Thanks for not being a friend...

There are some people in this world that no matter what happens in your life, they will never be happy for you, because how dare you have something better then they do.

In my life, I have been given the short end of the stick in many ways. My health has never been the greatest, but I make up for that with a strong mind and a positive attitude. No need to sit around and complain and be depressed about things I can't change. I've been overlooked for a lot of things, I've been made to feel small. And when it comes to love, well, let's just say that's where my worst luck has been. I've had a knack for finding the men who either use me for whatever they can get, or stick with me just because they don't want to be alone, or who are amazing fucktards. I actually sort of resigned myself to the fact that when it comes to love, I will always be alone, and unhappy.

This has been a good week though. I found out a guy I liked for awhile likes me back and now we're together, and I am really happy about the whole thing. I'm not sure what's going to happen with it all, but for right now, I am just enjoying it day to day. Its been a really long time since I had someone actually like me for me and want to be with me because they want to be.

So, naturally, I would think my friends would be happy for me. Apparently, one isn't. A friend I've know for awhile, an online friend, felt the need to try and rain on my parade. I told her about what's been going on this week and how happy I was. Instead of saying she was happy for me, which is really all that needed to be said, she started giving me the third degree. "How do you know this is going to work?", "How do you know you really like him if you live in different states?", "Look at how your last long distance relationship went down, do you really want to do that again?". Oh, and my favorite, "It must be nice, having someone, nobody wants me"

Geez...of course nobody wants you when you so damn negative all the time! Never once have I known this person to be happy about anything! Its as though they live for the drama. And personally, I don't see any reason for there to be drama in anything in life. She made me feel like I didn't deserve this, I should unhappy just like her, so that I could sit at home and bitch about how the world has done me wrong.

I got offline with her quickly, because I didn't need anymore of her comments, and wasn't going to allow her to place a black cloud over my head. Funny how you learn who your true friends are when things are going good for you, and just how much jealously can rear its ugly head. I'm never one to flaunt my good fortunes in people's face, but I'm going to be as happy as I want to be and if it pissed her off even more, well, good. She can have her pity party somewhere else.
