And the sad thing is that when people mention me in their journals, my heart gives a little flutter and I read that entry over and over, especially when Im sad.

Its /really/ sad because my existence pretty much hangs on;

a. if other people mention me in their journals.
b. the little red number on facebook
c. @replies on twitter.

Why do I suck so bad? Dx

I usually dont verbalize it beyond the humourous facebook reference.

it's very easy to grab onto that stuff because it's quantifiable, I think. It's much harder to have relationships that actually deal with mutual support and respect and it's hard to come off the need for constant validation of your existence by the outside.

Maybe I really should think about making a closed-membership support community.

Anyway I love you and I'm very glad you're my friend and what I feel for you can't be quantified in terms of replies or @s or little red balloons.

Sage Advice: You're, uh, doing it pretty well, actually.

My IRL friends suck a little, so its nice to be able to say "See, I have friends." then refer to Twitter for proof. Because otherwise its like "See, I have friends" Then refer to my cellphone full of people complaining.

Support comm ftw.
