It's Friday! What Have You Learned?

I've learned that even though it's around 3am on Saturday that no one is around and that I'm not making sense....
 
last friday i learned to keep my tears shut whilst on the phone:(
fuckwit I am
never cry to ur female friends (they luv it that you feel worse than they do)
and never cry to ur male friends (they hate it, get angry and then u end up drowned and ur $170 eyelashes fall out)
 
I've learned that even your friends don't seem to take you seriously when you propose that scientists use more common sense if you don't have a degree in said discipline of science.

I don't have all of the information, but if you can't depend on your female or your male ones during a time of need then it sounds to me as if you need new friends.

As a guy, having a conversations that that include the girl crying is not the MOST fun in the world, but as a guy you learn to listen... that is it. If the situation calls or you are asked sure you offer advice (because most guys are fixers by nature... I am). As far as getting mad goes... again I dont' have all of the info, but that wouldn't be my first response as a guy. Now having said that, if you are crying over and over to the same guy friends over and over it would lead me to think that you are being self-depricating which in turn I could see would be frustrating and I would be the first one to stand up and let you know. All of this to say... if you need to talk... share what is bothing you on the boards or PM a friend... either way is sounds as if you have some things on your chest you need to discuss and at this moment don't have friends you can do this with.

Just my two cents...

Pretty subjective analysis Mr. Science guy. lol More than likely your friends think you are being pompus and a jerk. :rolleyes:

being told I can't possibly know more than a scientist when what's being discussed is more an issue of common sense than science seems more like not being taken seriously just because I don't have a degree.

You are welcome and good luck to you.

RIP Miation's eyelashes - 2010.
 
I've learned that drinking and gallavanting without much sleep leads to a heavy crash. Eight hours of sweet sleep later and I'm ready to make the same mistake all over again. I love Greece.
 
This week I learned that I really must trust my gut instinct because it rarely lies to me, I must stop second guessing what I know in my heart to be true.

I have known this for a long time, but this week it was driven home by another wielding a huge and heavy hammer.

Not a bad thing really, the lesson was truly hammered home this time *giggles*

I was done a huge favor:rose:
 
I've learned that a barking dog and a screaming 2 year old are not the first things I'd like to hear every morning.
 
Working away from home with no fuckin computer access sucks big time!

Hugs you close
I hated it to:rose:



I have learned that that some things never change even over time. People say they have learned by what was but are mainly deluding themselves.......

The circle will repeat, they will hurt the people in real life they claim to love again, by simply perpetuating the same mistakes.....

So very very sad:rose:
 
I've learned that I'm in love with someone as deeply as I have been in years and utterly devoted to him more so than I think I have been in years to anyone.

I've also learned my fear and masochism run deeper than I thought and that orgasms can be punishing, exhausting and nigh impossible on occasion.

I've also learned that saying, "I can't." to my sadist doesn't make the slightest difference and I end up paying for the inability later anyway :rolleyes: go figure...
 
I have learned that no matter what else is wrong with my life~I have REAL friends~here and closer to me who get me, completely. And I never knew it until everything else blew up. So it really is a true statement that when God closes a door, S/he always opens a window. And I thank her for it...

What? And you're only just learning this now?!

I learned an important life lesson this week. :)
As much as I try to understand and even make excuses the behavior of the people I know perhaps even blaming myself in entirety, and to be honest I do so that a lot, some people however, are just insensitive and plain cruel. They are centered on their own Lit dramas to the exclusion of all else, nothing more or less than that. Who am I to judge or condemn I can only accept try to understand and move on.

This week I found that I was in remission and plan to let nothing or no one rain on my parade, least of all the ones who professed to be my friends or the ones who once said they loved or cared for me. Not a query when I was ill not a, “wow that’s wonderful Yeishia," when I got my test results. I honestly think a certain someone would have preferred that I had died and simply faded from this place. Sorry Sir not today, this board is big enough for all of us to co-exist in harmony.

Ezra Pound was correct when he said we all come here carrying baggage to escape, or heal in some small way. I understand that all to well. He was incorrect when he said we all share our deep dark secrets, I learned early on when I discovered it was common practice to exchange private PM's and IM"s and when private conversations were routinely aired on in the public lounges, to dilute severely what I shared with others, even those close to me on Lit.

