and i saw “learn how to drive stick shift,” and i almost wrote an entry about how the boy that i’m crazy about said he’d teach me this summer. but then i realized, wow, i’ve mentioned him in so many of my goals already, and nothing has happened, and nothing probably ever will happen, and nothing will probably ever change. we got in a fight last thursday-ish, and for some reason after this fight, i felt so.. liberated? his attitude during this fight was so.. cold-hearted, it made me realize that this is kind of how he always is? not that we’re always fighting, at all, things are usually good between us, but when we fight, or when it comes to him expressing his feelings through action, he absolutely refuses and changes the topic, or withdraws completely. he lives a little far away, and for the past two years he hasnt made any attempt to visit me or stay with me. and now.. i think i might finally be realizing that this isn’t my fault, it’s his. he’s so unhappy and negative about so many aspects of his life, and if he can’t go out of his way a little bit to have me be an important part of his life, then there isn’t a single thing i can do about it, even though there’s no doubt in my mind about how strong my feelings for him are. i don’t want to waste my life and be unhappy just because the boy i love can’t organize himself. i’m not sure if i’m ready to check this goal off yet, in case i have some sort of emotional relapse, but i think i’m on my way.. hopefully.
