    Dear you,
    Maybe it's best that my circumstances and your circumstances mean that we can't be together now. Maybe if it happened too soon,before both of us are ready,we'd mess it up and it would burn out too quickly.
    I don't believe in fate,or karma,etc. And I would never ask you to wait for me to be ready. But whatever we have between us...and how we met...it feels like our lives and our futures were always somehow meant to be linked. I can see us being very happy together, someday. All grown up,lessons learned,eyes wide open. We'd be good for each other,and to each other.
    Sometimes I'm scared by my feelings towards you. Wish I knew if you could ever feel the same for me. Or is all of this in my head?

    i cannot believe you didnt show up last week

    you were conspicuous by your absence

    lots of others were there to support me, but you were missing, with not even a text to acknowledge the event

    that speaks volumes

    i wasnt expecting to meet you yesterday. i wasnt ready or prepared. what are the bloody chances that we would both be in dublin on the same day and that we would meet on the street.

    dammit, i have so much to say to you but was so taken aback yesterday that i couldnt say half of what i wanted to say.

    the loaded silences and tender smiles yesterday said a lot i suppose but we both know why neither of us will take that step of picking up the phone.

    so we'll keep going as we are, with the elephant in the room whenever we meet.

    and we'll have to be content with that.


    ps i told you 2 years ago that going grey would make you sexier, you disagreed but yesterday i saw i was right ;)


    dear m,

    so, fate throws us across each others paths yet again, except this time i will be prepared, i know when to expect it, but i dont know what exactly to expect.

    i know though that as soon as we meet i will be swooning and will feel that irresistable overwhelming attraction.

    what happens after that? well, i'm open to suggestion ;)

    Dear L

    It breaks my heart that we cant be together properly because of your health. I just want the doctors to find out whats wrong with you, but for right now my head is saying to let you go so you can get on with your life and concentrate on getting better.

    I've had some of the best times of my life with you, you got me smiling again and you're the first guy I've had such a laugh with and can finally be myself with. Its so hard to say goodbye to you, my only hope is one day we will meet again if its meant to be. I do love you, but I'm afraid to say it now.:(

    Dear Fool..
    I am so angry with you at the moment, you really cut me deep last week and I'd realised you didn't mean what you said. Well all of it anyway. I really want to be with you but after all you've done I just can't. I'm in a really bad place at the moment and you know what I've done twice in a week. To me, you barely acknowledge it? Pressurising me to meet up and talk is not what I want right now. I said not to talk to me for a while because I wanted to think about it all and you keep texting me..not getting the message that I want to be alone.. You are really stressing me out with everything youre saying to me. What you said last night, that my nanny would turn in her grave if she knew I was having these thoughts, was the most hurtful thing you could say. You haven't even said sorry for it? You said sorry for upsetting me..That's not gonna get rid of it. I cried for a solid hour after that. You really cut me deep. My mother said that to my father about his dad, and you know how much I hate her since that one statement. I don't even know if I can find it to forgive you after that. Today I wanted to talk about how I felt, you thought it was about me & you. That's never going to happen anymore. You've said too many harsh things in 4 days for me to consider that.
    The hard thing is that I really do like you? You claim to love me but I don't think you could with everything you've been saying.
    I don't know if this is the end of me..but bye x

    Dear R,

    Kindly take your nose out of X's business. It is NOT her fault that your marriage went to ****. I can understand why he is not with you now. He is moving on give him that. He is really happy and I can see how much stress you cause him. Give it over.

    Please stop poisoning your own children against him and X. Its not fair, they are at the age not to know any better. Its cruel. You remind me of someone who I am very close to but you are ten times worse.

    X deserves to be happy, I have not seen her like this about anyone in a long time and it makes me so happy. So piss off and mind your own business. Find some other poor creature that you can sponge money and holidays off of.

    Leave my family alone.

    Yours spitefully

    I've been putting this off for a while now, and I don't even know why I'm going to write this, or how much sense it will make.

    Dear C,
    In all the years of my life, I have never regretted a single thing I've done. From drugs, alcohol, to a complete waste of life that was barely capable of moving my hands. I don't regret doing those things, they made me the man I am today.
    But, I know regret one thing, and that's losing you.

    I am, 6 months later, still madly in love with you. I've gone from woman to woman, using them to make myself feel something, but as soon as we get close, I know they'll never be as good as you, and I hurt them.

