blather
i_owe_some_amends
perfectly_chaotic I have discovered why it is that I was so attached to you and allowed that impermanence to hurt me. You were the first woman I ever really cared for. All the rest before you did not matter to me.

Most of those women I either did not even like or was not attracted to. Many of the women I have slept with I downright loathed and despised. I had self-esteem issues which did not want me to feel alone. My sense of self-worth came from the act of sleeping with them or from dating them, but at the same time I hated them and felt I was too good for them. I was shallow and vain; I thought they were too fat, ugly or stupid. Otherwise I was simply using them to enable my myriad addictions.

You were the first who I genuinely cared for and liked. Naturally my self-esteem told me you were too good for me. Everything felt magical. The idea that you may have felt about me the way I felt about those other women was devastating. When that shiny, new glass feeling hit the floor and we shattered into shards I did not handle it well.

It seems like I have a fair amount of amends to make.

unhinged at first read, this blathe really creeped me out.


after his phone call and voicemail last week saying he wanted to make amends, knowing he knows about blather, and then those words that were almost too good to be true... shoulda_known they had nothing to do with me

but they are exactly what I wanted him to say, so I'm gonna pretend that you are him p_c and let those words you meant for some other girl heal my heart and let_it_all_go