I posted a quote once, share a lie and if it remains a secret you can then share the truth, so far............:(

I have made some real true friendships here that keep everything firmly in perspective for me, for those friends I am so grateful.

I learned this week that my heart is still huge and that I can forgive and wish even the people who have hurt me love and happiness. I continue to send love and good thoughts their way hoping they will find the inner peace I am slowly finding. :rose:

I learned this week
that I am starting love who I am again, the parts of me others would mock and see as weakness are what in fact make me intrinsically strong......and special at least to a select few:eek:

Life is wonderful, I am getting stronger, I breathe, live and love another day!

:heart: When one door closes..:heart:

*Twirls round the room in happiness scattering rose petals in the air and sending Kisses and hugs to every one*​

EDIT: Do not get your knickers in a twist I WAS NOT referring to Leopald as the Sir.

I have learned that watching my dad cry still breaks my heart and forces me to build up stronger barriers when I comfort him. I hugged him tonight and it was so hard to keep my voice from cracking...

I have learned that my mother will only call me when I can be of some fiscal use to her.

I have also learned I can take control of my relationship with my mother by denying her what she wants to the point of even speaking to me when she asks.

I have learned that I have miles to go and a lot of time in which to grow and while my online friends and lovers may be thousands of kilometres away from me...they're still there for me when it counts and while they can't do much, they do a fuckload!

I have to give a special mention and thanks right here and right now to my wife, Ausus....fuck woman! If it kills me, I'll get to meet you IRL one day :kiss:

This woman pushed me to apply for my first job in many months today, she made me feel a little motivated to try and gave me a reason to do it so she might be just another screen name to some but she is so much more to me.

She's my wife because we bicker like an old married couple, she's my partner in crime because we're always getting in trouble together, she's my best friend because we share absolutely everything with each other. I'll always be her bitch, she'll always be my lady, I fucking love you babe. Thank you :rose:

I also have to give special mention and thanks to my sadistic Leopald who has stuck by me through an incredible amount of emotional trauma in the few months we've been together. The few but great tragedies that have struck me recently have been enough to reduce me to useless at the worst of times but while I wouldn't blame him, he has stuck by my side throughout.

And hey, we might not do sweet and tender just like everyone else but we do it when we need to. We just don't share it with you nosy bastards :p

Anyways, all jokes aside, thank you Leo, Sir, Master of mine for sticking with me through all of this shit, words can't express what that means to me. Te quiero mas profundo que el mar... Gracias por protegerme

At a word that I wouldst sink to my knees,
Just to pay for the privilege of begging you please.
And how you would laugh and proceed to tease,
Telling me that I do not and will never appease.

At your whim do I stop and freeze,
Because I'm the lock and you hold the keys.
Beneath your grip does my body seize,
And every nerve ending simply agrees.

And for all of it; I wouldn't ask you to ease,
You're the one I never wish to displease.
Maybe the best things still come in threes.
I hear the word and now I sink to my knees...

~ For Leopald (and partially FM too if she notes the line) ~

I know I am a paranoid, high maintenance, borderline nymphomaniac and a selfish submissive...but if anyone ever had the chance to control me and the right to own me? Then you do Sir :kiss:

Estoy solamente tuyo...play partners come and go and they're great and fun...but I am glad to have somewhere to turn to when it really counts. I prefer you above all others...I hope you know all this but if you didn't, you do now.

And that's what I've learned for this week...I'm happy to have such wonderful and helpful friends here that are far more real to me than most of my RL friends. I'd not trade them or give them up for the world.

Things I've learned--

It doesn't feel like Friday.
Living by myself is far preferable to living with other people (though it were someone I were dating, I wouldn't mind, I don't think)
 
...that some people will continue to disappoint me.
...that others will continue to amaze me
...that I have to let people love me in the ways that matter to them, even if they don't matter to me
...that I can try to do the right thing and still get brushed aside.
...that I can matter to people and be good for them, beyond what I might realize

Its been a good week.