    I didn't want us to break up, you need to know this. I was given a choice, to see my children, or to see you. I panicked, didn't know what to do.
    Choose my children, or the woman I fell in love with when I was just 19 years old.
    I should have told you what was happening, explained she was threatening to take my kids away, stop me from ever seeing them again. But I didn't want to drag you into it, I wanted to spare you from the drama and pain that was coming up for us. I didn't want you to feel like I'd choose you over the kids or vice versa.
    So I panicked, and left you. Gods know I've never cried so much in my life.

    You have no idea what I would give to turn back time and stay with you. Being with you made me happier than I've ever been. I have always, and will always love you.

    Dear T
    Mother of my children. We were never truly in love, we both knew it, but we went along with it anyway. When our relationship ended, it was mutual. We were both unhappy, and it was affecting everything.
    Then, for no reason, you move to another part of the country, try to prevent me seeing my children, and destroyed everything I owned in our old house.
    You're a bitch, for years I looked after us, helped with your family issues, but then you left me without a penny to my name, no clothes, no home. And to make matters worse, you forced me into making the hardest decision I'd ever have to make, and you knew it would kill me making that choice.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,162 ✭✭✭Kiva.D


    Hey You - God I miss you today. I've been palpably angry lately. Not knowing why... All those years, I wish I had the courage to tell you how deeply in love I was with you; no matter how much time or space I put between us, seems to diminish. And all those lifes plans we made - you know, the ones I let slip away soooo easily. Well, I'm all grown up now and living out my pennance. The only gift I want today is to hear your voice. But the only gift I really need is to release you, release us from my memory. Doesn't look like I'm getting either wish today. But tomorrow, I am taking myself out to the airfield. But this time, no crash-landing. I’m not afraid anymore.


  • Registered Users Posts: 21 boxie


    Hi,

    I dont want all of you anymore. I'll settle for whatever you can give me. Its always gonna be less than I deserve, I know this now, But its better than nothing or less than nothing which is how I've been feeling lately without you. I know you're out now, you wont think of me once, I'll just have to get used to it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,660 ✭✭✭G86


    Dear .

    I know you're reading this, you're probably stalking my posts daily at this stage. So, here's the thing.

    What you did was pure vindictive, there's no other way of putting it.

    You twisted things I said, made assumptions based on comments you knew nothing about, and then used it as leverage to talk sh1te about me behind my back - to someone I care about. Did you really think I wouldn't find out?

    I understand that you may have innocently misinterpreted my comments and who they referenced, but even if that was the case -it was very hateful to go out of your way to try to cause tension. You got the wrong end of the stick completely, and I just can't understand why you felt the need to get involved in my life when you're basically a stranger to me.

    I don't think that you're a bad person, I think that you're very lonely and insecure and that maybe you felt you needed to say those things in order to make a friend. But bitching about other people doesn't make you friends, it just makes you a very sad, two-faced person, and those kind of people always get caught out eventually - as you've seen.

    I've asked you not to try it again, and I no longer wish to associate with you. I don't associate with people I can't trust, people who use and manipulate others lives for their own benefit.... and that's what you've done.

    I was very angry, but I've sorted it all out now and to be honest I just feel sorry for you. I'm sorry that you felt the need to intrude on my life and someone elses just to make your own seem a bit more exciting. I know that's a mean thing to say, but I also know that you're probably pm'ing people with various stories of what happened - all of which are most likely untrue, and it's just very unfair.

    But, I'm not like you, and I won't be telling anyone who you are or what you've done. So you don't need to worry, I'm not going to try and destroy the friendships you've made here (and trust me, that's what would happen if I told them the full story), because as far as I can see you need all the friends you can get.

    I'm a good person, I care about people, I'm loyal and honest, and I would never say the things you've inferenced. When I post here, or on my blog, or on facebook - most of what I say can be taken in jest - and if you were a friend, you'd know that. But you're not, you're a random person off the internet who I've met once, and you need to learn that that does not equal a friendship, nor does it mean you know me one bit. I post alot on here, and it may seem I post recklessly in terms of personal info - but that's actually not the case. I limit what I write to an extent, and what you see really isn't exactly what you get. You can't get to know me through my posts, or through my facebook pictures, and you sure as hell can't get to know me by trying to destroy my real-life relationships with people I care about. Although that didn't go very well for you, did it.

