alright, so I was in a superemely great excellent mood this morning - goofy, silly, fun mood. Then I got an e-mail from a friend that really angered me. I just have to say this. I know I have "issues", but I have found that these are NOTHING compared to other people's deals. And I am sorry girls, I have to say it - Girls drive me crazy!!! I was just speaking about this to a guy friend of mine. We have been friends for like 4 years. And in that time we have been super close at times, and other times we have only talked once every few months. But neither of us ever went off on the other saying, "you don;t care anymore" or thinknig we did somethign to piss the other one off. That is just how things go.
That is one way in which I am different from many other girls. It is one of my more masculine traits, and I love it!!! If I make plans with someone and they have to cancel it is no big deal. Except with my boyfriend, that is a different case, but that poor wonderful man is so wonderful with my issues and such he should get a metal of honor. So all of this ranting does not apply to him :)Anyway, moving on...
If I have a show, or an event, or a get together, or anything and someone cannot come, I am not upset or angry, or feeling neglected. I know things come up, and that we will just reschedule. No tears, no fits, no being upset. My friends have LIVES that they live and when I get to have time with them - GREAT!! I love my friends, I really love them so much. I treasure all the times we have together. But there are times I can;t see them, and that is fine too. They have their own lives as do I.
I have friends from high school, heck even grade school, that I still talk to. We have been close at times, more distant at others. But every time we do see each other it is a big hug and we talk like old times.
Most of my guy friends are the same way. If they invite me to something and I can come, they are col with that. If something comes up and I can;t make it, no big deal. NO GUILT TRIPS!!!! Never has one of my guy friends said to me "I feel neglected by you, you never have time for me." Nothing like that ever!
Now some of my friends who are girls are like this also, and I treasure them for that immensly, you all rock! But to the others I have to say, CHILL OUT!!!! GET A GRIP! Friends are friends even if they don't talk everyday, or see each other every day, or whatever. Friends understand that evreyone has their own lives and they love their friends for being there when they can to enjoy the ride.
*deep breath* Sigh... well, back to work. By the way, this rant was not brought on by anyone reading this :)
