But? There's always a but. When this is over, can we have a big 'but' moratorium?

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I'm having some sort of technical problem that keeps eating my heartfelt post. Feh.

Aims, it is hard to lose a friend who isn't even the friend she was when you became friends. (I think I said that right). But regardless, standing up for yourself and surrounding yourself with good people is fantastic.

So, CJ is home. And pissed that I touched anything in his room. Yes, I respect your space but it has been months of me asking you to clean it and you ditched out on it when I wasn't home. Your welcome for all the clean laundry. Oh, and I'm the parent, you are the kid. Live with it.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I spent a lot of money on therapy to discover that I lacked the skill of setting boundaries. And then I spent even more money learning how to set them. And even though Joe was the one who set them in this scenario, I'm still gonna call it a personal victory.

Also, saying "I'm ignoring you" means she is unclear on the concept.

Aw Empress, that's rough. I very recently had a very similar absolute end to a friendship. It was only five years (weird to say "only" about any friendship). And its hard.

MFNLaw had a front row seat for the final ugly year. It's been helpful having someone who sees it had become untenable, who can hardly believe there was ever a good part. When the hard parts come -- which so far mean mutual friends and activities -- her reminders that I did the right thing help me through.

I'm sorry the friendship reached a point where it needed ending, Aimee. Even when they've turned toxic, it can be hard to do.

Aims, is this the same friend from the restaurant situation recently?

No - different friend.

...

Wow. I'm beginning to understand Joe's want to move away.

I don't know about moving, but you definitely deserve better friends. Thank goodness you have us.

Thank goodness, indeed!
