I'm alright.

I am in a hotel room somewhere I can't pronounce. I am about a day away from where I live and I feel good. I guess you can always feel good when you drive away from the problem. I still havent told Selene and Chaz. But you'll be happy to know that I did talk to someone even if it wasn't face to face. It was on the phone. I talked to a friend that lives a few states over and I'm headed to him now.

 

Selene has called atleast twenty times I knew she'd call. Chaz hasn't yet but that is because of what I asked him. I'll tell them when I get back sometime next week. Julio has no called however. I was going to call him but my concious doesn't let me do it. I guess sometimes you have to remove yourself from the problem all together like I'm doing. I must admit that it's not going to help me when I get back but right now it really is.

 

I also called my friend's David and Rob, they are going to meet me here tomorrow and were going to drive somewhere I just don't know where yet. I guess I'm still not telling Selene and Chaz because they know too much. They've seen it all and they know how I feel about everything that happens to me. I guess they are too close to home. David and Rob I barely see and I know because of this they will give me an outsiders point of view.

 

I also called my friend Jonathan and he told me that things will always change but you have to be willing to adapt and that way you can be fine and he offered to go to spain and deal with Julio for me. He also told me to hang in there it isn't the first breakup and it wont be the last. He said that atleast this one was mild compared to my last.

 

So I leave you guys. I am alright a bit sad but I know I will make through. Oh by the way Libbonobo I only started to say Julio's name when he said it was alright. Count how many times I mention my bf LOL.

 

GREEN one day away.

Green, you are already on your way to recovery..good for you!

 

It will work its way out and things happen for a reason (so I keep being told) and things will work out for a reason..of course, when you are in emotional pain and hurt, that is the last thing one wants to hear..but I believe you will be ok..you are a strong good person and your values and ethics will carry you through the pain out of the darkness into the light....your friends have given you good advice.....and an outsider's view will be helpful.

 

Hang in there and Hugs and good thoughts and Good Karma sent your way.

Green,

 

Not much to say here really except that I'm sorry you are going through this and that I'm glad that you are talking to someone because that is an important step. Feel better soon okay...

 

Hugs, Viv

Hey Green ... glad you are doing better. Just be ready to deal with some really pissed off friends when you get back, but hey, that's their problem, you have to do what is best for you. As long as you stay safe, take whatever time you need away from 'life' so that you can come back to 'life' and face the realities that are still there.

Hmm, meant that to be a bit more encouraging

But as far as counting the mentions of "bf"--that's probably something you should do yourself. You may be surprised. There are only 31 more mentions of Julio as "bf" or "boyfriend" (not counting occurrences in the phrase "my bf Julio", which were mentions already counted under "Julio"). Which still only makes it Julio 48, Chaz 78.

 

But it's not only a matter of numbers; there's an issue of quality as well. What you say about Chaz is uniformly flattering or sympathetic. He's physically hot; he's got a nice family; he's just coming out of the closet, and you cry with him; he cries with you over music; he deals with loud music on the train deftly and gracefully even while sleepy; he's your ever-present sidekick through one misadventure after another, e.g., he's the one you took to your family reunion, and bonded with during that little fiasco....

 

Julio? Not described nearly so glowingly. There's no physical description of Julio; don't know how old he is, what he does for a living, and nothing about his family; he gets drunk, vomits all over you, makes a horrible smell, and is an embarrassment to you; he's jealous and possessive, and seems to have a propensity to physical violence; even when he tries to be nice and cook a meal for you, you don't want it because he screws up and makes things burn...

 

I have no knowledge of your real life, but I do have knowledge of your blog. And at least in your blog, Julio clearly comes in as a distant second, both in terms of amount of attention, and the quality of that attention. Clearly, things might be different in real life, which has many more dimensions than the written word. At the same time, it is said that the mouth speaks from the overflow of the heart; what you choose to write about and how you choose to say it reflects what you think is important.

 

I don't say these things to hurt you or blame you. I'm trying to be helpful, to make you think. Pain can actually be useful if you learn something from it. If I am totally off base about the lesson to be learned, then forgive me. Still, something went wrong, and it would be worth it to try to learn what. NOT for the purpose of laying blame, but to learn to avoid it in the future, or maybe even to fix it.

I agree, lib. Chaz is an angel, and Julio is a human. I've always liked Chaz better, but that's because I never trust anyone named "Julio". I remember being a six-year-old, and my mom had a friend named Julio whom she tried to introduce me to. Usually I was good with adults, but with him, I refused to look at him and cried when my mom tried to make me talk to him. I was a weird six-year-old. Now, this is all just to tell you to hang in there, Green, for better days are coming. I know it for a fact.

Hmm ...

 

I think "Julio" is a fine and proper name. A great name in fact :) . Perhaps there were just some bad people described here, regardless of the cool name.
