Subject: "friends" and friends
Hi, Megan.
Here's my two cents, for what it's worth.
Are you a pussy for forgiving this guy, and for telling him why you were
pissed off?
No. It's not worth carrying around that kind of anger. After all, you
were lucky to find out about Crystal when you did. I've known people who
progressed into bed and into the other person's apartment and even into
marriage before finding out about Crystal.
So, for what it's worth, if I was in your situation I would try to forgive
him. I would never speak to him again, but I would forgive him, or at
least I would try to.
And it's not just straight guys who do this, though they do a lot of it.
I've known married men who pick up guys on the side, then go home to their
wives at the end of the night. And a woman once moved in with me, without
mentioning to me that she was planning on moving out in the summer when
the guy she really loved came back to town.
I know a woman who had two long-term committed relationships with other
women. Both ended the same way, with the sudden discovery that her lover
had another lover, and in both cases it was a close mutual friend (not the
same one).
The "can we still be friends?" thing is a pet peeve of mine. I dislike
the phrase "just friends" also. Like "lovers" is #10 on an invisible
scale somewhere, and "friends" is down around #5 or so. Friends, real
friends, are at least as precious as lovers, and they're much more likely
to last your whole life (if you value them and put some work into the
connection).
One of the closest friends I have is the first woman I had sex
with. She's been married to another of my closest friends for over 20
years. At this point, it's easy to forget we were ever lovers, but my
life would be very different without her friendship.
I was thinking of this when Victoria posted about her "friends" who turned
their backs on her the minute she stopped living up to their idea of how
she should act. If friendship is that easily turned off, it wasn't real
friendship to begin with.
Real friendship has nothing to do with what guys mean when you find out
about Crystal and they say, "can we still be friends?" Usually that just
means, "will you act friendly towards me so I won't have to think about
what a shit I am?"
On an entirely different subject, why is all the tour information being
posted to this list? The list of dates was in the last digest *twice*.
There *is* a ToriTour list, after all, and I'm sure most people here are
on it. Does the information have to be posted in both places?
As B/4,
John

Subject: 2003 tour news
for those who do not check the dent religiously, mikewhy has some exclusive
quotes from an interview tori did for a german magazine (not sure which
one, but mike indicates that the source is reliable). the quotes confirm
that tori will be doing more shows around north american following the new
year and then move on to europe in feburary or march. she also drops hints
of shows in australia and other parts of the word but did not elaborate on
what that might entail.

Yesterday I sat in the library on the computer wanting to write my thoughts
to you peeps but of course the bell rings while I'm in the middle of my
thoughts to you all. As I sit at the computer, I'm listening to the Little
Earthquakes album...replaying "Precious Things" like crazy...that song is
wonderful. It reminds me of 7th grade, just like Tori sings about "7th
grade, running after Billy, running after the rain" I pull my chair in
closer and get old gum on my hand from under the chair...shit, some people
are just sick!
In my Spanish class I see my new friend, Jamie. She's so cool and creative.
Her clothes are so unique and bright. She makes a lot of her
clothes...that's so cool...she's also a musician (guitarist). I eat lunch
with her and her friends and they barely notice I'm alive. I know they
aren't trying to ignore me, but they don't know me that well and I guess
that don't want to ask me anything. Soon the ice will break...I hope soon
though.
So, you know how I was talking about the really cool guy in my guided study
class that's really nice and good looking, etc. Well, I was waiting for a
few more flaws and I found one very big one. He used the word "faggot".
First David, the "I'm Not In Love" guy, and now Lonell. The only thing is,
Lonell didn't mean it like he was dissing a gay guy...he said it as like he
was saying, Stupid, or something like that...but there is absolutely no
excuse to use that word in any other context when you know what it means.
No one should ever use that word unless they are using it to make a point-a
good cause, proving how bad it is.
Well of course in cooking class I wash and dry the dishes again because
that's my job. I will never learn how to cook if I never do it...I feel
that I do want to only do the dishes sometimes, and sometimes I want bigger
jobs...I feel like if I get a bigger job I'll mess it up, and I feel like if
I only do the dishes I will fail the class. I'm so confused. Whenever I
even try to help, they just do it because they don't even give me a chance.
Just because I'm 4'10 does not mean they can walk over me!
In English we're working on a tablo...I'm nervous for the performance on
Monday. It's not that big of a performance, but I'm still nervous. We had
project a while ago where we wrote an essay about someone else in the class
after they filled out a paper about themselves and put a fake name on it. I
wanted to know what someone wrote about me (my fake name was Li'l Rose) and
I asked the teacher if I could read it and she said that since the guy who
wrote it about me is gone she'd let me...I did and I almost cried because it
was so sweet! I wanna ask me if I can have it, but I'm a little intimidated
by him, but I'm still gonna ask.
Last night I had my friend Dan over and we had a blast just laughing and
watching movies, etc.
Right now I'm just chillin' on the computer with a sore back listening to
"Sugar" by Tori while having a T-shirt on that says SUGAR...lol

Subject: then put your little hand in mine, ain't no hill or mountain we
can't climb...
today the greeks decided to hold their "run-out" thing, and not only was my
hall clogged with screaming girls, but right outside my window groups of
sorority girls and frat boys were running around and screaming. oy. now
they're having "wingfest," and some bad bands are playing outside and i've
been in all day. tomorrow it will be quieter.
cyndi:
>then the retro mentioned body hair.. um.. speaking of body hair.. what in
>the world is the point of pubic hair???
probably to keep that area warm. what i'm wondering is WHY the heck we have
armpit hair!
>nothin' on THIS body is airbrushed or tucked or nipped
>or any of that! :D hell yeah!
you sexy bitch! *sings* you make me feel like a natural woman (WOMAN)...
*whimper* tori isn't coming to visit us in PA! and i'm a poor college kid
with no transportation, so i can't go see her elsewhere... *pounds desk in
frustration*
megan: stalkerboy alex is a very confused person indeed. he doesn't know
what the heck he wants. he also needs to learn how to deal with girls. you
can keep being friends with him and stuff, but if he starts putting the
moves on, feel free to tell him to fuck off. good response email.
you're not a big pussy. a few days ago you claimed to be a giant walking
ass. make up your mind, are you a pussy girl or an ass girl? ok, i'm
cracking myself up now, and this imagery is really getting to me... anyway,
give him ONE chance. if he keeps trying to hit on you while he has a
girlfriend and keeps on lying and being an ass, feel free to just get up and
leave, kicking him in the balls on the way out. if he shapes up and is
honest, good. you have a friend. just don't get too attached. when you're
attached to someone, they have more power to hurt you. there's nothing
wrong with you at all. it's alex that's the problem.
well... dinnertime i guess, and if i can pry myself away from the computer
(and the damn band outside shuts up), i'll do some homework. yippee.
