I know its been a while, but at times its harder to come back here than you may think.
So lastnight I guess I made a new friend. Real friend? Maybe, who knows. You can never really tell, I guess. So we were talking about random things to get to know one another. Somehow I got all emotional and started talking about friends that pass by through your life. I often wonder is it okay to miss some people as much as I do? Do I take friendships too seriously? It seems like I never want to get close friends, and when I do and for whatever reason they go away, I hurt a lot.
Its funny though, up until this conversation I had been perfectly content in everything I had. Now Im sitting here feeling like Im missing out on something, because of how I am toward people.
Anyway, Im basically wondering if this whole thing was a mistake. Just talking to people like that can really fuck up your way of thinking sometimes. I know its dumb, since its been years since Ive talked to him, and should have rightly gotten the hell over it by now, but I got really upset. He asked me, "would it be any easier if those friends you miss would have been there?" I instantly thought of two people I really and dearly miss, and it all just hurt a little more than it should.
I think the reason I get defensive around people is so that I dont fall back into this thinking hole that I have. Its like some sort of mind trap I cant get out of once I start. If you care about people too much, thats just what happens. And you shouldnt care about people that you arent sure you want to invest that kind of thing into.
