Would you like to join my pity party?

[Mr. Bloom]

While we're "pulling for you" in cyber-land, please take note of the next five GOOD things that happen and post them here for us. That way, we'll know this brief spell has passes.

Well, from someone who just gave Missouri's MAP tests, how ridiculous is it that your tests aren't clear enough for a good student? Seems like you should make a complaint about that. Sounds like a huge flaw to me. Actually, I have yet to see one of these tests that doesn't have a problem or two. You certainly sounded like you proctored it fine. I'd ask around, see if this isn't a problem elsewhere in the state.

As for the BF? You said "My boyfriend hurts my feelings and now won't talk to me He hurts YOU and somehow it's YOUR fault? I know it's one sentence, and I don't have the full story, but this scares me for you. I'd go talk to someone, friend, relative and get their slant on things. Go to the library, search the web, tons of stuff on relationships and you can learn so much about yourself. This seems like a huge red flag to me. If you like, PM me and I can steer you to some books and sites.

I'll be thinking of you and hope today is better.

signed,

been there, done that, both times.

Take care

Uforgot - thanks for the words of encouragement. Let me clarify this statement:

You said "My boyfriend hurts my feelings and now won't talk to me

He does not hurt my feelings on a regular basis - he hurt my feelings on Sunday -I did not catch the typo in my post. I certainly did not mean to make him out as some bad, uncaring person for he is not. We (he and I) are both under a lot of pressure at the moment and what happened Sunday hit me hard. Life goes on, we will mend this fence I know. I know there is no perfect relationship out there, there are bumps in every relationship just as there are many smooth spots. We simply hit a little "hiccup" in the path. Things will be fine - Add to this a mild PMS trip and well little things become magnified. Again, I know things will get better. I'm still smiling just having a rough week.

Mr. S - I slept through the night and woke with a smile so there is my first good thing. Now it is off to school for yet another day of testing. I'm sure things will go better today.

Thanks again for your support guys I really do appreciate it. Help yourself to the refreshments and munchies (can't have a pity party without lots of good food and drinks).

I am sorry your week has been such a trying one. *hugs*

Boyfriend sounds immature. My husband used to do the silent treatment thing when we were young as a way to torture me in my opinion. We've learned that dragging a fight out for days is just dumb.
I just found out that my husband accidentally deleted my presentation for a 10 hour course I am teaching on Saturday. Hopping on board the pity party. Virtually impossible to get so much material back in a professional looking presentation in just a few days.

makbike-sometimes crap happens. I lost my job, but talked to one of my professors (who advises on city planning in a private company) and spread the word around to different places and companies what I was looking for. If I didn't lose the job, I don't know if I would have had this opportunity open up for me. The key is to sulk a little (it's ok to sit around in your comfy clothes, have some chocolate and watch a cheesy movie every once in while; it's good to ease down a bit). Then, when sulking is over, stand up and wipe the chocolate off of your face and face the day with regenerated strength and optimism and people will see that. Things will go your way, just gotta climb the mountains to get to the flat spots. In the meantime, I'm sending positive energy your way to help push this week on by to start anew. As for BF, I don't know the scenario,but if he's reasonable and cares for you, he will come to his senses and speak to you and you two should work things out.

stacie-that stinks! But, look at it this way: try to recover as much info as possible. In the meantime, if you know that most is lost, work with it and try to use that to your advantage. I think most people respect others when they not only admit when something crappy happens but work with it. In the meanwhile, Im sending positive energy to you so that your project turns out ok!

Nice, Uforgot!

I know sometimes my BF says something that upsets me, and I in turn push EVERY button he has! I don't blame him for not wanting to talk to me. Had I not responded the way I did, he wouldn't have either. We have nice calm fights too, so I know he's really a good person. But when I end the conversation with "I don't want to talk to you anymore" who can blame him for taking me seriously? I know I need help, and I'm trying really hard, but when the PMS monster comes to town, it's 100 times worse!
