Hi everyone. I seem to have a slight problem. I collect all kinds of things. I have just recently bought a new phone.. and Nokia 8310, which cost me around £150. It seems strange since I have a £400 Nokia 8850. I don't know why I keep buying new things. I think it is something to do with the "boys toys" syndrome. But, I end up thinking.... "Why the hell do I want this, and why did I bloody buy it?!". Like I bought a £350 Handspring Visor Edge, which looks great, but I have used it once. So many things I think look nice so I spend hundreds of pounds buying it, for no apparent reason. I think I have gone mad. That is about the jist of it. And also bloody Pip hasn;t spoken to me for ages (and so I really am going mad).. and he is meant to be coming over for Easter. He says he is ill, and is going to bed really early and stuff, but I get these bouts of paronoia... ahhhhhhh!!!!!!!! Hopefully I'll speak to him soon.... not on my new mobile, because I (stupidly agreed to) pay for it and all the calls & line rental... whoops. What a silly mistake, my Papa usually pays for my things... but I guess I am "growing more independant" (what a laugh), so there we go. Anyway. Yes. Basically I think my need to talk on this message board today is Pip. He is causing me so much pain not being able to talk to him, because when I ring him, he doesn't answer. Either he is asleep, too ill, in assembely, or some other such shit. Which I think is driving me to distraction. I have my ICQ in work checking my POP3 email every 1 minute, so to see whether I have an email from him, but for the last 4 days I haven't had one. It is what I look forward to when I am working. The last one read something like "I am really ill, and am going to bed at 8pm, and really sorry not to talk, take care, Pip." but that was a while ago. And I am like worrying and missing him... so I don't know what to do. I just get the feeling he sort of knows that I (try to) phone him every night, and want to speak to him, and that he can't be bothered, and just ignores it. I am sure he does sometimes do that. THat I don't mind, but if he constantly does it, I really don't understand why?! When he sees me, like when we aRE ata party togehter, he is like a giddy school girl when he sees me. He is so excited, and happy. It is AMAZING. But he seem so fucking damned buggering "cool" when I try to contact him/phone him.. It drives me nuts!!!

I'm not really sure what to do. I need to contact him regarding him coming over in the holidays.... but he won't fucking answer his phone, or respond to my emails or text messages. It is bloody infuriating!!!

Anyway, have a good night all of you out there. I really needed to get this off my chest!

Dan.

That email was probably meant to be about Pip, rather than my obsessive compulsive buying habits...!
Maybe a Get Well card or something? Might make him feel guilty  [message #1567 is a reply to message #1566] Thu, 21 March 2002 22:29 Go to previous messageGo to next message

if he isn't being truly honest.

Have you had a heart-to-heart to tell him how you feel? Maybe he's too unsure of himself or feels too pressured and doesn't know how to react? Maybe a note to say "Please call me when you can, I really miss just chatting" or somesuch - something low-key - then leave then next move to him?

Maybe I'm an idiot, too! Oh well, take care!

Yes, well finally. Just spoke to Pip, he is driving to pick up his elder sister from the train station. Will phone him back in a min. It is amazing how I can forgive him anything, just by hearing his voice. Pathetic or what?! Anyway, so yeah. That's cool. Also, if I ever start ranting on about Pip on this message board - you people must know, I might have had too much to drink (= volcanic eruption of emotions). So you need to give me a hard slap, and tell me to shut up.

Thanks,

Dan.
