While the title might suggest that I'm feeling happy and carefree, I am the opposite. I'm confused, annoyed, and a little bit pissed off.
I asked a friend what he thought of me a couple of days ago, and while what he replied was largely positive, one thing stuck in my mind, and remained there for me to mull it over and become steadily more furious.
"It's nice to talk to you and forget the world."
Ugh! I am so sick of people saying stuff along those lines to me! Why do they seem to think I'd ever take being compared to an anaesthetic as a compliment?? Yes, I struggle to deal with my own reality, how good do they think it makes me feel knowing I'm just a means of escape to them? Okay - at the end of the day, maybe I make them feel a little bit better, knowing they can "seek respite in me" or whatever, but then, once they're gone and there's just me on my own, then what do I do? I'm good for more than making people forget about the world

you know he could just have meant that being with you is a welcome release. That when he's around you none of the problems of the world seem to matter because he's got friends that make him heappy, and at that moment in time, thats all that seems to matter. No offense, but you should probably learn to take a compliment instead of trying to trick people by the words they use, it'll probably make you abit happier :P
