[Dear You. . .]

[binka_nugget]

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 B,

I can't wait to see you tonight.

Dear PT,

If I had the balls to leave, I would.
We have good times, tons of good times. Talking for hours, watching movies, playing video games... I tend to write about the bad times, I know. I just can't let go of someone I care so much about, regardless of how he treats me on his bad days. He's lost all of his friends because of things that have happened in the past... He needs someone.

He's lost all of his friends because of things that have happened in the past... He needs someone.

Things that he has done in the past, you mean?

This isn't love at all...it's pity. You wanna be a hero?

This is about your ego and not about Dan at all.

JMHO

How can you say its my ego? I don't even have an ego. It is about Dan. It's about me caring too much and him not enough.

[Catty1]

I say it's your ego because you would rather be needed than wanted.

You want to be good and important enough that you will make him love you more.

That is ego.

And it's also repeating the same fight you have with your dad.

You're not gonna win with this one, hon.

If Dan was wonderful and really loved you and you "won" - the challenge would be gone and the joy would fade out pretty quickly.

Until you find another "challenge" to get the adrenaline going again.

It's called the "thrill of the kill". You get hooked on the trying to win. It's very addictive - and many people, especially women, get hooked.

Have a look and see if trying to get your dad's attention doesn't kinda feel the same way....

[ILoveMyAbbyGirl]

I don't try and get my dads attention. I've given up on that. Its over, its done, I lost. He's got his wife, she's completely turned him around, and is trying to brainwash the rest of the family.

As far as dan, its not a game. I know you won't believe me, regardless of what I say. Dan is the first person I've cared about this deeply in a long time. I'm not going to deny that part of it is about being needed, but I really do love him. If he "caved" and decided he loved me, I would be so happy. I'm trying to get over dan, but its easier said than done.

I respect your opinion, but I need to do what I feel is right.
