And layers. <br /><br />I know my cats miss me when I am gone (and usually spend the first twenty-four hours I'm back glued to my side) but they also sleep 18 hours a day, so in cat-brains, you aren't gone as long as it would seem to a human.Fluffycathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05428451230435663963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12942160.post-66632447653693536802011-03-08T10:05:45.835-05:002011-03-08T10:05:45.835-05:00Constance & Fluffycat - thanks for reading/com...Constance & Fluffycat - thanks for reading/commenting.

One thing I find interesting about the parent/child dynamic is that he probably could've used a lot more parenting around age 15, and that's the age he seems to regress back to when he's around my parents, even now - i.e. they want to know his whereabouts and plans and get suspicious of what he's doing, and he gets all secretive and defiant and does something to "act out" against them/society. <br /><br />Fluffycat - I know, it has been a bit easier to keep a distance emotionally when we've also been physically distant from each other. If he does stay in town though - I guess I'm afraid of having to confront the issue of "I'm not ready to have much contact with you now" - but like you said, it is important to my mental health/happiness to not get sucked into more dysfunction.Nervoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02281704723002922536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12942160.post-27683358679463972292010-11-12T17:54:16.510-05:002010-11-12T17:54:16.510-05:00Wow, that's really tough.

My brother is more of the over-achiever type, hard to imagine the thought of sending him money or whatnot.<br /><br />I think that it's perfectly fine to cut ties with anyone in your life who is super dysfunctional, relatives or not. I have scaled back a lot of communication with relatives on my dad's side about this, and am on the whole happier and mentally healthier since I've done that. Admittedly it's easier being geographically distant.Fluffycathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05428451230435663963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12942160.post-37319277186338351862010-11-11T17:19:41.339-05:002010-11-11T17:19:41.339-05:00I think the parent-child relationship is SO differ...I think the parent-child relationship is SO different from the sibling relationship, I definitely wouldn't wonder why it was your mom taking him in and not you, no matter the square footage. A parent is always a parent, and can go back into that role if the child needs more work.<br /><br />And if it helps, I never think that about families: I would think something more like "Can't society do something about that for the family's sake?" And I would feel sympathy for the family.Swistlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13126937282657655091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12942160.post-65829279562241486002010-08-20T19:10:40.073-04:002010-08-20T19:10:40.073-04:00I hate it when bosses can't even act like huma...I hate it when bosses can't even act like human beings.

Because I'm generally VERY PLEASED when someone hugs me (well except when it's "EXCUSE TO TOUCH GIRLS!!!") but I don't REACT in a way that seems pleased.<br /><br />My theory is that people generally LIKE it when someone else shows obvious signs of liking them, even if they're surprised by it. Good taste of that sort is admirable.Swistlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13126937282657655091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12942160.post-44833683172172415942010-06-17T19:21:53.867-04:002010-06-17T19:21:53.867-04:00Huh I might try a new template.

I think you tell yourself right here what it is: you FEEL this or that, but that doesn't mean it's REAL. Does that make sense? You DO need to start liking yourself a bit more, I think, and lighten up on yourself. Everybody fucks up, and it's rarely the end of the world, or anything else. People forget, people move on, life goes on. <br /><br />Look at me getting all philosophical here. I just knocked over a glass of wine all over my computer desk here, some shit got wet, and I wiped it up and no harm done. Is that a metaphor for something? (Seriously, I just did that.) Also, you can be very funny sometimes; that's always been a saving grace for me, even if I'm the only one who notices. <br /><br />~ PeggasusPeggasushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16430376275956260855noreply@blogger.com