    I nearly closed my account over you. It freaks me out to think that someone online could actually effect my real-life in such a way, that someone could have such an active interest in spreading lies about me.

    If you want to apologise, I'll accept. Because as I said, I don't think you're a bad person. But, denying what you did and playing the clueless card really isn't going to go down well with me, especially when I know you're probably still slagging me off left right and centre.

    I'd have had alot more respect for you if you just admitted you were wrong and apologised in the first place. Everyone makes mistakes.

    I really hope you find some peace within yourself, I hope you learn to become more content with yourself and your own life, and I hope that someday you realise that you have more to offer than spreading gossip.

    Sincerely,
    G

    Dear Mr xxxxx

    So you are probably thinking you got away with it. When you got my cheque in your hands and held onto it and I didnt come looking for it......

    So what possessed you to cash someone elses (my) cheque is beyond me. So a bit of time has passed and you are resting easy enjoying your pints out in the sun, tapping away on your iphone and trying at all costs to avoid me...... Do you know something I don't?

    Well I have news for you.. You stole from a disabled child. Much needed money to take the child for medical treatment outside of this recession hit country.

    And whats more............

    They are coming for you.......... I will be seeing you sooner than you think.......across a courtroom.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 166,026 ✭✭✭✭LegacyUser


    Dear .

    I can't believe you have been talking to your friends about me behind my back instead of raising issues with me. It's hard enough being in a long-distance relationship without suddenly realising after more than two years that we still don't have the necessary communication skills to sort out minor problems. I am shocked that you would prefer to pretend you're blissfully happy while humiliating me behind my back than start a simple discussion more befitting of a 31-year-old man.

    I know I am not perfect, but I compared myself to you and that made me feel worse. I thought you were noble and I was a brat. Part of me is strangely relieved to find out I was wrong.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1 Donegalass


    Dear J

    You were a huge part of my life for eight years and still to this day I cannot believe how easily I was fooled into thinking you loved me. All I was guilty of was being young and naïve and wanting more from my life by going to college if that makes me a bad person I am truly sorry. When I told you I was going back to college and then a week later you told me you were going to Cardiff it was fine I told you I would visit every month which I did but when I did I was always in the way now I know why. You were my first love and sometimes I wonder what could’ve been. I was there for you every time you needed me but unfortunately as I look back now I realise you were never there for me, even when I lost my two aunts in the space of a fortnight you couldn’t return the favour! Now I realise how selfish you really were. You lied to me all the time and obviously thought I’d never find out but Paul always got great enjoyment letting me know.

    I asked you if you cheated on me and fathered a child in Cardiff and you told me that you hadn’t but I don’t understand why you felt the need to lie when two weeks later you decided to be honest. I never felt so worthless in my life so much so I tried to take an overdose when I got home that night. I will never forgive you for that because now I realise that over the eight years my confidence slowly slipped away. Then I realised I deserved so much more and the only thing I could do was move away as it would have killed me to see you all the time and I know I wasn’t strong enough to cut you out of my life. So I moved to Dublin with my sisters.

    It’s funny in a way as I always was a home bird and even my father only gave me a fortnight then I would be home again ha that was not the case eleven years later and I am still living in Dublin. I have to thank you for what happened because if it wasn’t for you I wouldn’t have meet and married the man who has done more for me than you ever could every time I need him he is always by my side and never lets me down. Slowly but surly my confidence has returned. I want to take this opportunity to thank you because if it wasn’t for you I wouldn’t be the person I am today and wouldn’t have met the person I know I will spend the rest of my life with.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 166,026 ✭✭✭✭LegacyUser


    You are soooooo hot. For years I stare at you, I think you stare back - do you?....Someday I really hope I get the opportunity to get to know you...I wish today was someday! Maybe its all in my head, maybe your a womaniser and you just look at everyone....I wish I knew.

    *Me*


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 166,026 ✭✭✭✭LegacyUser


    I had a dream about you last night. Not a regular occurrence. It wasn't one of those dreams where they fly in through the window but it might as well have been.

    You didn't say or do anything, but you were there. And that was awesome. I think after weeks of trying not to think about you my subconscious forced me to. I woke up in the early hours of this morning realising that I'm not over this at all.

