Every. Time. you find yourself obsessing know that what you REALLY want is NOT breaking your moral code, or acquiring a memory that will follow you for a very long time (believe me, I know whereof I speak).
{{{bonny}}} back at'cha, sister.
I know that. I thought I was better than this feeling, than having it. I cope well, but it's driving me crazy within. I'll never, ever choose my own happiness at others' expense. I just wish this whole tense... wouldn't be here. I have better, other things to waste my time and energy on. We get along good. Appreciate each other's limited company. Leaving it at that, and keeping at least a meter away from each other at all times. And I do want more in terms of strictly friendship from him. But right now, I won't take the chance. And everything about it is and was hard: from first admitting it to myself, then to my friends, avoiding his company in non-sexual-manner, driving myself crazy for hours after seeing him for 5 minutes.
I want to believe I'll never do that to another person. But I believed that my hormones would know better than to crush on a Wrong Man (might be worth to mention it again: not in love. Just physical, just a crush, which I can tell from the friendship we have. And argh, I'm still deeply ashamed for feeling it). So I'm not taking that "let's get to know each other better" chance.
Have you ever seen My So-Called Life?
Funny you should ask. I adore it. Actually, it's the reason why I (re)discovered Buffy in the first place: the channel Buffy was on had MSCL before it, and sometime my parents taped it as well.
Thank you for all of your support, people. Again, I love you.
