I’ve neglected this long enough. I have hidden how terrible things have been getting. I neglect my friends on here, who ALWAYS seem to comment with words of encouragement, and advise on what I need to do with myself. For that I am sorry. I Find myself feeling like more of a piece of shit every day. People don’t play fair. And I am a prime example of that.

Amanda and I were trying to make things work in what little possible way they could. I was trying to see her as much as I could. Money got tight again, and it caused me to have to stop. She thinks It was because I stopped caring. The truth is I feel like we will never work. I deep down want it too, yet I don’t see it. So I find myself searching for happiness in other women. Sure I think about sex, but the thing is I don’t try to. I want someone who isn’t all about it. Anyway. My college screwed up my finacial aid for this semester. So I have to wait ANOTHER semester. Amanda thinks I am lying about this. I had all my books paid for on my credit card. I wasn’t lying.

If Amanda stopped talking to me for the rest of my life right now. He last words would be "Man up". I may not be a strong man mentally, but thats because of the people who put me here. I fought my way out for awhile. but I feel like I dug myself a new grave.

 

I’ve been trying to talk to this girl. Something about her makes me smile. So I did a bad thing. I threw a party at my best friends while he was away at his military thing. I bought alcohol for 5 underage minors. I wasn’t planning to make any moves on her. ( yes this girl is underage she is 18) She is a red head. She has a smile that could choke the breath out of you anyday. yet she is moving away in two days. So last night we had a decent time with her and her friends ( my friends too ) played some drinking games, laughed, lived a little. She collects Mike’s Hard lemonade caps. I don’t know why, but I have always kept all my beer caps. So I got her all mine that I had. and gave it to her. She liked it, but nothing came out of it. So last night when everyone went to bed, I took all the new caps from the night, and grabbed a sharpie. I wrong my number one by one on 7 caps. then I wrote call me, on 6 other caps. (inside) I felt so confident and cool about it. Then this morning when I woke up, all the caps were still there, and she was gone. with my hopes… I don’t know why I do this to myself. I constantly throw myself to someone. I give them all the power to crush me. Is it so much to ask for someone like her to love me? Someone like amanda. I can’t make anyone love me. but why does everyone else get the satisfaction of all that. There is no hope for me anymore in this world. I think I am getting closer again to just giving up on everything.

I may be emotional, too emotional, freakishly emotional. But it is who I am. I don’t have anyone to give me that confidence in myself anymore. It would be so easy… I’m looking at the answer right now. one pull.

Amanda doesn’t sound healthy for you…. Have you read about the cycles of mental/emotional abuse… just when you’re ready to call it quits, the abuser does something awesome to keep you connected…. Sure there is a certain level of work that goes into every relationship (or friendship) but when the negatives outweigh the positives, time to really assess the relationship…. You know it’s hard to accept but sometimes you really do just out grow relationships. that’s completely normal and ok! Good luck (PS. are you a Cancer? Are you born June – July?)

Never give up. Never stop showing others you care… one day it will pay off and it will be the best pay-off you ever get. It makes me so sad when people pull away and get shy and stop trying… *hugs* You are stronger than you think. And you are a far better man than Amanda seems to think (she’s a bit crazy and shouldn’t be playing with you). Glad you updated us! So sorry about school 🙁

I agree, not only is Amanda an unhealthy person to be with but holding onto her with false hope of a future together is also unhealthy. Don’t let anyone define your worth as a person. Be secure with yourself first, before you are secure in a relationship. Your Mrs Right will walk beside you, not all over you.

Three words: DON’T GIVE UP! I am sure you don’t want to hear them right now, but you HAVE to. You need to look yourself in the mirror and know that yes, you may be emotional, but that’s what makes you an incredible guy. If you lived any closer, I’d take you out for a few drinks, introduce you to some of my friends, and not let that girl get under your skin. Sorry if I sound harsh, but you…

…are stronger than you realize. You didn’t pull anything, and you’re still here. You wrote instead. That’s a strength. Don’t quit putting yourself out there. If you do, you may miss out on an opportunity. SO, you get screwed over in the process? When it gets better, it will all be worth it. And it WILL get better.