    I said something in the dream, though. I said "I'm sorry for everything." And in a way I am. I hate how this has turned out, but I wonder could it have turned out differently. You hurt me. You know that. Was I short with you? Yes. Did I get the wrong end of the stick sometimes? Almost definitely. I think I led you on, and said things that I didn't mean. But does that make us even? I don't think so.

    I don't know if apologising to you would be a moment of strength or weakness. I guess that would be for you to decide. My head screams the latter. I don't know if I even want to talk to you right now. I think I'm afraid that what happened in the dream will happen in reality, as well – that I'll take all the blame and no lessons will be learned.

    I miss you. But I don't want to miss you. And that kills me.

    Dear X,

    You finally got back to me after I swallowed my pride and contacted you first. It all feels so horribly sad. You have left me behind totally and to make matters worse I think you were dissatisfied with me for a good while. I can't help but feel that my emotional issues frustrated you, not matter how much you said they didn't. Now I'm worried they're still not solved and I'll just recoil again with the next partner. I wish you could just suck it up and meet up with me, give me the respect I deserve. It was a year. So much time spent waiting to see each other and it was over before it was even given a chance. I know I should just let go. But I feel so utterly rejected. Why can't you say anything to make me feel better? Why don't you try?

    Me


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 166,026 ✭✭✭✭LegacyUser


    Dear Friends,

    I hate the way you put me down with sly comments.
    I hate how you make me feel about certain situations.
    I hate how you can make me feel like crap by saying two words.
    I hate that you always depend on me.
    I hate how I will listen to you bitch and moan about the stupidest things for hours and hours but when I wanna talk about something you brush it off or just ignore me completely.
    I hate how you think your better than me.
    I hate that you think that there must be something wrong with me because I haven't lost my virginity yet.
    I hate the sly comments and remarks that get made about me whenever the subject of sex is brought up.
    I hate how jealous I get when you do things without me.
    I hate how angry I get over the stupid things.
    I hate how if you ask for advice and I tell you something you dont wanna hear, you will ignore it and bitch about me for saying the thing that we all wanted to but no one had the balls to say.

    I spend alot of my time worring about what you lot say behind my back.

    But what scares me the most is that I know that without you im nothing, I wouldn't be able to do anything and I would feel so alone, I don't know what that says about me..
    I just listed a whole bunch of things that I hate about you guys but the thoughts of not having you all in my life scares me even more. =/

    Me x


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,213 ✭✭✭daenerysstormborn3


    I don't know how much more of this I can take before I explode.

    You won't talk to me about it, when you do it's all BS and you try your best to just end the conversation as soon as possible.

    I walked into work this morning and just burst into tears and I have been hiding in my office crying since.

    All I want is an explanation.

    Friends should make you happy and feel good. These people are not your friends! You can easily make new ones, don't be afraid.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,965 ✭✭✭SarahBeep!


    Dear E,
    I need to write all this down. Whether or not you want to read this is an entirely different story but at last I know I’ve said it.
    You’re the only person I’ve ever let treat me like I don’t matter. I’m ashamed of myself for this. I let you become a priority when you only ever treated me as an option. I let you see parts of me that only you know and I can never take that back. You know things about me that only you know and even though you’ve told me so many lies I trust you to keep them to yourself. I think of all the nights and days and mornings and evening we’ve spent together or talking. So much time invested in each other over the last five years I am going to find it hard walking away. Before you say that you want me to be your friend, I find that insulting because implying that there could be a friendship between us like saying there was never anything between us to begin with and we both know that is so very far from the truth.
    There are things that I have felt for you that I’ve never felt for anyone else. I have never said I love you to anyone else and every single time I said it to you, I was telling the absolute truth even when I was unsure of whether your reply was true or not. All the things I’ve done with you and shared with you were not out of lust. As long as I live there are some things about you that I will always remember.
    The way I felt all those years ago lying in your bedroom looking into your eyes, you holding my gaze. One of the only times I’ve ever felt able to look someone directly in the eye for so long.
    One night we were in your bed and the central heating was on but we had the windows open.. You were lying on the side of the bed closest to the door and I was lying on my back with my head on your chest and I could feel the wind coming in the window, passing over the radiator and getting warm and drifting across the room. Right at that moment I felt like we were lying on a beach in a faraway place where we wouldn’t have to get out of bed, nobody was going to come home at half ten and find us in bed together, I didn’t have to worry about being the bitch that was sleeping with you while you had a girlfriend.
    When all the **** kicked off in school when I was in fifth year and we weren’t allowed go to school on the Monday but made go to school on the Tuesday you were there for me. It was the middle of the night and there was no way I was going to be able to sleep and before I knew it you were knocking on my bedroom window. You came in and stayed with me that night and gave me what nobody else knew I needed. You just lay there and held me close until I fell asleep. In my wildest dreams you always played the hero.
    But there were times you let me down. All those night you stood me up, left me waiting broke plans we’d made, broke promises, broke me. There were times when I needed you to fight for me. I needed you to tell me how much you needed me and how much you wanted me. When I was going out withJ, and all the other boyfriends and girlfriends that were disposable and insignificant, you never once said pick me. Pick me over them.
    For years my friends are telling me to walk away. Telling me I deserve better. You said to me days ago that I deserve better. But when you said it you sounded like you were saying that you deserve better. I don’t need you or anyone else to tell me to tell me what I need or want or deserve. I knew full well what was and still is best for me, but I chose to want you instead.
    You never gave us a chance, either time. Both times you became distracted by someone else, someone new. But to go and dump me for one date with somebody I know?? That was low E. Lower than I ever thought a man could sink.

