    I am so not a Chris Martin fan...but how the hell does a thread about Ed's participation in GCF get shut down?

    Fuck me sideways. Not everything has to be debated and delivered / met with animosity. Thought it was a positive in its intent.

    It's really not too much - once in a while - to shut the fuck up and just dig on what you've got, where you are.

    Or is it?

    After the thread with Ed's letter calling for peace was closed some time back, nothing shocks me. It's unfortunate.

    Well it got shut down because someone started attacking me personally for no good reason. When someone does that, I defend myself, I don't shut the fuck up, and I don't think I should be criticized for that. That's it. I figure when someone starts saying shit like people shouldn't voice their opinions because they simply don't match their own, and then saying lies about them, the thread is likely doomed.

    I wish that some people would just grow the F up. How some people treat their "friends" makes my brain hurt.
  • hedonisthedonist Posts: 24,524
    Sorry, RS. Sometimes it's a sign to let those so-called friends go...or at least take a step back for the time being.

    Here, just ruminating on it all. How ugliness and grace co-exist, exquisitely and inexplicably.

    That is just life, I suppose?
  • RogueStonerRogueStoner Posts: 1,716
    Yes Hedo. It was over one of my friends and how her friends are treating her which is why I got so mad. I wouldn't care as much about myself but she deserves better.

  • It is better to find out how false "friends" are sooner rather than later. Time to let it all go.

    You never really had to begin with.


    Sometimes it's not the song that makes you emotional it's the people and things that come to your mind when you hear it.

    Somehow that little guy just looks irritated versus sad/disappointed.

    Wish I could do something to help.

    Finally told my son not to contact me anymore, and by text since he doesn't answer my calls - hurts like hell and he's oblivious to some of the damage that's been inflected, but I can't deal with the inconsistency and disrespect - I'm tired and sad and lost. I don't know where to go from here. And the worst part is a large part of me wants him to get the message and just be the son he was. But he's 19 and he won't get it for a long time. I'm so sad. Been sad for years - need to put me first but don't know how.

    :hug: it is hard to back away from someone you love like that but you are right to do it until that person can treat you properly. You will figure out the path to putting yourself first one step at a time. You will try things and they will work or they won't, just keep moving forward with the things that work. It's an ever changing evolution. I wish you the best of luck! :)

    Thank you. I wish it wasn't this way, but it is. I have to learn to take care of me with as much energy as I did as a mother.

    I'm really sorry to hear that Nancy, I imagine that's really painful for you as a parent. Hopefully time will mend things a bit. He is so young still - there is still so much time for him to grow and change and make some realizations about himself and his relationship with you. Meanwhile, great idea to focus on yourself and try to find how to be happy separate from him (for now), and perhaps he can take that time to focus on himself too.

    Yes it is, and he sent me several texts this morning while at class. All the right words and I'm sure he means them, but again no follow through. I didn't respond, that's a small victory. I hate this though. Thanks PJ.

    Good thoughts to you, Nancy. No one can say your son has a mother who doesn't care. Be well.
