I expect too much.<br /><br />99 words - At my birthday, they all came and he didn't (he was invited.) The ex said he was working late. I later found out he didn't come because he didn't want to impinge on the night. That thought hadn't even occured to me. I suppose thats where my 'protecting him' theory comes from.Please Don't Eat With Your Mouth Openhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09246896544080806179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30034378.post-33782793158746970392009-09-28T21:25:41.565+01:002009-09-28T21:25:41.565+01:00Two hundred words and then you say this right at t...Two hundred words and then you say this right at the end...<br />"Maybe it's not me they're protecting any more. Maybe it's him."<br /><br />You may have hit the nail on the head there. It's either that or they're trying to protect your feelings, albeit mistakenly.<br />Whichever it is - does it matter?<br />If you invite everybody else but not him will it make a difference to anybody? Will some people not come that you want to come out of some loyalty to him? If so invite him and if he doesn't want to come that's his call, theirs too.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30034378.post-75910115795779382292009-09-28T20:47:35.731+01:002009-09-28T20:47:35.731+01:00Errrrgggg.

To...unbearable - I have to disagree with you there. To me, caring is listening to your friend when she tells you she's fine and treating her as such. I'm not made of glass. Say they invite me to something that he's going to, and I say no. That would mean they would have to also not go to the event, out of loyalty. To avoid being in this situation, they just don't ask me along - or make sure I'm not going in the first place. That's how I see it.<br /><br />roseski - Surely the upsetting situation would have been 5 months ago, not now? Like I said, they know I'm ok about things now. All I want is a bit of honesty.<br /><br />smidge - Thats along the lines of my thoughts. I'm going to bring it up at some point, its just finding a way to express myself without contradicting myself.Please Don't Eat With Your Mouth Openhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09246896544080806179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30034378.post-59472178072390016542009-09-28T19:56:23.324+01:002009-09-28T19:56:23.324+01:00Weird.

But at the same time, I suppose it would have been nicer of them to have just been honest with you. <br /><br />(Coincidentally I'm in a pissy mood and have just cranked Spotify up - loud)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30034378.post-7422062218875130762009-09-28T17:33:04.677+01:002009-09-28T17:33:04.677+01:00Your friends are being your friends.
