Being friends with your ex works great if neither of you ever really cared about the other.

Man, I get sick fairly rarely, but when I do it is very serious stuff. That said, I took a , mostly unnecessary, trip to the ER. Vomiting, diarrhea, body pain, the whole ball of wax. It was probably just really bad luck, and I felt it creeping up on me during the week but payed it no mind.
In related news, my Pa came home earlier than I expected. Just in time to take me to the ER.

PS. I have a feeling this prescription is going to make me susceptible to headaches.

Anything worth doin' is worth doin' well

I hope your prescription works Puck and you stay healthy. Going to the ER is no fun.

I'm ahead of schoolwork for the weekend. It's a nice feeling. I know it'll only last today since the next lesson starts tomorrow but still. Yay.

Yes. But ex or not, he broke my door last night. I'm not friends with someone who turns to violence, and that's final.





It's over. I'm moving out thursday.

He broke your door?! Stay safe Alice and good luck with finding a new place to live.

Alice: I second what Dragonwings said. You probably already know this, but you don't want to be in a violent living situation. It's not good for your mental or physical health. I hope you find a nice, cheap place to stay in. Or a friend's couch to crash on until things get better.

I've been looking around, and I've found an apartment complex with some cheap apartments. They're tiny and probably almost as shitty as they're cheap, but it's better than nothing. Now I'm just waiting for someone to move out so I can move in.
In the meantime, I'm patiently waiting for my ex to go somewhere for two or three hours, so I can move out my furniture and other belongings without having to worry about his reaction. I've also talked to a friend, and I know that I'm more than welcome to stay with him and his family.

Alice: That's terrible that it had to turn out that way, but it's good you're leaving. It's good you're getting out of there. The further away from the guy you are, the better.


It may be a good idea to give him as little information on where you're going when he asks, in fact it may be a good idea to avoid him as much as possible in the time being when you're forced to be in the same building as him.

Yeah that's a deal breaker alright.

Agreed. I've been in an abusive relationship too, as far as I'm concerned I draw the line at psychological or physical abuse. Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will send one to the hospital in a psychotic mental breakdown. If Either of these happen gtfo. Oh and yeah, males can be abused horribly too. Unfortunately society may just be waking up to that fact all too slowly.

As one who studies psychology and have been on the receiving end of mental abuse I agree that psychological abuse is a horrible thing and not something anyone should live with. I also hate how some will try to say mental abuse isn't abuse. Yes. It is. No abusive relationship is worth a person's time, effect, or tears.

Today started off not the best - first, some random girl on OK! Cupid ( a site I hardly use anymore) asks me if I'm a "parody of myself" and when I said basically, "What the hell? Who are you anyway??" she began about how she's a sadistic person that likes to tease "over-sensitive" people and that she's "just wicked." She also went on about in her paragraph about seeing if I was a "real" person or not.

Granted, the profile I made was a tad old and has a bit of a douchey, cliche flavour to it - but I kept thinking about things as they would be in the real world and that's actually helped me in dealing with her. She was ridiculous, and when I didn't give her more stuff to feed off of by simply writing, "Whatever" she I guess backed off.

The funny thing here is, I wrote no more then 4 lines to this girl, and she goes and writes me a paragraph explaining herself - and she did so in a way that again, seemed to be more of a lure than anything else.

At lunch, my mother makes a comment about how I should go out for a walk, and that I haven't done so in a few days now. There is nothing wrong with this, but her tone was a little suspect. I'd like to think it's a test to see if she can still control me. It's subtle, but I think it's there. My instincts tell me so (and knowing how my mother is).

Well... That is just strange on many levels.

I don't understand.

You were handed a perfect trolling opportunity on a plate and this is a bad thing? How?
