On occasion I will find a post that hits home. The following posts is one of those occasions:
If You Don’t Have the Balls to be Hated, Then You Don’t Deserve to be Loved
“Everyone has been playing nice-nice with each other. No one wants to accidentally offend anyone else. We’re all so open and accepting of everyone’s thoughts and feelings (Even the fucking dumb ones) and there are no stupid questions. We share. We encourage. We sugar coat. We are tactful and we are pleasant.
And after a day of this, we go home, make ourselves a cocktail and wonder why no one really knows us. We wonder why we never feel really close to our friends and we speculate on how it’s possible to live one third of our lives without bonding or connecting with anyone else. In the midst of so many superficial friendships, we are amazed by the fact that we can feel so alone.”

WOW !! so true and sad … You’re blog is thought provoking and real! Thank you for your honesty and your courage. I can really relate to many of your thoughts and feelings. Keep up the good work………..
p.s. Your link on the site that allows people to e-mail you isn’t working.
Thanks for your kind words Sharon. And for the tip on that email link!
I must admit I don’t play those games…which is why I don’t really have many friends…I have people ask me why I don’t have friends and well that is just it, I can’t make small talk, I can’t pretend I like someone I don’t , and I won’t listen to stupid empty conversations
I am alone most of the time but the friends I do have will last a long time
