Wibbles

[lnr]

Mailed my mum and dad with the URL of this entry. Got a couple of longish replies back from my mum, which basically said she thought I deserved better and that it sounded like a fairly unequal sort of arrangement given it was initiated by Richard mostly, but that she was glad to know another factor about why I was feeling down and that if anything she'll worry less about me as a result. She does just want me to be happy. She thought my dad was likely to be angry, but he hasn't commented himself yet. Overall not too bad I think.

Bad timing Richard wanting to spend tonight with Vicky since I'm a bit wibbly, but it does mean I should get to see kitty_goth this evening as he is apparently visiting Cambridge. Must be more than 5 years since I saw him last I think, as I was still going out with damerell back then. Strange how time flies.

Bike puncture not fixed: decided I could pump it up enough to get into work and bring the pump with me and repeat on the way home. Slightly awkward given we only have a big track pump but it more or less fits in my rucksack with only a few inches sticking out the top. I'll fix it properly at the weekend. Blistered foot being a nuisance, but not too awful. Feeling knackered from two nights of not sleeping well. Work a bit unmotivated but probably just from the tiredness. If I just could have a bit more sleep I think I'd be feeling pretty dapper really.

If I understand correctly, you have now come out to your parents which you hadn't done before. Well done, you! That ought to make life a lot easier. *hugs*

Sleep well!

True, and not a bat of an eyelid about the fact I'm seeing a girl, just worries about the poly stuff. Which is a relief in its way, but not far off what I expected.

They're your parents; they're *meant* to worry about you. And having let them know may well help you feel better about it all. I hope it does! *hugs*

Say hi to kitty for me!

I don't want to worry them though, they've had to do it enough over the last few years, they could do with a break.

But thanks anywya, and I will.

I'm not sure it will make them worry more about you; if they know you're being really open about your lifestyle with them then they're also going to know that if things are going wrong that you'll let them know about it. Which probably takes away the biggest source of worry; that something's up but you can't or won't tell them about it.

Does that make any sense? I'm not at my most coherent right now, and may be spewing out incomprehensible and nonsensical wibble.

Yeah, it does make sense. And it's one of the reasons why I wanted to tell them anyway, but it had to be at the right time IYSWIM.

*hugs* That took a lot of guts to do. Well done.

It took a lot of courage to do what you have done. You should be very proud of yourself. *hugs*
