Beginning of free psychology

May 22, 2005 18:20

So my other psychy journal disappeared in a puff of internet smoke. Thus beginneth the journal here. Plus, friends have introduced me to the coolness that is live journal. Anyway, this is going to end up being as much for myself as for others, so let's jump right in.

I just graduated this morning. But last night, Rebecca (who I've been dating for about a month and a half) tells me she thinks we're not going to work out. It just broke my heart and I don't fully understand it. She said the main reason is really mean, so she doesn't want to tell me, but would if I ask her to. She said that she feels awful doing it, but that it is better in the long run. She wants us to be friends, but thinks we're too different to get married. I mean, right now, yeah we are too different to get married, but in the long run, it could happen. And in the mean time, I'm having fun with her. She's great to hang out with, and quite attractive. We have many common interests.

I dunno, I just hate emotions. They're so irrational. One moment I want to throw Rebecca across the room, the next I want to hug her. The whole thing is a mess, and I think I just need to sit down and talk to someone smart about it. I have a few possibilities in mind. Friends are a blessing from On High. Emotions are the bane of my existance. None of this makes any sense, and I have no idea what I want (realistically).

Now the twist of all of this (as if it wasn't already twisted enough) is that it's in the middle of graduation. My fam is in town. So now they all met Rebecca, and like her. It sucks to have the fam meet her, and then break up. It means I need to talk to the whole family about it. Also, it just raises stress levels all over. The whole thing is making me really testy, and I'm sort of snapping at people left and right. Please someone help me through this. I guess I need to remember the inscription of the king's ring: This too shall pass.
