I must say you certainly ran into a couple of odd people. :wacko
It's understandable that they want to know how your mom is doing but you're there too, I mean you are right there talking to them.
Do they really care or do they just ask about your mom because it's 'polite'?
Told to simply get over it? :disbelief Where do you live, kid? Lunatic Park? :banghead
This is one of the most stupid statements I've ever heard.
I feel for you girl, it's so hard to let your guard down when you learned the 'safe' thing to do is to keep emotions locked in.
Must be even harder if you're still around weirdos who think so.
I think all those people should really badly go see a shrink, preferably last year.
Well, you know if they don't care, or have so many problems of their own that they're emotionally burnt out, then you shouldn't waste your time with them. I can understand that sometimes people just can't handle hearing other people's troubles, happened to me too on occassion, that the help and support I was asked for was just more than I could handle.
Either way, they are in no state to or don't care to help you, so don't waste your energy on them. Really, I think you should move. But that aside there a couple of geeks here, 8o like myself, who are happy to at least lend an ear.
And I think, you should write, Ive heard from several sources that it's extremely therapeutic. Even if you never show it to anyone, it kinda flushes it out of your subconscious.
