Also, Ally is right. I don't think I'm quite over that girl from high school. But by that I mean my mental image of her, not actually the real her. So I'm actually angry at myself.
<insert pretty much any panel of Karkat arguing with himself here>
If I want to have a mature relationship with someone, I have to do something about the self-loathing, just like Karkat will eventually. But how?
squid: I try my best, but I still sometimes feel like I could have handled that relationship better. And I could have...but really, this isn't about her, it's about being comfortable with myself as a person, something I've always had problems with. I'm most comfortable when I'm not thinking about the past, so it's definitely possible, but intrusive thoughts make it difficult sometimes.
Of course, now that I'm actually sleeping properly again, that may be making a difference in my clarity.
I'm not saying that my life is exactly like his -- that would be silly -- but that I have some issues with self-image i need to work out that are similar to his. (Then again, I've gotten myself in trouble for comparing out before, so...) And of course, as adults in the real world, we have therapists and such.
Yes, I understand, but my subconscious keeps bringing it up when it shouldn't be. It happened earlier this year, too, and it still bothers me from time to time because...well, I'm not really sure. Probably because I let my feelings for that one person dominate my life for most of the 1990s and a good chunk of the 2000s as well :P
Same here, and it's more likely that I'll get upset if I'm tired. Also, there's other things I've done that are sort of related, like dumping my whole life story on people in some weird attempt to curry sympathy, and I feel kind of bad for doing that now but at least I know better, right?
Also, it seems like certain points in my past bring up really strong emotions, like they've been embellished to make them much happier than they actually were. I know I wouldn't want to go back to living in an old Victorian with no central heat or A/C, or go back to driving an Oldsmobile with a smashed front end, leaky transmission and broken engine mounts. But dammit, my brain conspires against me. If the music was good and the scenery was relatively pretty, it's Dreamland and the living was easy even when it wasn't. :P

Seriously? I can't see anything.
Also, get over the girl from high school, no good can come of it.
May want to start by not comparing your life to that of a character from a webcomic.
Just a thought.
*unpleasant thoughts solidarity*
Or at all
