Dear Heart,

Please, get over him. Why can't you see that he'll never care? I don't want you to break anymore...

Dear You-Know-Who:

Why did you e-mail me a copy of an airline e-ticket for a trip with your girls' group? Did you think I would be happy for you? I'm really not. You knew full well I just started a new job and won't be able to get any paid time off until at least mid-June. You have gone on other weekend trips with this group; I've met some of them and even gone with you to a fund-raiser for their children's schools; and yet I have never been invited to even a board game night, even though other "friends of friends" have joined the group since I've known you. I'm actually a little ticked off. You say I'm your heart friend and like the sister you never had, yet our friendship has gotten quite one-dimensional. I wish I could un-invite you from coming to my niece's concert, but that's not an option. I am really hurt. And by the way, I think your decision to stop seeing your therapist on their suggestion was not a good one.

Impulsively,
Elyse

Heck, I wish I could just have one...

Dear Me,
Quit being such a social outcast. Quit being so depressed about not having any friends. You'd think after 32 years of being alone that I'd be used to it...sigh....

Dear Mother Nature,

I wish you weren't so evil! Why do bad things happen to happy healthy puppies?!?!

Dear serotonin and norepinephrine:

Why are you out of balance in my brain?! I am tired of feeling depressed and crying, tired of these annoying SNRI dreams, and downright fed up with feeling drugged from the trazodone. I watch a funny sitcom, feel better for half an hour afterward and then go back to feeling lousy. I just want be normal again. Get out of those neurons and start floating around in my CSF already.

Dear B,

I can't believe I feel so strongly for you already. Please don't break my heart.

Kind of like me, you two! I have no friends outside of the internet. I barely go out -- my best friends are my family, my dogster friends & my pet talk friends, Lady, overall -- is my bestest friend though.

I'm not depressed about anything.

Dear Oreo.. and Jubilee.

I cry every night if I even think of you. I just wanna lay in bed and think about you two all night. I miss both of you. Oreo. You were my second dog -- and a personal favorite -- no one can replace you. And you couldn't replace Jubilee -- and she couldn't replace you. No one could replace anyone.

I love you two..and I just wanted to hold you two in my arms and hug you tight one last time... but no.

Sad,
me.

Meg - it sounds like all this crap happens when booze is involved.

Heck, do you need a Dan Anonymous too?

I think you need to s*** or get off the pot. You mentioned therapy. Try it for a month.

None of this is Dan's fault - you are sticking around him and it happens.

Give it up and move on.

Ooohh..awesomely harsh.

Just kidding.

I kind of agree with Catty1 -- you've been sending letters to Dan forever, and others, too -- and in every letter it seems like it involves heartbreaking or drama. You're really nice and I've been reading your letters and I will probably continue to -- but if Dan treats you bad, then why do you stick around? Leave him.

Dear second job,

I'm ready to leave you! I said I'd take ONE more shift a week.. instead I got four shifts total. This means I work 15 hour days four times a week, and the one night a week I get to myself, is actually spent driving to agility an hour outside the city. I asked for variation in my shifts.. instead you gave me training shifts in the same place.. so now I get to stay even longer to train someone. F*** YOU!

With love,
Ashley

Dear I lovemyAbbygirl,

I know you don't know me, but I have read your posts with sadness. I hope you'll take this as it is meant to be, in no way is it a criticism, but I just have to comment on one thing you wrote.

Again, alcohol shouldn't make us love each other. But you know what? I don't care. For that one night, we were in love, we were infinite, and we were so happy. If that's what it takes, I'll do it. I know its pathetic, but to feel the real Dan like that... it's so worth it. That's what you mean to me.

Alcohol is not the answer. A relationship built on the affects of alcohol is doomed from the start. Alcohol doesn't bring out the real person. Please just be very careful. This seems like a very dangerous type of relationship, especially emotionally. I really hope you do find happiness and that you will continue to share your feelings with us. Maybe you could go back through this thread and read your previous posts taking note of how often you've posted very similiar sounding events and your feelings and your resolves after each of those. Sadly it does sound like a vicious cycle. You are worth more than that and deserve better.

Sincerely,
Moe
