a friend said something the other day.
if someone really wants to see you, they will make time. that’s basically the quote, but she said it a little differently.
this came about since i was texting with this friend of a friend who was a prospective date. however, every time (except 1) i asked to do something, she was always busy. she did offer and alternative time one time.
but she said:
Between work, tutoring, and prepping for the CBEST and CSET lately, there is very little personal time left. Trying my best to stay in touch with family and friends.
so i’m done. maybe some other time, but there’s no sense in wasting time. if she really wanted to see me, she would.
and a random set of text with rachel following a text she sent me.
I know I have no right to say anything but I get jealous! Ugh. I’ll keep the green monster at bay! MY BAD!!!!! (regarding a colleague who i have to work with closely since we work with the same schools).
then we had the following text “conversation”
Me:Your comment about jealousy a while back got to me. It’s a tough spot for me. I didn’t really know how yo respond. When you told me you were seeing John again it was pretty rough.
Her: I am sorry for that. When we started dating (ish) you asked if I were seeing anyone else…I wasn’t. When I started to I wanted to be honest about it.
Me:I understand and am thankful for it. I hope everything works out as you hope.
Her: I don’t want to put you in a tough spot but I wasn’t trying to stop dating you…just to be clear. He wanted another chance to “make things right.” I told him I would try but I told him about you too. He understood I was still going to date other people.
Her: completely understood that may be something you were uncomfortable with....not like I could blame you.
Me: And how are things?
Her: Depends on the day
Me: It’s tough to compete with someone who has a spot in your heart
Her: I know
Me: And that was a large part of the reason I didn’t respond to your evite for emma
Her: I figured and I understand. But whether we r together or not I still would want you in my life…and that’s why I invited you.
Me: It’d make my life much easier if I could hate you.
Her: Ummm let’s not go crazy…throwing around the H word
Her: …
Her:I dont want u caring about me to make ur life difficult…
Me: A little much I would agree…
Me: Its just tough being on the other side.
Her: I can imagine.
Her: I can not be a selfish person. And if u tell me that u can’t b more than my colleague for all the reasons I’m sure u must have by now…I will respect that. But I will HATE it.
Her: And I will be more mean to Sarah. I’m just saying.
Me: Yeah. Having unrecirprocated feelings is no fun
Her: Way to throw the H word around
Her: They aren’t unreciprocated
Her: I mean it too…HATE IT
Her: But I would do it…because I DO care about you!
Her: I will follow your lead…let me know. Emma banana is up and needs some TLC