    I put up with a lot, I put up with you sitting on your ass smoking weed day in, day out. It ruined you. You used to be exciting and impulsive. Now you’re just fuzzy all the time.
    There is something you said to me all those yours ago, ‘You and me babe, I can see us being together years from now, when we’re in our twenties.’


    You chose drugs over me. I know you can change, but I know you won't. So I'm not waiting around.


    All my love, always,
    The Best Thing You Ever Had

    Dear everybody,

    Maybe its time I start being selfish. Your all getting bits of me and I`m half doing everything cause my time is so split. I just look like a loser all the time. I`m exhaused and I haven`t even started a family of my own yet. Will everything fall apart? will I end up feeling really guilty? I worry about those things but I can see now no one is really worried about me and it always ends up blowing up in my face. Getting really cranky and don`t particularly want to take it out on you guys.

    Me, me, me (aparently my new mantra)

    G,

    Where do I even start? We are absolutely toxic for each other. Each and every time you come into my life, it's fun for a while but realistically, the fact is, you bring me to places I don't wanna be. Okay, "it's all a bit of craic", I get it - you want to laugh, be happy. Thing is, you have a problem with drugs. And I can't let your problem ever become my problem.

    I don't really know what to do anymore. We've talked. And talked, and talked. You say you'll stop buying weed. You say you'll smoke less. It just never happens. Seeing you this weekend - on pills - fuck, I didn't even want to be around you.

    I don't know how it got to this stage but the choice is yours now - it's me or it's drugs. I'm pretty sure I know which one it's gonna be, and the fact that things really are that bad makes me feel sick.

    Dear Mr. Cyclist on the 4 o'clock train to Wexford,

    Thank you for brightening up my day considerably with your too-tight cycling shorts and your long, lithe, gorgeously tanned legs. If you're wondering why the blonde girl sitting next to you is fidgeting so much it's only to stop myself from stroking you. That would most likely get me arrested and I have a very busy week so that just wouldn't do at all.

    Yours in admiration and unadulterated lust,

    g'em


    :pac:

    We all say stupid things when we're drunk. Stop giving me the silent treatment just because I was locked on Sunday. You have said worse to me and you know it.

    You are exhausting, and yet I keep coming back for more. You know why I freaked out, and yet you're trying to make this my fault.

    Give me back the €200 you owe me and p1ss off.

    Dear ex,

    Jesus it hurt when I found out that you had left me for someone else. It was like a knife stabbing me in the back!! All the lies that you told me!

    I just wanted you to know that all these months later, I met a man and he is great, I am mad about him!!!

    In fact the last time I felt this way was when I first met you!!! hahahaha

    I wanted you to know I am happy and I forgive you!! Really, I mean that!

