Just need to Vent

By Capt.Ahab · Jan 28, 2009 · ·
  1. I suppose every teenager has their drama and I am no exception to that rule. (Though I wish I was drama free. Don't we all?)

    I have been sleeping rather well lately, which is very unusual. My nights are generally restless, and when I wake for school in the morning I want to go back to sleep. But it hasn't been like that the past few days. Instead I wake up ready to go, not tired at all when I got the same amount of sleep as the previous nights. Why would I complain about something that is obviously beneficial? It's the dreams I have. All of them include me and my best friend, (which I openly admit I am in love with. She is a girl) but they don't turn out too well. It is just short of a nightmare.

    The dreams itself and why I have them are easy enough to interpret, and the solution to make them stop is also very simple. The problem is actually doing something to end it. It is a very tense moment for the both of us. My friend is constantly under the stress of homework and others as I just recently found out. I don't believe this tension is purposeful, but it feels that we are no longer best friends. That in itself is heartbreaking. I will admit again that I believe I am going into, if not already, a depression. I'm becoming more distant, which I personally do not mind at all.

    That is the cause of my dreams, the solution is easy, like I said before. All need to confront her and voice my opinion, establish that friendly relationship again. It is easy said than done however and I don't see this conflict being resolved too soon. I manage to build up momentum, and when I approach her, her answers and responses become evasive and I deflate completely. I hate teenage romance. It flat out sucks. But at least I am relieved by getting these thoughts out of my mind. For now I will stick to my philosophy of patience and perseverance. It will all pay off in the end.

    Well, you say that you don't mind growing distant. My advice to you is to simply give in and distance yourself from the situation while you pull yourself out of this depression. This girl is not the solution to your happiness, you are. Just remember that. Spend some time working on things that make you happy not related to her. Then, after you've got a cool head you can approach her for friendship.

    The depression itself shouldn't last long. It isn't my first and won't be my last and I am good at letting it run its course and pass. Writing is definitely helping by bringing my mind off of everything thats happening, so I'll indulge myself in that for awhile. Thanks for the advice, it is appreciated.
