Yeah, I know my problems might seem inconsequentially small compaired to others here. BUT, I am annoyed. I have been dying to speak to Pip, haven't chatted since Saturday. And I was going to phone him monday, but (stupid me) decided to be polite and text message him first saying "Is it okay for me to phone this evening, are you busy?". Got a response "I have to phone my parents and things. Tomorrow definatly. Take care, Pip". Which I thought, fine, okay, understandable. Little bit annoyed because I seem to fall in love even more (if that's possible) every time I bloody speak to him. SO, tonight I was just sending him a text, telling him I was going to call in an hour or so, so there was no way of avoiding it... ha ha, but oh no. Plan failed again. Just (literally) seconds after sending the text, I recieved an email which he had sent earlier...

"hello matey, it is the feast of st gregory today. Have just finished a supposedly nice supper. have also just been with the headmaster, for port for the last 1 and half hours. the bar opens at 9.45pm so i have a distinct feeling that i will be fucked by 10.30pm. am in so much trouble for not catching up on work. have only got 3 essays to do now though, by last monday.
oh well, i havent smoked since sunday so ill just get trashed.
hope that your feeling alright.
take care, and will speak tomorrow. pip"

Right. Well, fine. He may say he has lots of work to do. But getting drunk with the fucking headmaster, and the fucking school bar. Jeez, PRIORITIES BOY! Ahhhhh, I say, that does feel SO much better getting that off my chest. It's just really annoying, he's forever saying how sorry he is for not calling his friends, and stuff, which in turn makes me feel sorry for poor pip. But really. I know he doesn't know how much it means for me to be able to talk to him. But at the same time, he has told me that he has never has such a good friend as me before.

So, in the end, I just sent him and email telling him to have a good night, and that I would have liked to talk to him. Which bloody means I am going to get a bloody email from him telling me how bloody sorry his is, because he has so much work to catch up on. It's such a fucking catch fucking twenty two!

Anyway, so now, I am feeling a wee bit better. And I just can't wait till easter, because it means that Pip is coming over to stay the night, in my house all alone, and the rest of the family are going skiing. Woo Hoo! At least then I might get to talk to him.

Right, well. If anyone read all that moaning, I'd be suprised. So thanks if you did.

See you all.

Dan.

Not trivializing your feelings, man. Just stating a fact. Smile

Even though you may think others have a harder time than you does not make your thoughts any less important, any less valid.

Sharing is important. We all have a right to do it, especially at this place... So don't apologize, there's no reason for it.


Talking's important, we all know that. You say he doesn't know how important talking to him is to you. Maybe you should tell him? If you don't want to come out to him, there's ways of saying it without doing so.

Then again, there's people that just can't seem to keep in touch properly. They might not do it intentionally, and most likely don't do it intentionally either, they're just not very good at it. Like the friend I said goodbye to this very evening. We just have to accept that's how these people are and deal with it, one way or another. (Not saying that this is how Pip is, of course; I don't know him.)



Anyway, thanks for the pics. Meaning no disrespect towards your friend, but if that's you in the red jacket there in the first pic, I actually think you're cuter. Smile Hope you don't mind me saying so.

The snag is that he's at school with his mates there, and you're a long way away. And if his mates say, come for a drink, then that's what he'll do. After all, to him you're just a friend. Not a 'special' friend.

You could try telling him. If he tells you to get lost, is that any worse than the present? [that's rhetorical]
Don't be pissed off...... Call him... If you think  [message #1410 is a reply to message #1406] Wed, 13 March 2002 01:32 Go to previous messageGo to next message

you need permission then call him... If you think it is too late then by all means call him...... if he thinks it is too late then call him..... if he gets trashed with the HM then call him...

If he cares for you he will be pleased you called.....



Life is great for me... Most of the time... But then I meet people online... Very few are real friends... Many say they are but know nothing of what it means... Some say they are, but are so shallow...

Yeah, I am happy again! Got 2 emails from Pip today. First one saying how some local plebs had smashed his front windscreen, and broken his aerial, which I have to say is a shame, and I do feel sorry for him. The second says:
"if you have free minutes at 8 pm can you call me then because i need to phone my mother about insurance etc. sorry to be the demanding one!!!
yes, well, speak to you soon then sunshine! pip"

So, there we go. Will be phoning him in half an hour. Anyway. glad to see that Tim is back! HELLO TIM!

See you all later.

Dan.
