mhm. Sorry to add a more trivial request here..

But anyways....these last few days have been generally on the stressful side. Not totally, but just enough to be rather discouraging. Can deal with that though.

The newest problem is an email I just got, long and rambly and accusatory....from a friend. yup. Apparently there's some issues with our friendship that need worked out. This isnt the first time..it's like, the 4th or something. *sigh* yeaaah...I dread replying to that long email, trying to explain myself yet again when frankly my impatience is getting the better of me. I want to say something horrid and disrespectful and right now i'm in 'could care less' mode, as far as this situation. I normally try to make things work out, but this is just wearing me down. I feel like I"m in the right here, though I assume i've some fault as I usually do. It's just...bleh. Annoying.

anways...not sure this makes sense, but people in general are kinda discouraging lately and this new situation makes me think 'good grief, just shoot me now' LoL. So yeah, prayer that I can adopt a more Christian attitude would be nice..and avoid hurting feelings. so yup....any prayer appreciated. thanks :)

No prayer request is too small for me to pray about. Praying for you and your friend.

I know what you're going through. I've had almost the same thing happen to me with a friend. I wrote a long diatribe on how judgemental and legalistic she was being but thankfully it was deleted before I sent her the email. I just asked her why she was being so mean towards me and examine and pray about her attitude towards me. That really helped more than any rant would. So maybe you could try something like that...I also know what you mean about people seeming stupid...I feel like that all the time. One thing to do is try and remember that we (all people) are made in God's image so it's almost like you're insulting God when you hate people. I'll try and pray for you though.

I know exactly how you feel, Faded One. Things like that can be so troublesome! I'm glad the situation seems to have worked out ok.

:hits_self :bang: :?:

Ok....so, at risk of being annoying I need to update this. The same person is having issues with our friendship again. I just...don't know what to do. I rarely have trouble with people really, but I've been struggling with this friendship for literally months. Sometimes it's great...and sometimes I get questioned to no end about do I care, why don't I show it more, etc.

I REALLY need guidance right now b/c i'm annoyed/stressed to the point of giving up entirely on this relationship and just being like....we don't get along, i'm sorry...goodbye. But there is NO way for me to do this without coming off like a jerk. I've tried, I really have. gah....I've spent a few hours on this in the last couple days and now I have two more emails to reply to(there were already 2 since yesterday morning) and I just don't have that kind of energy.

anyways..i'm ranting/complaining lol sorry. But I figured I needed to ressurect this and plea for some prayer/advice so I don't become the evil anti-Christian bad guy and tell her to go away in an erm...more firm manner. lol. so yeah...thanks.
