If I were a cat, I would be a… Snow Leopard! The Snow Leopard (Uncia uncia) is a gorgeous spotted feline with long fluffy fur who, as the name implies, calls the snowy regions of Asia its home. As a Snow Leopard, you are a very sentimental creature. You have certain friends, places, and routines that are special to you. You tend not to be loud or outgoing, preferring to sit back and observe life as it happens around you. |

Fed up of being fed up now. RJK being lovely. Doesn't make it go away though. It's OK to know I've got to give it time but how long? Even the electrician in the dept was asking if I was OK today, and I only know him to say hi in the corridor.
Update: Damn, and now I know he's back (posting to usenet) and I have new mail and I'm scared even to see who it's from never mind read it. I'm sick of a week of peering at phones wondering if he's going to say anything in response to a texted hug. I'm sick of feeling like I'm not allowed to miss him, but I do feel like it's unfair to expect anything of him when I'm the one who did the leaving in the fire swamp. Fed up of feeling guilty for loving someone and not being able to stop. Fed up of feeling so bad I can't work or sleep and I'm not convinced about eating. Fed up of the headaches and the stomach feeling sick too. Sick of keeping it all inside because I don't want to hurt anyone else. I don't want to hurt any more.

I'm really sorry if me whinging about lack of texts yesterday was just making things worse. FWIW he did say last night that he'd had really dodgy reception in Wales & he had to go outside every time he wanted to send a text. (Which would obviously be a bit awkward with family around all the time.) But if he hasn't emailed & told you that as well by now, then he wants a kicking.

You're allowed to miss him. It's not a question of "allowed". I doubt if there's any way you could stop missing him. And I certainly don't think it's unfair to expect him to keep in touch and reply to stuff, or at least to let you know when he's going to be out of touch.

I don't want you to keep any of it inside on my account. I mean that. I just wish there was something more I could do to ease the hurt. I know I'm probably the worst person to try to help you -- I feel like I'm making things worse just by existing -- but if you do want to come and cry on me at any point then give me a shout, you know where I am.

And it's not just you I don't want to hurt: but I do feel like it's not fair to dump things on you, especially if you're still worried about how much he cares about you. And you don't make things worse, you help lots. I might take you up on that last at some point, but not today, since I *am* feeling much better than I was.
