I have such a bad headache right now. I just cried far too hard. Two wrongs don’t make a right, I’ve learned. No matter how many shitty things someone can do you to you, doing one back doesn’t make you feel any better in the long run. I know there were reasons for what I did and at the time (and even looking back) it seems like the best solution. I was in an unhappy situation and did the only thing I could think of. It worked, but now I’m really upset about it. I apologized and now hopefully I can be on my way, back to thinking about current problems, such as running a club and being in a long distance relationship. I’m still in the upset state so I still have to write about it. It’s stupid. I don’t really know. Whatever, that’s it.
“The (500) Days of Summer attitude of “He wants you so bad” seems attractive to some women and men, especially younger ones, but I would encourage anyone who has a crush on my character to watch it again and examine how selfish he is. He develops a mildly delusional obsession over a girl onto whom he projects all these fantasies. He thinks she’ll give his life meaning because he doesn’t care about much else going on in his life. A lot of boys and girls think their lives will have meaning if they find a partner who wants nothing else in life but them. That’s not healthy. That’s falling in love with the idea of a person, not the actual person.”
