""My scatterbrained and difficult life needs sorting out, too..."" I am so like that too! I think its what being an artist is, when you are scattered you are more able to think of creative amazing things than a logical person

hahah. I totally gave up on that argument. I seriously respect that guy's talent for leatherwork but... well, it's clear that internet discussions are not going to change a thing for that guy, better not waste the rest of my time. >_>
Thank you sooo much! I am glad it has improved your day, that means a lot. I've seen your artwork before too and greatly enjoy your style, I can't believe I didn't check out the rest of your gallery before. I greatly enjoy your painting style, and you're so good at skin tone! <3 I look forward to seeing more from you.

ATTY D: I hate exes.
Just saying.
I really.
hate.
them.
and they throw me into rages.
Like cursing out loud and flailing and cursing everything and eating angrily, and you know, 2 months of not talking to me after I give em a birthday card and they are all OH I'LL KEEP IN TOUCH WITH YOU <333 - cue 2 months of silence.
and just yesterday they're all LOL HI I REMEMBER YOU EXIST~~

And shit.

._.
Hi Atty I love you <3333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333

Exes can do that sort of stuff Welp. They don't necessarily mean HARM or anything? Like they might have thought the break would be good for the both of you? And maybe that's complete nonsense and they're just silly but you know, staying friends with exes is always slightly complicated < Don't let it make you feel tooo bad!

I love you tooooo Michi <33333333333 Hang in there!

I love you ;A; And you're wonderful dearie and honestly just alsjdfklajsdfk I do not deserve you as a friend Atty ;AAAAAAA; <3333333333333333333333

Nope.
As in.
Literally.
After that break up in January, there was a no talking period until... May. ish. When I gave him the card, on his birthday, he sends me a text saying that I'm a sweet person and the best and stuff and that he'll keep in touch with me .

...CUE 2 MONTHS OF ABSOLUTE SILENCE.
And a text that says "OH I WAS READING YOUR CARD THAT YOU SENT ME AND I REALIZED THAT I MISSED YOUR PRESENCE FROM MY LIFE. So how are you 8D?"
._.
And, this was just splendid because then later on I receive a text that says "Oh well, what we had, it was wrong but it was nice"
..Nice as in , I didn't check my phone to see your 'WE NEED TO TALK ASAP' warning pre-break up text before I see you in the hallway, on the day that I have two important tests, which, then, I get the bullshitted reasons for the break up (which, we lasted a little over a month, and the period of time that he actually liked me was probably about a week or so? He gives me a jar full of love notes and stuff (which, I burned. In June.) which, before he even made it , he was already thinking about ending it with me anyway) and then you know, that's it.

BAM.
And while I did not have any emotional breakdown physically(YAY FOR THAT |D), it was probably my inner turmoil and a age-long chorus of "You're just a joke and no one will even look your way at all, and everyone will say that they like you but they really really don't, and you're so /stupid/ as to believe that they would even consider you in that way because really." reeling in my head that day which is why I did not do that great on those midterms that I had studied for.
Welp.

And then you know, the only reason why I'm not verbally tearing him up into little shreds is because even if I put some effort into it, he doesn't give a damn about anyone.
So it would all be in vain
And you know, the fact that I have to deal with him for another year before I graduate , yeah, I would prefer not to transfer schools during my senior year 8T;;

Fun stuff.
ON ANOTHER NOTE.
Because I am a idiota,
how are you 8D? <33333333333333333333333333333333

atomicqueen In reply to MonochromeMemory [2012-07-12 15:24:01 +0000 UTC]

Noooo I'm a terrible friend LOOK HOW LONG IT TAKES ME TO REPLY TO YOUR EMOTION-FILLED MESSAGES, AAAH

I can't really offer any advice, but just repeat; dating is awkward and the other person sucks and makes you feel like you suck even though you don't. Just cause someone hasn't shown you the respect you deserve doesn't mean that they intended to cause you problems, though; they just don't know how to act like an adult. :< He probably does care in his own way. He just doesn't know how to show it.
Keep calm! Be angry if it helps, but though it's hard, you do need to ride the emotions out and just let them go sooner or later. If he's really not worth that trouble, just take some breaths, imagine that anger flowing out with them--you have more important things to focus in your life than all that drama. Like being yourself, and learning to be happy with yourself, and overcoming other challenges.

