Friday!

It's been a long time since I did this, so I have no idea whether it will still work, but it is FRIDAY and so how about some anonymous comments?

Friends! Let it all out! Share your scandal, your angst, your exciting news! Tell the internet who you fancy! Tell us what you dreamed about last night, what you had for breakfast this morning, what you think of the new coalition Cabinet (if you're British), how sick you are of hearing about the UK election (if you're not).

Please do not be unpleasant about anyone who is likely to read this, or I will magically come through the internet and smack you.

OK GO. Hopefully I will not be left alone with the Japanese spammer...

Oh anon, I really feel for you. It sounds like you really need to break off contact for a little while at least, because this must really be messing with your head.

You're right, and I try. And then she contacts me, and the cycle of elation>misery begins again. I feel such a fool.

This may seen extreme, but block her from your phone? It may be unintentional, but she is being horribly cruel to you. No matter what she's going through, you can't be expected to be her support network.

You're not a fool; you're reacting in a totally reasonable way to someone who is behaving unfairly.

Wise words.

Once upon a time I embarked on a thing with a friend who also turned out to be having some form of breakdown while I was on the verge of one. It could have been brilliant, but I couldn't risk my mental health for hers so cut contact for a while. We never happened but we both got lots saner and happier faster when we stopped flailing in the are we aren't we mire.