    Ps: And the sex was ****ing great, with him that is not you!!!!lol

    Dear boyfriend,

    I love you but I go away for a few days leaving a spotless house and come back to a pigsty. No I do not have OCD either. Fix the bloody cushions on the sofa when you get up so it doesn't look like the sofa is trying to eat them. Stop walking across my clean floors in your big, dirty work boots. Stop blaming the dog too! Last time I checked he didn't wear size 11 boots!

    Your loving girlfriend.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,162 ✭✭✭Kiva.D


    RU- I haven’t thought of you for one blessed week! Someone said a word this morning; the same word was on a note from my boss, this afternoon; then again this evening - a stranger typed it on my computer screen, twice... Your name isn’t that common; it rarely comes up. So why has it been following me around all day? You have my attention. Wish I knew the answer. Just wish I didn’t know the question. –Me

    Dear new fella,
    You're wrecking my head. We've had 3 dates in as many weeks, each lasting hours on end. But our last date (for which you drove a 6 hour round trip) was Monday night,& since then I've heard nothing from you.
    It's so confusing! Is this the start of something? Is it the end of the start of something? I'm so reluctant to believe the last few weeks have only been about one thing, which I've failed to deliver on thus far; you couldn't be shallow enough to end all contact based on this?!
    I don't have a clue where we- if there even is a "we"!- stand. This is meant to be the romantic, rose-garden, stage. Instead it seems like it's only the I-want-to-jump-you stage.
    I need more time before I can commit to you in that way. If you're not prepared to give me that time, well then maybe we're not meant to be.
    Just man up& have the balls to tell me what the story is.
    Regards, New gal

    Dear dad
    Still miss you after 26yrs, wish you had been there last Saturday to give me away, still dream about you you and thankfully think your grandson has inherited your sense of humour.....god help us. You'd be proud of mam she brought us up well and always made sure we talked about and remembered you :)


    Dear P and D
    If dad were still alive you wouldn't have pulled that crap. You have NO idea how much you have upset and angered mam, she will NEVER forgive either of you.
    You like to talk about God and dad and how they are watching over us and how they see what is going on in our lives good because dad will have seen how much pain and upset you caused his wife and daughter.
    You did nothing to help mam while she reared us on her own, this was the one thing you were asked to do and you wouldn't.
    Oh and you can keep your bloody cheque......you didn't even bother to spell OH surname right!!!!!!!!!!! Pathetic

    Dear X (and wife)
    He is your son....has been your son for 17yrs! Cop the f**k on and be a bloody man!!!!!!!!!!
    Are you happy now he has no respect for you?
    She must be some wonderful s**g for you to turn your back on your own child.
    Thankfully the rest of your family realise how precious he is so your loss not theirs.

    Dear DH
    Thank you for loving me......and my mad insane complicated offspring
    Thank you for giving me DD2 and for being dad to DD1.
    I know they drive you mad and are a constant drain on what little money we have but they love you and I can't imagine what my life would be without you.
    Thank you for marrying me......it was one of the best days of my life:)

    Dear hubby,

    I want a baby but I want you to want one with me to. I know its not practicle but when is it the right time? I want to be sure I`m in good enough shape but my patience is running out I can`t stand to see any more friends with their babies and what if I have wasted my chances. I`m TERRIFIED, this is the scariest thing in the world for me and I need you 110% in.

    I love you like I never thought I could love anyone and I`m offering you the biggest commitment I`ve ever made to anyone and you just seem to be throwing it in my face, your hurting me so much.

    Me xxx

    Dear fella from Saturday night

    Could have warned me you were a cannibal. Hickeys should not be painful. And should not be given by a 26 year old. You mingbag.

    Good night though ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 166,026 ✭✭✭✭LegacyUser


    Dear Ma,

    I know you never sought recognition; that the good you did, be it at home for the family, or out in the wider community, was not for show. But I have to acknowledge it, and just so you know other good people saw it too.

    You were the bravest, most dignified woman, and your battle against that impossible monster was inspirational. I’m not half the person I should be but wouldn’t be half that had you not been my mother.

    You deserved an easier life. You deserved more time.

    A few years after you died I read all your old books and listened to the music you would have listened to. I think you were pretty ****ing cool Ma, and I regret not getting to know you as I got older.

    Who was the girl who decided to go traveling in Iceland on her own in the 70’s? (Was she the owner of the dried out weed in your decades old copy of Catch22?) I knew you were brave, and ambitious.

