He doesn&#8217;t want me as a lover. He doesn&#8217;t want me as a friend. He told me the other night that he has a &#8220;brotherly\/protector&#8221; instinct with me. What the hell am I supposed to do with that? god that&#8217;s even worse than putting me in the friend zone. Did I think I could feel worse about being &#8220;just friends&#8221;? No. No I did not. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But this man, well he found a way! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So&#8230; he&#8217;s my big brother, protecting me. Which is fine??? And wonderful??! I&#8217;ve always wanted a brother, my whole life. And now I have one??? That&#8217;s so great!! So great for me. A big brother. That I&#8217;ve been very very intimate and vulnerable with. That I&#8217;ve shared parts of me with that no one else got. A big brother that I keep embarrassing myself with repeatedly, because I am weak and he turns me into someone I don&#8217;t recognize (or even want to be).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Maybe I need to start considering if I can do this. If I can be <em>just his friend<\/em>. I thought maybe I could., that some of him was better than none of him. but with every new boundary shift and adjustment he makes to our relationship, I end up feeling even more like shit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>How did I, of all people, let myself go this far, this deep? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I am back home tomorrow. And once the weekend comes, I&#8217;m going to figure out what I want. Maybe I need a reading. I need some guidance from the ether. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And I can&#8217;t get it from Marianne now either, because she&#8217;s super mad at me. I don&#8217;t quite know what I did exactly, but maybe that makes it worse? maybe I should know. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I was feeling good at the start of this week but it quickly deteriorated. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Crap it&#8217;s late I need sleep. I hope my head stops hurting. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I can&#8217;t take it! He doesn&#8217;t want me as a lover. He doesn&#8217;t want me as a friend.
