I don't know if it was just sleep deprivation last night or what but somehow we started talking about how he'd changed so much and how i just couldn't shake the idea that he was either a fake then or now but somewhere he turned phony. he laughed and said maybe it was just that i didn't know him as well as i thought. i felt tricked and betrayed. then he admitted that he was different before....explaining that i was the straw that broke the camels back. why do i always have to be that last fucking straw? why am i so good at not realizing how much i adore a person the way they are until ive fucked them up beyond recognition? why is it that the changes he says ive created in him seem so irreversable. why do they make me feel so hopeless. maybe god said no and i said why and he said alright then ill show you but you will regret not listening to my original answer.
at least im not on drugs tho.....as tho that's the worst thing i could do. sometimes i feel as though after what i did to him anything he does is perfectly and completely justified no matter how miserable it makes me....im lucky to have this chance and i should simply suck it up because i deserve it. but i miss the way it used to be so much and that makes me think that maybe i screwed things up to an extent that they will never be the same again and therefore im not lucky to have this chance im suffering merely as a consequence to my actions and its an optional consequence no less as im free to leave any time id like. i stay because i feel that i deserve this. and i still hang on to the hope that if we keep working itll get better no matter how weak i appear to him and how stubborn and insensitive he appears to me. i punish myself. what happens if i just say "yeah i fucked it up and it sucks and im sorry and i did want to be with you but not the way you are now....even though i caused you to be the way you are now.....im going to be selfish as you would be and simply say that this isn't making me anymore happy than being alone.....in fact i think im sadder this way and therefore....im done" would he feel slighted somehow? that i could realize everything id done and just walk away so introverted and uncaring. i dont think hes ever seen my particular form of self interest. and what would happen to him then? if im worried about it now does that mean id be worried about him then? if im so worried about him then why would i ever even fathom the idea of leaving. is it selfish for me to want to be happy even though i know the reason im not happy is my own fault. since i made this bed should i have to lie in it? or can i just get a new one? and what about all the ways hes changed me? he doesnt seem too concerned so does that let me off the hook a little? two wrongs dont make a right, but is it really wrong to put the past in the past and simply say....no matter how we got this way we are just too different now so i give up. and then will i go on the rest of my life wondering what might have happened had i not given up so easily? if i stay here.....in what seems to be a muddled rut.....i may come out disappointed because he may never be that person again and it may just be a futile conquest in that sense. however, if i say good luck to it and walk away i may spend the rest of my life regretting it based on the notion that sticking it out could have proved fruitful if i simply hadnt whimped out at the first sign of discomfort which is what i always do. im so confused. i dont know what i want. and what of the rainy days when hes all i need and the laughing and murdering cupcakes on the grounds of jealous rage. what about pulp fiction and butterflies and halloween and the nights when it wasnt just "get naked lets fuck" i dont know where this entry was going....guess maybe i was just trying to sort things out. like if i could look at it it would make more sense. but im still lost. if you read this far, then you know what its like inside my mind.
"baby say something nice to me"
"im not romantic like that"
"you used to be...what happened"
"i dont have time for fun and games anymore"
"what do you mean by fun and games"
"whispering shit in your ear and laughing and playing and all that romantic stuff ... too much fun and i dont have time for it now...i have to work and stay focused and get shit done"
"all i asked was for you to say something nice to me....is there no time for that either"
"im tired"
"oh"