    And boundless energy, even when you were quite obviously sick. You did more in the 8 years of your illness than most do in a lifetime. So ****ing selfless you dedicated your time to everybody.

    I remember the sickness so clearly. How it ramp sacked your body. You were skin and bone when you died. The pain at the end was a cruel **** you from a world that you did nothing but enrich. You did not deserve that.

    I’m 27 now, Ma, and nothing special. Crap job, no girlfriend etc… but people seem to think I’m alright, well the people who matter anyway. (Some even say I remind them of you, a complement I feel inadequate for.) I get so down sometimes, it’s just the way my brain fires it would appear. But I always have my memory of you...of that goodness, and I’m not ready to check out of this world yet.

    I dedicate whatever time I am given on this earth to you…I hope that someday that amounts to something.

    Rest well, Ma.

    Dear M

    You told me the other day that you still care for her, that you love her more than anything, I was a bit pushed because she put you through so much hell in the three years you were with her. I want you to know that if you truly want to be with her then go ahead take the chance but please don't let yourself fall back into the hole we hate seeing you like that.

    Your lil sis

    Dear J

    Some people are not lucky enough to get second chances, please don't waste yours and don't hurt him again.

    Dear M + J

    I really hope this time around everything works out for you, I wish you all the best.

    Dear bf,

    Thank you for making me think and see sense. You've made me cop on to myself and realise that I have no reason to be so down. My life is actually really great and I should be thankful. I have you, I have my friends, I have my family, I have my health. And while I'm not entirely happy with my body you've made me realise that it's still beautiful as it is. I'm so sorry that you had to threaten to break up with me to get me to think and realise that I've been an idiot. It hurts me I made you worry so much.

    I love you so much, I hope you know that.

    J xx

    E, You have the cutest smile I've ever seen. :) But you'll never hear it from me. And the way you clench your jaw and squint at me when you're trying to figure out what to do, it's adorable. But deep down we both know, neither of us is ready for a relationship. We gave our whole hearts away long ago, and the more we try to get them back, the further they slip back in time. So why do we walk around with these silly grins and hold onto each others hands like we can't let go? Friends we shall stay - really close friends.

    Dear BF,

    why are u making me wait????? i want nothing more than to be ur wife, weve been together for two years now. u know i want to be with u, u know i want to settle down and have a family with u. what's taking u so long? i really thought when we went away last month to cuba that would be it. that u would finally make your move. but u didn't and the whole holiday was ruined.

    and now ur annoyed cos im acting moody with u since we got back, but what do u expect?????? how many hints do i have to drop that i want you to propose???? how many mags left open on the ring pages. how many times do i have to mention my friends and there weddings and there babies?????

    u say u dont want kids yet, but i know all ur friends have kids or kids on the way. i know they tell u how great it is to be a father. u told me once ur not sure u ever want kids but what kind of a man never wants kids???? i know u didnt mean that, but u cant make me wait forever. it's not fair.

    please stop being such a coward. please propose.

    yours,
    the girl who wants to marry you


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,766 ✭✭✭squeakyduck


    Dear *

    Everytime I see you, you end up making me so mad. I've known you my whole life and you are still stuck on the same page from almost 20 years ago. It frustrates me and makes me sad. You are diabetic yet I find sweet wrappers under all the clutter in your car....I don't believe your little lie "ah it was the kids that were eating that" even when you have a teeny bit of chocolate around your mouth. You will make yourself so ill.

    I would love to have a good friendship with you, but you make it impossible as you constantly snipe at all of us, even behind our backs, I walked in on it today, he was embarrassed and you looked down. I have people to see and meet. If I do not see you there is all hell to pay. I am my own person now but you fail to realise this. Leave me breathe.

    I love him, I always have and always will. You will NEVER change my opinion of him no matter how harshly you speak of him and his previous wrong doings.

    Please cop on to yourself before it's too late, every time I go to see you I resent you a little bit more, and I hate myself for it

    Dear J

    The past year has been really tough for me, my head has been a mess and my life somehow spiralled beyond my control. I thought I knew what I wanted, but in reality I was just getting by from one day to the next. I used you the time before that, I used you to take my mind off things and I'm so so sorry for that. But you're as much to blame, and I'm just asking you to please acknowledge that. Last time was different, yes I was hurting but I still wanted to try, I liked you a lot...regardless of what you might think.

