Because Gayle told me to
Sep. 12th, 2005 08:07 pm1) Reply with your name and I'll respond with something random about you.
2) I'll tell you what song/movie reminds me of you.
3) I'll pick a flavor of jello to wrestle with you in. (Management reserves right to substitute other substance.)
4) I'll say something that only makes sense to you and me. (Management will try very hard but not guarantee.)
5) I'll tell you my first memory of you.
6) I'll tell you what animal you remind me of.
7) I'll ask you something that I've always wondered about you.
8) If I do this for you, you MUST post this on your journal.

Date: 2005-09-13 02:45 pm (UTC)I said no, but I wasn't sure, hence this question.
My reasons?
Well I can honestly say I no longer harbor the slightest hope that he will ever be interested in me again, nor that he will grow up, realize that HE is the reason all his relationships go sour, and change his behavior.
So my reasons for sticking around are twofold: 1) I'm angry that none of the above is going to happen. I'm also angry that he has so much social and intellectual potential that he's too lazy to really utilize so I wanna be around to watch his life crash and burn. It gives the ever slighted woman in me pleasure.
2) I expected him to drop me a LONG time ago. But he hasn't and I know he values me as a friend even though we don't talk very often. He always makes time to see me when I'm around, always finds time to talk to me when I call. We've known each other for seven years now and to me that counts for something. Most of my friendships don't have so long a shelf life. So, even though I know he is bad for me as well, I keep this distanced friendship because we have a history and despite all the shit we hate about each other, we "get" one another. Though neither of us would ever admit it to the other.

Date: 2005-09-13 08:12 pm (UTC)I like your number 1. That's something Steph would never understand and that's something that I totally don't understand about her. If that makes sense.
I also agree with #2. Last time he called me, which was like 9 months ago, I was just happy he still had my number in his phone. And one thing I always like about him from day 1 was that I felt like he understood me w/o my having to explain myself. Like he saw through the facade of triviality.
Also, I send him an email on his birthday every year because there are so few people in the same class year as me who are younger than me, and I think it's funny that he's younger than me. And I know that he'll never write back.

Date: 2005-09-14 02:40 pm (UTC)Is Steph not the sort of person who wishes ill of others?
I've fogotten to send him birthday emails these last few years. At Knox it was easy cause his presence was a visual reminder. And even though I still mark it on my calendar I don't do anything to acknowledge it anymore. Yes, I'm a bad friend.
no one asked my opinion, so here it is
