surferlacie: I mean... it depends, really surferlacie: sometimes I just want to be left alone, sometimes I want someone around but I don't want to talk surferlacie: like, sometimes allowing myself to be sad is kinda therapeutic in itself surferlacie: sometimes talking about things helps, but it takes a bit of time to get there surferlacie: and I guess sometimes it also depends on like, why I'm sad?

bren.j.clarke: her boyfriend broke up with her out of the blue bren.j.clarke: and I mean, it kind of relates to me though I didn't do anything bren.j.clarke: so I feel kind of like I want to help and I've been trying but it's kind of coming up empty bren.j.clarke: I've never seen her sad for so long

surferlacie: yeah, break ups are pretty tough.. surferlacie: I mean, she might just need a mourning period surferlacie: which is rough to watch, but I'm sure you just being there for her will help in the end

bren.j.clarke: she's usually not so upset though bren.j.clarke: like this isn't the first guy to break up with her because he thinks there's something going on between us

surferlacie: maybe she had stronger feelings for this one? surferlacie: like... if you date someone that you like and break up, yeah, it sucks surferlacie: but if you're in love with someone and things go to hell, it's a whole different level

bren.j.clarke: I guess that's possible bren.j.clarke: but all this makes me want to do is go mess up her ex for being such a bastard

surferlacie: probably not, but then, probably nothing will until you guys are like... both seriously involved with someone else surferlacie: and even then, if someone wants to cling to that perspective, they will no matter what

surferlacie: is that really news to you? surferlacie: I mean, I'm sure the fact that you're there for her helps, but yeah, it might not help to the level you wish it did right away surferlacie: Sherri's had a rough few months this year and like... there's only so much you can do to fix it surferlacie: be around in case she wants you around, if you get the feeling that she doesn't feel like talking then don't push it, and if she's doing a bit better than just wanting to be quiet, just be your usual self, that'll be enough for her

bren.j.clarke: well I was hoping you'd have some sort of solution I hadn't thought of bren.j.clarke: and I hope that's true, but I'd rather it happen sooner than later bren.j.clarke: I miss my best friend
