I'm Sad

PM_Mama00 · #1 10-19-2002, 01:47 PM

You know how you cannot help your feelings? I've been in love this guy for 2 years now, and he's one of my very good friends. He knows, and has known. I'm over the part of being with him because I know I could never get him, but I can't help the fact that I like him a lot. I'm bringing him to my semi-formal (yay!) as friends. Then last nite he was sittin with his arm around one of my new members, the same one that was talking to him all nite at a party. AND I heard one of his brothers tell him to ask her to their semi-formal. I'm glad he respects me enough to come to me and ask this (tho I'd never expect him to cuz he's not my property), and it made me so sad... "Would it bother you if I asked one of your sisters to my semi-formal?"

Not mad... just frustrated and sad. Anyone sad about anything?

not sad but frustrated....a couple of my sisters have decided that i'm a "serial dater" because i've never had a long term relationship...and they're trying to make me promise that i won't date anyone for a while....but i really like this guy who is nice and sweet and told me last week that he was really disapointed that i had a boyfriend during homecoming (however i don't have one anymore)

i'm also sad that a very good friend of mine is leaving for california tomorrow (he's in the army) to train for a possible ar in Iraq

Oh honey.........I really do know how you feel. The thing is, instead of asking if I would mind if he dated a "sister"-he asked for my BED!

It was a really cheap matress on the floor. I was getting a new one in a mater of days. STILL! It absolutely BROKE my heart. We had dated for about 3 months but he moved on as I was too "conservative".THEN, he went to FLorida and met someone... Talk about a bummer.

Now, the good part- when Hubby and I decided to get married, he came on hand and knees and...a few tears. It was too late.
(Well, actually I always wanted my hubby we just had a LOT of lengthy breakups.)

The point is, things are always changing and just because you are hurting today, doesn't mean that tomorrow you won't find your happiness. It does hurt like hell for now, but I PROMISE you, it won't hurt like this for too long.

I'm sad that Mr. ChiOJenn moved to NC-and we haven't seen each other in 3 weeks, and it will be another month before we see each other again. To make it worse, he's in Texas right now visiting his parents, and he's only 5 hours away, but I still can't see him!It's so hard knowing that he's so close to me, but there's nothing I can do(I have to work

)!!

I'm frustrated that I don't have a job and can't get an interview.
I also wish that Rob wasn't up north right now. It makes me sad that we aren't able to be together half as much as we used to. I'm also very mad that this damn sniper isn't getting caught. Nowhere seems to be safe anymore. When kids can't even play little league football because of fear, there is something wrong with society.

I miss my sisters so much and my family. I'm so glad that I've decided to go back to CO.

I'm sad and frustrated about my life right now, on a few counts - I'm really unhappy with this first semester of law school. Its just SO stressful, all of my friends are gone from BR - so that means I don't have anyone to go anywhere with. So I stay in my apt ALL the time, when I'm not in class. I miss my boyfriend - he lives about 90 min away, and we see each other on the weekends. But still, we went to school together for 5 years - its wierd to only see him twice a week. And, since we're not planning on getting married for another 18 months, or so, its going to be a LONG wait until things are non-sucky.

My boyfriend and I had a huge fight last night over something really dumb. Although we smoothed things over, I just can't shake the feeling that things aren't where they should be. Funny enough, I just signed onto Greekchat to keep my mind off of it; but, then I read this thread, and my mind is back on it. I hope everyone starts their week off better than this weekend has been.

Even though I love it at my new school very much, I do miss my friends and sisters from back home. I am sooo happy for them and so proud of them. They went up against the odds and pulled through in the end. But i just really miss that closeness with them. My Deltasigs here are so awesome. They are making my transistion sooooo smooth. I just still miss my other deltasigs and the girls that were really good friends with me. Their homecoming weekend is next week. I am planning to go, but I don't know if I can make it because it's a LONG ways home.. and an expensive drive too.

I spent last night feeling sick and crying. Worse off, one of my sisters was totally mean to me when I called her last night. I asked her what she was doing and she was like "I'm pregaming at so-in-so's and I invited so-in-so cause she's been sick all week"..LIke I'm not good enough to be invited??? She did the same thing on friday night. I didn't talk to the bf all weekend and now I'm a little frustrated with him. Plus my roommate was sick all last week and I think I'm coming down with whatever she has.

Is there something going on this weekend that everyone's having a sucky time?

I went to dinner with the guy i'm dating (not my boyfriend-YET~ he will be soon if i have any say in it, he's a sweetie!) on Friday, and then we were meeting some of his friends for drinks afterwards. We had one drink, then he got really sick and we went home. Yeah I was disappointed that the night was cut short, but it sucks to be sick, so I just babied him the whole way home.

Then yesterday I was just stupid and got in a stupid argument with him on IM (I HATE IM SOMETIMES!)..... Does anyone else think that IM should have a sensor to tell when you're getting pissed off, and put like a 5 minute delay on the messages so you can think about them first? He put up an away message, and I just sent him a couple things that I wish i could take back now. So I felt like a heel the rest of the night, text messaged his phone with a sorta apology (even though what we argued about was his fault

). Haven't talked to him since them (he was at some dinner party at his mom's last night). So i'm frustrated.

I REALLY like this guy... he's sweet, he treats me really well, he's basically everything that I would put on my perfect guy checklist. Well, except for the fact that he does act like a guy at times! (girls know what i mean by this!). So why did i have to be stupid??? ARGH! He's perfect for me, and i so totally want things to work out.

JUNIORGRRL- if you need someone to talk to about law school, PM me or send me an email anytime. I'm having a pretty decent time of it, but I can relate to frustrations, exasperations, etc. As well as being a little lonely. My "friends" are all still around (my sisters from undergrad), but it's not the same and I really don't talk to many of them. Thankfully I've found a group of friends in my section that hangs out a lot- i'm blessed with being in a wonderful,super friendly and non competitive section. Hope things look up for you!

PM Mama- great job starting a venting thread for this weekend!

Anybody else notice that the only people that have posted to this thread are women, and most of the problems involve MEN!????

The saying is so true, can't live with 'em, but can't live without 'em!

Texas princess-
I just transferred schools and I'm in the process of affiliating too!! I totally understand what you're going through. I went to school in Sc and now I'm here in OH, so it's a 10 hr drive if I want to see my sisters in Charleston.. My big is getting married down by the water in Sc next month, and don't think I'll be able to go ..If you ever want to talk, pm me!!!

texas*princess · #13 10-20-2002, 12:22 PM

Huh. So many of us are feeling crappy this weekend.

I'm sad for a variety of reasons, too boring and numerous to get into but in short -- life, money, work, etc. Everything is sort of rough right now, and I end up just feeling overwhelmed and annoyed. I know it will all get better, but for now it really sucks.

When all else fails, the one thing that makes me feel a *little* better for a few minutes is curling up in bed with a purring kitty cat.

Can I join the club? I am a little bummed too.

The day started off good, I went running by the lake.

Got home and it all fell apart: went to make dinner, took trash outside, locked myself out, went next door, called management, they dont come at all, dinner starts burning, I brake back window, get glass everywhere, put water on flaming food, management calls and says they won't come till manana, so i have cleaned my house and now can't go anywhere till a new window is back in my door. And now there's the smell of burnt food in my kitch.

On top of that am a little bummed about a guy that has not called back. We went out a few weeks ago, and then he went out of town, I left him a message ... Oh well. Not so much bummed about him, just that nothing seems to work out for me. I either lose interest or the guy does.

And I am still a little sick.

But Counting Crows is tomorrow and I am going home in a week for my birthday.

Hope all else for you all works out. Thanks for a venting thread!
