Well I'm single once again, after a relationship of about a year. She still wants to be friends, but I'm not going to be able to give her as much support as I have been. I'm tired of getting little to no respect and gratitude for all the times I went out of my way to help her. I'm not sorry I did, just there has to be compromise in a relationship. Apparently she never got that memo. But enough bitching for now. I still want a friendship, but after some of the things she said it might be difficult to accomplish before its time comes, and I'm afraid that she will not be patient enough for me to be able to deal with her on another level. but I'm no oracle. Just a guy who can't be lonely while he is in a relationship. It's bad enough when I'm single and lonely, but that's like adding insult to injury. I have learned a lot from my association with her, but that doesn't make moving on that much easier. maybe it'll be helpful in the future. I guess I'll have to be patient myself to find out.
