still have an issue. I am not going to tell Ryan he can never come over again. In fact, I'm probably going to ask for him to come over today (Sunday). I say ask loosely, because I'm not taking no for an answer, but I am going to talk to my Dad about it. I want to make him comfortable and tell him how things are going to be instead of just doing it.

I'm going to tell him that I know he doesn't like Ryan, but I do. And anyways, we are up in my room and I'm no more loud than if I have any other friend over. I'm going to tell him how I don't see it as an issue and that he should be a little less judgemental. There are some isolated incidents that I actually got on to Ryan about: teasing the dogs (which Dad told me about) and jumping over the banister (which Ryan told me about... as did Deborah). Besides Ryan being an overall "weird" guy, what with the piercings and hair and all... I can't really see why my Dad feels the need to judge him, and I'm going to tell him that.

I know, it's like, as soon as everything cools down I'm ready to go again. But, this is something that must be done. I need to show that I'm an adult (and the lease-owner), and that I've never objected to any of his friends, choices, etc involving this apartment (or any other time). Not trying to sound like a kid, but... "it's so not fair."

I think withing a month or 2 I'm going to tell him that I'll probably be moving out once the lease is finished because it probably will be for the best for both of us.

I hope everything works out like I'm hoping.