Awwh. I really wish I could just stuff all the things I learnt about myself and my emotions into this letter and send it to you and you could just eat the paper and then you'd feel the same! Look. You're a lovely person. If I'm being perfectly honest, I will admit that when you're in this panicky state, in this state where you feel unlovable, the state that I've been in and my housemate and loads of other people--you do feel unattractive, and a lot of people will act as though you are. They'll treat you like you're not quite a proper person. Which is horrible and a lie. Which you already know makes you feel even more unlovable and you find that easy to believe. You'll be ignored, and shunted to the side, and even if you have loads of friends around you, you'll feel alone.

But I only say this, not to put you into even more of a depressed state, but to try and make you feel better. Because it's temporary. I know this, honey! Just believe that, please. If you work at it, you'll get in control of yourself. You can work to be happy, and though it's hard and you'll feel like screaming sometimes and punching the wall or tearing your hair out and no one will give you any sympathy because they couldn't even imagine the amount of work it involves to learn to love yourself--it's possible.

The thing at the heart of this matter, in the way that you see yourself and others--it'll always be a problem until you learn to love yourself, and build up your confidence. The thing is, you can't love anyone else if you don't love yourself. If you don't respect yourself, anyone who dates you will either feel like they're being put on an unnecessary pedestal that distances them from you, or will feel that you respect them less because you seem to not be able to believe what could be wrong with them that would make them want to be with you... uhh. I don't know if I'm explaining this all right. (and of course those explanations may be completely unrelated to the relationship problems you've recently experienced)

What I mean is, this is just some of the reasoning, or the subconscious feeling people seem to have in these situations (based on my personal experiences)... so it will make any relationship difficult. People can still love you. You're a very lovable person. But doubt in yourself, doubt in anything plants that seed that grows into a thorn bush that taints all these emotions But. asjdkl; I have no idea if explaining this will make you feel better or worse.

I only point it all out because I've gone through it all and that was my experience and I had to realise all of this before I could make it better. I'm lovable. You're lovable. You have to belieeeve in yourself. The state you're in of feeling unattractive and unaccomplished is a temporary one--or at least, will be a temporary one so long as you can just keep putting one foot in front of the other until you learn to run. I know you can do it. You're not the kind to just sit in the dark and let problems fester. Just how long the journey is for you to love yourself and learn how to tackle your problems is one that neither of us can predict. But love is everywhere in the world. It's drawn to places of light. You just gotta create your own little candle and it'll all flutter to you like moths.

AAH MICHI I'M RAMBLING AND GOING INTO METAPHORS OR SIMILES, I DON'T KNOW
SIMILES ARE COOLER. THEY'RE LIKE SMILIES BUT MORE POETIC.
THIS IS ALL VERY INCOHERENT AND I AM PROBABLY FAILING AT MY SPONTANEOUS DECISION TO TALK ABOUT *LIFE* AND *SELF-ESTEEM* AND TRY TO LAY IT ALL OUT IN STRAIGHT LINE THAT MIGHT HELP YOU IN SOME OF YOUR FEEEELINGS. I DON'T KNOW.
IT'S 1:20AM I SHOULD GO TO SLEEP BEFORE I REALISE THAT I'VE DUG MY OWN GRAVE SOMEHOW BECAUSE MY BRAIN IS ALL OVER THE PLAAAACE AND I JUST WANT TO SAY THE RIGHT THING TO MAKE ALL YOUR PROBLEMS EVER GO AWAY BUT I HAVE NO IDEA HOOOOOW
