The Goat and The Junkie

No, it's alright. We've not really spoken about the breakup, nor about the relationship in general, since it happened. We agreed to give it a shot going back to remaining friends, hopefully as close as we were beforehand, though I don't know if we'll ever make it that far back. We are trying to at least remain friends, though, for now. Unless I decide it best to do as Scythe has offered as a suggestion and sever ties in order to spare myself the emotional trauma. Even if I go that far, I'll have to find a way to go about it that doesn't hurt her any. She may have left me, but... I haven't got it in me to hurt her, anyway. I mean, she's still my best friend.

I'm sorry about that situation, Jacc. It must be hard to decide what to do, I have no idea what I'd do in your shoes. I offer my wishes that you can somehow find the happiest solution to it all.

I appreciate it. I'm sure nothing I do will be easy in the beginning, but... as has been pointed out, all wounds, in good time, shall heal. And that's good enough for now, the knowledge that I can make it through, regardless of what comes of this all. The first week is always the hardest. I expect next week will be easier. Or at least I f*cking hope so.

Good luck, man. Keep me updated, if you can, I like knowing if my friends are okay and stuff.

I will do as possible. I'm not gonna be online any after tomorrow until 'round about Tuesday. Maybe Monday, if I'm lucky. We'll see. But either way, I'll keep everyone here updated as best I can.

Do what you feel is right.

I... want to feel this out and at least give it a shot. And if worse comes to worst, I can always back down at the last second... I think... I mean... It's like I said, she's always been my best friend... But at the same time, like you said, sometimes remaining in contact with someone you love when those feelings aren't shared is enough to push you over the brink... I guess... For my own peace of mind... I have to know if I can save the friendship... At the least...

Do what you believe is right Ripper, our roles aren't to tell you what to do, but to support your decisions and give you strength.

I... guess you're right, Scythe. I'm going for it, Hell, if it all goes wrong, at least I gave it a shot and attempted to save the friendship, right? And that's something I can look back on and be proud of no matter how it turns out.

*stretches and yawns* Jesus f*cking Christ, I'm back. Feels like I've been away forever, and it's only been a coupla weeks...

Heya

How's things, Scythe?

Things are good on my side. Working hard, but partying just as much. Haha. Hasn't been a dull day since.

Very good to hear. I've managed to resolve issues on my end, as well, so... I should be back to my old self, now... hopefully...

Ah, I see. What did you end up doing if I may ask? You can PM me if you don't wish to make anything public.

It's quite alright, I don't mind. We decided to give things a shot as they were before we got together, and for the time it seems to be working well. I'm moving on, out on the prowl looking for someone else (dear god, i just realized how horrible of me the wording of that sounds...) She's already moving on herself, and I have no doubts she'll be able to find someone as well. But... we're good... for now. It's kinda nice, honestly, to have her back around as just a friend. Looking back, about the time we got together, things started going to Hell for us, so... I'm glad we were able to preserve the friendship, even if only temporarily.

Enough on me, however. How are things for everyone here? By the way, Scythe, love the new sig and avvy.

Glad to hear you've moved on Jacc. Thanks, my sig and avvy are rather festive in a spidey sort of why. I like yours as well, I own FF 10-2, I thought it was pretty alright.

Thanks, as well. I actually don't much care for the avvy. I'm thinking of finding one with just Rikku, she's the only one that really relates to me in any manner... The sig just kinda... fell together...
