Caution: Mood swings ahead

[neverwhere]

Don't you hate being caught in the middle?

What do you do when people you really like are friends with someone who hates your guts?
How can you comprehend how someone who is your friend is also friends with someone who has openly stated their animosity towards you, but has never even spoken to you and knows nothing about you?

I'm sorry for babbling, I'm just feeling a bit depressed right now. I pride myself on being a genuinely nice person, friendly and cheerful with malice towards none, so I really don't understand how anyone can hate me, or how anyone who claims to be my friend can also be friends with my enemy. I don't even want them to be my enemy, they just are. Which makes me so sad.

Anyway.


I finally downloaded the Semagic client, and it's brilliant. Hurrah. :)

My CD sountrack of 'Once More, With Feeling' (the Buffy musical episode) arrived in the post this morning, and I just have one thing to say about it -- GOD BLESS JOSS WEDON! I can't believe what an amazing talent for writing lyrics he has, and he writes some cracking tunes as well. This is such an amazing soundtrack, I really hope there'll be more of musical Buffy in the future. If they can make Batman and even King Kong into a Broadway show, surely there is hope for a full all singing all dancing stage show of the Buffster and gang. *grins*

Sorry you're under so much stress, Nevviekins. But like we talked about once, you can't make everyone like you. There's always going to be one contrary soul out there.

When I was in middle school there was a girl that completely hated my guts, even though I never interacted with her at all. Heck, I didn't interact with hardly anyone back then, I was so shy. The really bizarre thing was she didn't even know why she hated me. She use to eat lunch with one of my sisters for awhile and just flat out told her that she hated my guts and didn't know why - she just did.

I suppose jealousy could have been a motive, since I hadn't done anything to her outside an occassional "hi". Or maybe I walked passed her without noticing - I made a habit back then to keep to myself and ignoring pretty much everyone if I could get away with it. So maybe that hurt her feelings, even though she knew it wasn't anything personal. There were other people who did make fun of her who she hated less, though.

In short, I will never know why she had such animosity towards me. I sometimes wonder if she ever figured it out.

I'm just so NICE dammit -- what's not to love about me? *laughs*
