Re: Suicidal Tendencies
And, of course, I'm "adding you to my foes list", as the system now describes the action of putting somebody on ignore. I know as many narcissists as I care to.

Re: Suicidal Tendencies
But, on the other hand, given certain circumstances mentioned elsewhere and your attitudes about them, I suddenly find that I don't give a rat's ass about your problems, any more.

Re: The person below me
TPBM is finally pulling out of the funk that they've been feeling lately No, no funk. Nothing of significance has happened, lately, so I've had no reason to feel better or worse, though the yearly event does remind me of how trapped I am by my current circumstances. I am, however, not depressed by ...

I haven't heard from her in a long while. I text her and call her but she won't answer me back. Uh, oh. Bad sign. I love my friend and I miss her a lot. There's nothing I can do. Maybe there is.

Re: The person below me
TPBM knows how to love deeply, give unconditionally and forgive while being thankful for the lesson. No. I doubt that there ever really was such a thing as love, and have long since learned the foolishness of giving to those who've shown no appreciation, even if I am supposed to pretend to believe ...

Regardless of how hard or easy it is to do something, this is a do-acracy. In other words, your view is that the facts are beside the point.
