Why aren't you online?

Also, I'm not sure what it says that he wanted to argue about it after I'd said how strongly it was affecting me. Remember a certain time last year when talking to you sickened and depressed me? That's how I'm feeling right now. But he went on anyway...as if winning meant more than the fact that I wanted to throw up.

Are you suggesting that life doesn't revolve around me and my need to talk? Take a break?
