I like to pretend that nothing matters. But it hurts. So then I try to care about everything. And I get hurt. I don't know if I can be myself or not. The only people that seem to take me as who I am... Use me for what they want. And then there's some who like me for me. But they still want me to change. Typical. I would change a lot of things about a lot of people. If I could. I'm not mad at anyone. I hold no grudges. And whatever it takes to stay out of an arguement... I'll do it. I hate to fight. But I hate to act like everything's ok. Because then reality becomes denial. And I feel sick. This isn't for anyone inparticular. In fact, it's for no one at all. Sometimes I just try to convince myself of things. Although I'm not quite sure what point I'm trying to make. Not that it matters. If there's one person on this earth who I tend to ignore the most... It's myself. |

The last one you should ignore is yourself, Emily, and your feelings. You've hit on some emotions many of us felt while growing up. Wish I could say it gets easier, but sometimes even adults in their twilight years feel like this. Hug yourself, and keep moving forward. |

you've described most everyone at one time or another. Follow your heart, and listen to some of the great advice you'll get here at PIP. I did and I am better for it. Thankfull too. Gumpy How is it that after your heart is ripped out, you feel so much? |
