Vociferous relationship rant.

I realize now that I suffer when in a relationship.  I am just happier single or maybe even friends with benefits.
When I say this next thing, I don’t mean it in an egotistical, selfish way even though it might sound like it…
But when I become friends with a guy they have a tendency to like me.  When they like me, they go out of their way for me and I begin to like them.  Then, WHAM, they up and want to marry me and love me and can’t let me out of their sight.  There’s very little time to chill out and be friends and just mess around. 
I’m way too independent for clingy emotional shit and on top of that, I’m not ready for a serious relationship.  (I don’t mean I want to play anyone, far from it.  I will NEVER cheat on any guy I’m dating.)
And that’s just fact. 
What’s worse, is suddenly I’m in this relationship (never mind how strong my feelings are) that has progressed WAY too far and is way too deep for my liking.  What to do?  Once I know the other person feels this way, it’s hard to ignore. 
And I hate, HATE HATE HATE letting people down and breaking hearts.  I HATE it and I HATE making anyone cry (especially since I know it’s all my fault).  Some of the worst experiences of my life run along that line.  That’s why I usually end up just cutting myself off and being an asshole, so that it is easier for the guy to get over me.
Gezis.  This sounds so bad.

So now I’m suffering in this relationship with Kelly. 
I really do love Kelly.  There’s no doubt about that.  There’s no doubt he loves me.  But I just feel so… stuck.  Stifled.  I feel like a horrible, horrible person, actually. 
And I can’t bear to talk to him right now because I do feel this way.  I know I should probably talk to him about it but he is so fragile right now. 
That’s something else.  I, personally, am so weak right now… I’m having a hard enough time trying to stay positive without him dragging me down.  And I know it’s horrible to say all this and it only gets worse. 
I’ve always dreamed of going with someone athletic.  Someone to work out with, someone to walk with, HELL, someone to have midnight krump contests with (being active IS my whole life)!  Kelly ain’t gonna do that for me and it isn’t his fault his left leg alternates between complete numbness and unbearable pain.
He hates everything about his life (except for me) at the moment and while he may try to be positive at times, I always know that on the inside he wishes he were dead and there’s nothing I can do about it.
I’m scared I’m the only reason he’s still on this Earth, actually. 
I mean, I’m always going to be here for him, no matter what (he is my homie on top of it all) but… I don’t know if I can be with him.

I’m just so stuck.  I don’t know what to do.  All I know is I’m unhappy. 
And what makes me furious, is that I KNEW this would happen.  That’s why I lost my shit that night I admitted to Kelly that I loved him.  I KNEW I would end up here.  I KNEW it.  And yet I did it anyway because I wasn’t sure what that panicky feeling was…  : (

So, why can’t I take a day off…?
For real.  I’m not getting ANYTHING done today.  I am just completely and utterly emotionally spent.
And my eating disorder is getting worse again.
FUCK.

Feeling::  I can’t even describe it.  Just… blah, I guess.  Blank.  Empty.

And I definitely just busted my left shoulder.

My stereo broke at home, too.  NO bueno.  I don’t know how I’m gonna survive.  Wow.

*hug* I hope it all works out. I don’t really know what else to say. Be strong?

Poor Inmate *hugs* It sucks but somehow it will work out. Although I really know how you feel.

RYN: Yes I love cats so much. I have 5 named Bynx, Reigna, Margot, Blacky, and Petey. Sadly, we are getting Blacky put down soon since she is almost 24 and getting unhealthy. :'( My cat Reigna is 1/4 Asian Leopard and was 1,000 dollars! She is a Bengal. How about you?

I just have a tendency to find guys at all the wrong times who just want to be with me when all I want is to be single and not get my or anybody else’s hopes up about something more happening. And I end up miserable because I stress over the fact that I don’t want to hurt their feelings by telling them the truth. Lately I end up feeling really closed in and stifled when I’m dating someone.

You busted your shoulder? Eeek! I’m always the one to shy away from “serious” relationships. I don’t know, it’s like I love the guy but can’t stand anyone who clings to me, ya know? Thinking of you with much love.

I know exactly what you mean, this has happened to me too. I’ve jumped into things before I was ready and ended up not knowing what to do and eventually breaking the guy’s heart. It SUCKS, I know. I think the only thing you can do is just be honest from the very beginning about your intentions. Make sure you say out loud that you’re just friends having a good time. And if you do end up liking the

guy and want to date him, then just take it slow, and make sure he knows you want to take it slow and get to know each other. I don’t really know what you should do about Kelly – I don’t know the full situation. But you can’t stay in a relationship just to save someone because the truth will eventually come out. If you’re really unhappy, you’re going to have to be honest, as gently as you can.

maybe this is the psyc student in me, but I recommend trying to understand why you get to this point in realtionships. What makes you feel stiffled? Maybe it’ll help (you, not necessarily the relationship).

I think reading women think things like this confirms I’ll be single prolly forever. lol. No stereo, hurt left shoulder & conflicted heart? Sheesh, girl. Hang in there. You know what the best policy is, my friend? Is to COMMUNICATE & be honest. It’s worse to let things linger. I don’t know your friend, is he REALLY that fragile? I know U can’t lie to yourself. It won’t work if you do. Talk 2 him.
