Sometimes I don't bother quoting if I'm responding to the post directly before mine.

If I still had the administrative power, I'd edit in the quote myself. XP

First day in (Dodge City) High School, I asked my one good friend from that time how to get to my class. She tells me of a "shortcut" up the stairs behind me and that the class is only a short distance away from them. My class was actually on the other side of the building and several of the halls were identical in structure. So I spent about a half hour looking around for my class...

I do have a ? because I was late in the queue.
Do you forgive the friends who crossed over?
Do you think you'll ever trust people again?

I do have a ? because I was late in the queue. Do you forgive the friends who crossed over? Do you think you'll ever trust people again? That's fine, I bet everyone has a lot of questions about this matter. Do you forgive the friends who crossed over?Forgiving is not the same as forgetting. Yeah, I forgive them, but I don't grace them with my presence as often as before. One of them just came back from out of state, and I told her I hadn't contacted her because I was busy, which was partly true, but more importantly I just don't want to be near her anymore. I still care about them, but if they call me out on something they THINK I did wrong, it all comes back to me, and I give them a verbal beatdown they'll never be able to forget. Frankly, I don't think I need to take any shit from them after all the drama. And I don't. I vomit in their face instead. Not literally, but you know what I mean. I also don't oblige when they ask me to do their homework. I feign having other business to attend to. I will be there for them, but I don't love them. They're more like a chore to be around. But I feel like I have to. I don't trust them. I nearly died. My perspective has turned on its axis. That was unavoidable. I need to be more careful so that I can live on and care for my family for as long as they live. I will, however, always remember those who were somewhat there for me during dark times. Do you think you'll ever trust people again?From now on, those who I don't already respect & trust have a long way to go for my genuine trust. I will always have a watchful eye. Earn it or take a hike. Those I never once doubted turned on me. I'll deal. Y'all just be glad I didn't become a shut-in. Admittedly, though, I now go out a lot less despite the fact that I have much more freedom than I let on. Don't get me wrong, though. I'm not holding onto the drama. I just have a lot of baggage to get rid of. Lingering. But the worst of it has subsided - meaning the actual drama, being ostracized, knocked from my pedestal, etc. The memories themselves aren't very painful anymore.

I will be there for them, but I don't love them. They're more like a chore to be around. But I feel like I have to. I don't trust them. Ouch.That wasn't even directed at me,but it still stung. You know, until you can discern your feelings toward them, I don't think you should be around them at all. If they don't feel like friends to you, then just hang out with the ones you say you trust. (Aren't they still hanging out with her or something? They'll just continue being influenced) It's okay, Christy. They betrayed you once(at least once?), real friends don't do that. Let go of them if you have to. I want to see you happy again. You may have thought no one cared or noticed, but your academy brothers were really relieved you came out of that alive. None of us knew what was going on, but Michael nearly went insane when he saw the light leave your eyes. Wilson skipped class to come check on you at school, but you were never there when he asked around. He panicked when he found out you were no longer living at your house. Frankly, we all did, Christy. Then when you finally came around in late spring, we all breathed a sigh of relief. It's really great to have you back, you know. :')

Oh, great. So that's why Will failed half his classes. -_- He never once ditched class before that year. I thought he was on drugs or something! *flings hands up* I feel so sorry.... ><
I'm really touched. I don't know how else to prove this.
I'm just reeling from a lot.
I probably seem irrational here, but think about it. It had a lot of impact. It would've had a lot of impact on anybody.

it feels like a CHORE to be around them? just screw them and leave. i was about to ask why you still hang with them.
i think i Know what you're thinking. you're thinking it's harsh to up and leave them. but it was warranted. you were soft and you're still soft despite the hardened corners. THat's why you didn't go to the police about the blackmail and life threats.
just do yourself a favor and spend time with those who really truly love you. you don't owe those pricks a damn thing.
you need to start living again. stop spending time with people who constantly trigger a painful past.
i wish you luck, my friend.

You need to realize they're not your friends anymore. They just want you to do their homework.
It's your turn to stab them.

And I'm considered harsh?
It's not like it's anything surprising.
Let's just drop it. Now. Please. Thank you.
What are everyone's plans for summer?
