I want to know why everyone thinks it's their damn business to but into your life and know every detail. Seriously, if I wanted you to know, wouldn't I tell you? Sometimes I understand when it's your best friend and they've got that grin on their face as they go "Nooo, I'm not telling you" Because you know they're BS-ing and they really want to tell you exactly what happened. But to the people who come up and ask "Oh my god, is it true you're going out with so-and-so?!" Come on, how second grade is that? I was just randomly thinking about that today and it really bugs me. How many times has it happened to? This year I've been accused of going out with exes, a best guy friend, and a couple other guy friends by people I don't like to associate with in the first place. That's how friendships end, you know. It definatly really screws things up when your best guy friend thinks you're inlove with him. Luckilly, that's over. What brought this entry on? Well, last night someone who shall remain nameless started bugging Steph about what she did that evening and if this guy had come to see her at my house, and then they started asking about me. *pulls hair out* Why do you care if we're not even friends?! Honestly, Stephanie just Xed out of the conversation as they continued pestering her about what she'd done that evening and I'm like. "Steph, why'd you do that?" and she's like "Because they don't really care" And it's true- people don't really care about your family situation, your emotional situation, or your relationship with a significant other. They just care about something to gossip about and occupy their minds (true friends excluded from this statement) I was talking to Rachel today about a similar situation and she's like "It seems like people only want to hear what they want to hear, and if they don't like your answer they'll just invent their own anyway so in the end it's inevitable" Sometimes she is pretty enlightening, that Roo. But yes, my point is, if you're actually interested and think you have the honor of being close to someone, first off, keep whatever is said between you two to the grave unless it endangers another party or the person's own life (And the girl I'm talking about who probably saved one of her best friend's lives because of this knows I'm talking about her. I heart you and you did do the right thing.) But yes, for one thing it should stay between you and for another, really listen and don't make up the answer you think was better because it sounds so much fancier when repeated saying "So-and-so got it up the ass and then her boyfriend splooged in his own face afterwards" Yes, I've heard that one last year. And yes, it was about me. That hurts and the people that start things like that are the innocent ones coming up to you and just asking how you're doing in the beggining. I swear, it's insane. So really, the moral of the story is, MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS!!! ♥ yas, Dani
