Aw, shit. I never got over child fantasies.

Dude, I fantasized about being on a joint American-Soviet military strike force fighting off an alien invasion. Pretty sure that ain't happening now.
(What? It was the Cold War, my dad was military intel, and I knew my family roots came in part from Russia...perfectly logical.) 



@dhokarena:
Y'know....you could always just say "screw the rules on who i 'can't' date" and date one of them. Even if it just lasts six months, that's better than spending six months with your heart in a blender.

I'd be a horribly, horribly neurotic and terrible boyfriend. Nobody would care if I dated them- this is Brazil- but I just...shouldn't...

Agh.

And the only way you get better at something is practice. I was probably a terrible boyfriend the first 3-4 relationships. But I've gotten better over time (I think), especially as I've learned to not take things too seriously.

Yeah, you're probably right.

I took a nap at around 9 PM trying to sleep, then got woken up by the dog. I still feel very achy, but the despair is gone.

oh god, I can smell sauna wood
oh god
oh god

Edit: I think I have come down with a stomach bug of some sort. This explains much. I hope I don't like...have a fever dream where something horrifying happens to her. That would be traumatizing.

So I created a pair of characters a while ago purely to amuse myself with romantic/fluffy nonsense. Today I realized that one of them is most likely slightly mentally retarded, which would explain her extreme overreactions (e.g. bursting into tears when the seams tore on her favourite jacket - she's 22).

THEN my brain made me compare two situations: where this girl gets into an accident, and her mind reverts to a toddler-like state, and where her girlfriend gets into said accident instead. I realized she'd be completely unable to cope, or understand what's going on.

And then I imagined her sitting hext to her half-braindead girlfriend's hospital bed, holding her hand and just... talking to her. About anything and everything. Maybe starting to cry but not really noticing.

Fuck I hate my imagination.

Ehhhh, there are a few things I can think of that would make me cry if someone destroyed it. My favorite Teddybear for example.

At worst she sounds ditzy or rather someone who doesn't think most of the time.

I forgot to finish that sentence, but I suppose that's also true. But, again, it just seems to fit the character so I'm rolling with it.

Do you write about these characters or what? If they're detailed enough you probably could pretty successfully.

[Zaerosz]

I could write about them but I generally just imagine short snippets of their lives and make notes about them. I could probably write some bits about them, yeah.

I was woken up four hours after I got to sleep for the third day in the row by the construction workers at my house, and I'm starting to act on panic attack logic only. I almost threw the family coffee away this morning.

I have been feeling really bad about myself when I have nothing to do (aka when I'm laying in bed) lately.

[Neonivek]

Has anyone drank enough diet soda that they start to feel intensely ill?

The studying for the test and me intentionally forcing pop down my throat always sucks.

[kaijyuu]

If you're forcing it down your throat anyway, why not water or something else healthy? :|

[Graknorke]

I don't really think it matters what it is, there's a pretty hard limit on how much liquid a person can drink at once.

[Euld]

If you're starting to feel sick, then it's probably a good time to stop.

[Neonivek]

If you're starting to feel sick, then it's probably a good time to stop.

I can't though. I've gone without sleep long enough that I am getting a falling feeling from simple movement and my body is getting numb.

If I stop I'll probably fall asleep or fall into a stupor.
