Miserable

Well tonight my title says it all.  I couldn’t be much worse.

My best friend needs me and there’s nothing i can do.  She’s literally fighting for her will to live and i’m stuck down here wondering if she’s still alive.  There’s nothing i can say.. It doesn’t make a difference to her.  She knows i love her.  But ultimately.. I make no difference.  I can’t even begin to understand what she’s going through, i’ve been miserable and hopeless all week over something tiny.. I can NOT imagine what she is dealing with.. What i’m feeling times 10.. I can’t even imagine trying to deal with that.  I just don’t know what to say to her.  I just wish i could be with her.  A presence is so much more than words on a screen.  Not to talk to her.. But to sit with her, sleep with her, cry with her.. I don’t want to nag her..  To tell her it’s okay when it’s clearly not.. I just want to be there with her when she’s going through this.

Tonight i am lonely.  Beyond lonely.  And i just feel a helplessness within me that i can’t talk myself out of tonight.  My soul longs for Paul and i keep telling myself to have faith that i will come out of this for the better but tonight my heart is speaking louder than my head.

I can’t have him in the way i want him.. I know that and I really am trying my hardest to accept it.  Right now though.. I miss him.  Not in the way that you miss having a boyfriend.. But i miss HIS touch, HIS smell and the softness in which he talks to me.. That softness is gone from his voice now.  I spent Thursday night with him and it was so different.  It hurt.. A lot to see the effort he was going to, to ensure that he only meant everything in a "friends" way.

He doesn’t talk to me like a friend though.. I mean he does.. But it’s awkward.. It feels like he’s conscious of every word he says, like he’s thinking every second.  It puts me on edge.  The fact that he isn’t relaxed, that he wont say what immediately comes to mind.

I saw him thrusday night to watch Prison Break and Nip/Tuck.  Afterwards we ended up playing around and making out.. Which lead to his bedroom or more specifically his bed.  I thought it’d affect me more.. To kiss him again and have him around me so close again, but to be honest, it didn’t affect me at all.  It didn’t make me happy or sad.. It just happened.  Although we went to the kitchen to get a drink, and we sort’ve mentioned that this was wrong etc and he said something like he wouldnt want me to get the wrong idea and stuff and he didn’t want me to be hurt out of it and i was like nah it’s okay and stuff and then he said something that’s stuck with me.

It was only casual but he just sorta laughed and goes "it’s just sex, yeah" i dunno what it was about it.. I guess the carelessness and in that moment i truely saw how little feelings he had for me.. I can see every second of that moment so clear, it haunts me.  Because i can still recall the way i felt.. Like someone had suddenly hallowed out my whole body, or tried to push everything down into my feet or something.

I need to stop talking about this.  I know everyone is fed up.  I just don’t know how to deal with missing him so bad.. I always fix my problems asap if i have any.. I hate feeling the terror i have inside me right now.

That’s what it is.. Terror.  Terror for Jackie and terror for myself.

Terror.

This is your diary. You can write about anything you want. I don’t mind hearing (or rather reading really) about it. I completely understand what you’re going through. Just be strong. If I lived closer I would totally hang out with you so you weren’t so lonely. But I’m no where near you.. Hang in there, it’ll get better. :]

I think you should keep talking about it, it makes you feel better kinda. I’m not sure how to give advice without sounding patronising. Just…do what makes you feel good, but think about the long term too. You’ve got a good head on your shoulders, you know what he’s like and what he’s doing. I hope you feel better soon. xx

Keep in there. We always think we’ll never get over it or be lonely forever after someone hurts us like this but it never does stay like that. The first couple of weeks are absolute terrible, and then you will start adapting to life without them and it makes things a tad easier.

if you can’t obsess about how you feel in your own diary, then what is the point? i complain about my hopeless crushes etc and that is all they are, you and Paul were so important to each other, and you need to write it out to help you! not to get over it, but to stop you from going insane! i hope you cheer up soon jen ps. hope the playlist i gave you is helping somewhat

yeah man, ditto to what all the above say. definitly let it all out. i wish so much i could help you right now. keep your chin up.i know your strong. you can take this on, and your going to be that much stronger in the end. take care of yourself, your so pretty and you deserve so much better, remember that eh. as hard as it is, try and keep yourself busy. dont let your mind get atcha.

Keep your head up, and don’t give in. The first few weeks will be hell but slowly he will vanish, and the void you feel in your heart will fill and he will be replaced. Not entirely, but the pain will be less everyday and you will cope. you will survive. If others have done so, so can you! If I could I would offer more help, but Im unsure of how. If you ever need someone Im here.
