I'm having a bad day

I’ve successfully gotten thru my biological clock ticking thing recently and focussed on enjoying my nephew who is absolutely amazing to watch grow. very recently I have reached a point with my best friend where I have come to a very final conclusion. Nothing bad happened but unfortunately I have had to say to myself that I can’t give myself over to her insecurities and feelings of superiority based on her continuous sob stories that invoke a need within me to protect her and yet she hasn’t a need to have these sob stories. She is not emotionally independent and that is now very clear to me. I played that part of saviour for too long. Today my brother (who has major issues with my dad due to his inability to accept responsibility for his own life) asked me to look after my nephew and drop all jobs I had on today in my business. He persuaded me because I missed my nephew and haven’t seen him in weeks. I managed to change appointments and got excited at the prospect of seeing him and then my brother left me waiting to tell me when to pick him up. In the end my brother cancelled but I was still supposed to look after him later in the evening which subsequently got cancelled too. So now I’m wallowing in self pity out of disappointment and the fact I allowed myself to get so disappointed by the whole thing and now am thinking about the issues my dad has with my brother and my other brother leaving soon to go to Canada to live forever and the end of a friendship and I just feel so down tonight about everything, my friend, my nephew, my dad and my brother.

I’m just a tad emotional tonight but I wanted share is all.

thanks for readin'

I feel you.

I'm beginning to understand the need for community support. But I also can see how such negative relationships with people can sabotage the benefits of that kind of support. Propelling individuals into individualistic, narcissistic life styles.

I first read this as "I'm having a babby"

Then I felt disappointed that it wasn't from me. Then I remembered that you wanted one and went go Eco! But then I realized you aren't in relationship with anyone and I felt sad.

Then I read the title of the thread again and felt relieved :) So many emotions at one misconception

Anyway, don't let the douchbeags drag you down, that's all their problems to deal with and not yours. I try to ignore issues like these when they happen. Lately I just feel more angry than sad when people try to drag me down. You see how quickly people stop unloading their problems on you when you put them back in their place.

I'm sorry eco. I'm having a bad day, too. Too bad you live so far away... we could go out and drown our sorrows!

5 pounds of ice-cream will save the day!
To the ice cream truck!
