snodderly, that's one of the first things I started calling him on was talking in absolutes before the first BD. "Only a Sith deals in absolutes." At one point I told him that I understood that he needed to talk in absolutes, but he needed to understand that when he does so, I'm not receiving it as such. He thought that was fair enough. He got pretty annoyed at me when it came to questioning semantics, and it was all a matter of me just trying to understand him.
nero, that is funny! I do think it's easier to talk to people that don't know me or H. I don't want to be the source of gossip around the neighborhood or be totally uncomfortable if we get back together and thinking people are talking about us.
GG I don't know how many times I've played that song over and over now. I need to make a motivational playlist.
That too is my fear. What if he never comes out of this? What if the person who comes out is a selfish bastard? His Dad suffered a major depressive breakdown, likely his own MLC about 13 years ago, and he still has days where he just sits and stares out the window. I feel like H has more going for him in life and more to live for. H's dad doesn't work because of the D, and I think that likely keeps him more stuck than H would be. When H left, his dad when into a mini crisis, didn't eat for days, wouldn't talk to anyone. He is so mad at H. His father abandoned him, and he has never gotten over it. He is so upset that H has done the same thing.