    You say you were interested, but you never made me feel like you were - it seemed like a power thing to you, you never let me feel in control of things - you always had the upper hand. That was the last thing I needed J; after my previous relationship I needed stability, I needed honesty, and I needed someone to put me first for a change...but I seemed to be at the bottom of a long list with you.

    I'm not a prima donna, I'm not high maintenence, but I don't think it's much to expect the guy you're seeing to return your calls or even just reply to a text within 48 hours. Do you not see the impression that gave? I felt like you really didn't give a ****, and it felt like we were back to square one. You said things would be different, you said there were other circumstances before, but things didn't change.

    That weekend, I was ill, and I was worrying about how I'd get the time off work for the plans we'd made at the same time, so I text you to find out dates etc. But you never once got back to me, because you were busy. Busy? I understand it was an important weekend for you, but come on J, a text takes 2 seconds. We only made those plans because you had cancelled the others, do you really blame me for being wary? Please don't read this in a smart ass tone, that's not what I'm doing, I'm just trying really really hard to have an open conversation with you - even if it's only one way, because it's something we never managed to do.

    I'm writing this to make up for the one you mentioned, to stop with the slyness and be as direct as I can. There's just something about you that always draws me back, it's like I can see this kind, considerate, and brilliantly witty guy who makes me smile everytime I meet up with him; but then there's the evasive, arrogant, and flaky guy on the other end of the phone, who just doesn't seem that interested in me at all...and makes me feel like crap. Which are you? I'm just really confused, and I have been since Day 1.


    Maybe you did the long term thing before, maybe you've been hurt and you don't want to jump into anything. You said that to me once before - that you were hurt in the past, but I thought you were taking the piss. Were you? See, I never know with you. But still, it was hardly jumping, we just seemed to hop and skip our way through 3 years, constantly moving yet somehow staying in the same place. And anyway, it doesn't seem like a line you'd roll with...

    You've treated me badly, and I've done the same to you. But the thing is, I can admit where I was wrong. You won't - you put all the blame on me, and that wasn't fair at all. I left a relationship that had left me broken and I tried to fix myself whilst seeing you, that wasn't the way to go about it. I'm sorry for that. But I've always been open with you, I've told you things I've never told anyone, and I've always been clear about what I want; it just grinds you back when you never get the same in return.

    Then there was the sex thing, I know you thought it was on the cards when we met up the last time. But I just wasn't ready, and I'm sorry if I lead you on. I just didn't feel comfortable enough with you, and it was too soon after my break up. I hope you can understand that. I wasn't trying to play games, but you know by now that I don't sleep around. I think you'll understand, because you seem the same.

    I wanted to say all this when I asked you about meeting up a few weeks ago; I wanted to clear the air, because try as I might...I can never help thinking 'what if' when it comes to you. I know you thought you were getting back at me with your reply, letting me know you've met someone you're more interested in... and you did. You won, it gave me that lousy feeling in the pit of my stomach, and it hurt.

    Your remarks were uncalled for, and you know that. My behaviour has been dictated by yours, we've both been as bad as each other and there was no need for it. I've been dating a guy there recently, but despite all the **** you're still on my mind.

    I just want to scratch it all out, I want to start over, I want to keep in touch, and even though there's no chance of anything now I'd love to see you before I go.

    You know rightly that this is about you and I'm hoping you'll let me know. But I'm scared to send a text in case I get a nasty one back, and I can't handle that. I'm risking this because we seem to be on ok terms now after the last time we talked...and I'm hoping you'll get back to me if you're free.

    If not, then I guess you still think everything you said before. That's fair enough.

    p.s. if I don't see you, thanks for some great times.

    Me.

    Dear guest111111111,

    I know we're not meant to comment/give advice on here but I would really recommend that you start rethinking your relationship if you need to write this.

    You're only 2 years together. It's not really that long when you think about it, maybe he's just not ready to settle down like that just yet.

    And you can't force him to have kids. If he doesn't want them, he doesn't want them. Maybe he'll change his mind, but maybe he won't. It could already be set.

    I really think that you need to talk to him and work out if this is really the relationship for you. By the sounds of it you two are looking for completely different things and the longer you leave it the worse things will get.

    Sorry if I've offended you or anything. I just felt that it needed to be said tbh.

    XxMCRxBabyxX
