That I'm madly in love with the song "Somebody that I Used to Know" by Gotye and Kimbra. I was before certain events transpired, but even more now. Read yeserday's post to see more.
I Confess...
I'm feeling the need for change. Either a lot of it in little doses, or a little in a big dose. That's why the blog header and button got a new makeover. What do you think of them?
I Confess...
Someone who has been my friend for a very long time, who I have a huge history with, doesn't want to be my friend anymore. He accused me of overhearing him have a conversation about something that was none of my business this past weekend, and then running and gossiping about it. This is not even slightly true. It was told to me months ago, and then I moved on because guess what? I don't care.
I Confess...
I'm not hurt that he is wrong about this whole thing-I'm upset because any one who is a real friend would maturely approach their friend and say "I heard (or I think) this transpired, can you tell me if that's true?" That's what real friends do. If that's how it's going to be, I'm okay with walking away from it all.
I Confess...
I'm having trust issues at the moment with other people because of this whole thing. People who I'm afraid don't always have my back-even though it's honest.
I Confess...
It's times like these that make me insanely grateful for the other friends I have surrounding me. No matter what disagreements we may have, annoyances, or issues that arise-these true friends stick together and discuss it honestly-then IF something has been done wrong we work it out forgive each other. Why? Because we love each other and that's what you do when you love people.
I Confess...
I'm going to miss him a lot. I have loved him. I have loved his family. I will always love him and them. But I will be okay with this new path I am headed down.
I Confess...
It may even be healthier for me to completely let go of this friendship. At least for a while. A sweet blog friend told me yesterday that she thinks exes can only be friends after enough time has gone by that everyone had actually healed. We never gave it any time in between, so now it's time to.
I Confess...
Those friends I have that rally around me and support me are truly my family. I love them so much!
What do you have to confess?
ok first of all i LOVE the new header. the quote (i love quotes) is perfect and the font and colors, too. awesome!
ReplyDeletealso i cannot tell you angie how many people have come and gone from my life from similar situations like yours. i have just come to realize that those people weren't meant to be in my life and like you i truly truly love each and every friend in my life who has stayed around and been there for me no matter what. good days and bad days. who would rather forget some crazy stupid drama and do some kind of crazy shananigan instead.
I agree with that statement about exes as friends. Time is never a bad thing- it gives us space to heal and grow. I admire your maturity in dealing with the entire situation.
ReplyDeleteI lost my best friend of 12 years when she called me out of the blue and basically told me all the things she hated about me, most of them having to do with who I was friends with on Facebook. (?!?!) We never spoke again. I learned from that experience that sometimes the people that we think we know the best are completely different. Anyways, I just wanted to say thank you for being a great friend- I just got your Xmas card and I love it!
ReplyDeletegreat song
ReplyDeleteI hate that your "friend" wants to end things but that sign that you posted is so true.
ReplyDeleteHave a great Christmas weekend!
Oh, man, have I been there! I'm sorry you're going through this. I really am.
