"The art of being yourself at your best is the art of unfolding your personality into the person you want to be. . . . Be gentle with yourself, learn to love yourself, to forgive yourself, for only as we have the right attitude toward ourselves can we have the right attitude toward others."~ Wilfred Peterson

rambling
I need to clear the head a bit and well writing is as good an option
as any. I keep thinking about my coworker, who tells me she loves me
and gives me loads of hugs, and lets me talk and listens and all of
this. she has told me things about her life and things that have
happened and why she cares for me and my wellbeing and why she is
worried about me. I keep trying to tell her that I am fine and that im
okay and managing. Still she tells me that she worries and she figured
out the cutting herself, the first day she met me at work. She has a
family member that did it and so she knew. I couldnt figure out what
she was hinting at when she talked to me at the beginning of the
week..but by friday i needed her to spell it out for me. i needed her
to say what it was and to hear how she figured it out. i also told the
dumbest lie ever about being clumsy and falling alot ..and she listened
and then told me to stop lying to her. i worry when she says that she is
worried about me harming myself..i worry that if i take what she is
offering that i will overwhelm her..that i will run her away..that she
will come to hate me..that i will be to much to deal with. a lot of
fears popping up..and all of this happens after i mention needing
help..i keep thinking that also..i have talked to her mom who told me to
hang in there...ive talked to her daughter who has dealt with suicidal
feelings and things and she told me to be strong. . people i have never
met..who seem to care about me and im the dork questioning why..maybe im
just afraid to accept it..to allow myself to really just take it for
what it is..to be loved and cared for..the most innocent of
conversations has created an avalanche of care and it is a little
overwhelming maybe. i want it. gosh i want it but i am afraid. what if
she wants something from me? what if she is not trustworthy or hurts
me or hates me? so many what -ifs..and i hate what-ifs. i drive myself
crazy with what ifs ..she invited me and sarah to the fair..all week i
avoided giving her an answer..she husband worked on my car for me
today.. and so i asked sarah and we ended up going...and it was fun..i
was a bit jealous because i wanted my friend to myself and had to share
her with her friends and sarah and her step daughter...but she did take
time out to check in with me and give me hugs .. i want to be around her
and of course only her ..and i cant help but think about some things t
has said to me about my behaviors when it comes to me getting attached
and how i want all or nothing..there is no inbetween and something about
making them pay for caring for me...hmm i think im getting the wording
wrong on that one..but its like i take what they offer and then demand
more..or become manipulative in ways to get more attention and
stuff..and its like im a leech and im just sucking the person
dry..because i dont accept what they are giving for what it is..does
that make sense? hmmm .. i dont want to be a leech but i can tell the
attachment is trying to form..and i can tell that i want all of her
attention..but i dont want her to feel sorry for me..i want more than i
can give..and im not entirely sure that is fair..i dont know how to have
that equal give and take in a friend relationship..and of course i push
these types of relationships into parent mode..or i try to ..and then i
become overwhelming and needy..well im already those things but now it
is being directed at someone outside of me..and things become a bit
murky..blah...but ok.. umm yeah went to the fair...and ate french fries
and funnel cake (not all of it) and ate steak on a stick ! lol that
amuses me so very much it seems..played a couple games and won a
questionable mammal? i thought it was a parrot...it is not a parrot !
but it has no arms and its bring yellow and just umm a little weird .
and i got some chicken tenders that went from one side of the paro to
the other with me and then walked all the way to the car with me and
then drove to the candy store with me and then drove home and switched
cars and arrived at home in a bucket so i can eat them :D
the chicken tenders have truly experienced life today hehe. but i am
worn out..majorly..we have been out ALL day! im gonna lay here and keep
thinking about my chicken tenders it seems. i like chicken tenders and
things on sticks it seems
