		<description>Sorry to be cynical. Ok, how about this: &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;There&#039;s always Do-Right. Dudely Do-Right. Constable Dudely Do-Right. Constable Dudely Do-Right of the Royal Canadian Mounties. &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Where ever Snydely Whiplash lurks, you can bet there&#039;s ....&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Ok. This boy has far too much time on his hands.</description>

<p>that said,<br />it is easy for me to say that<br />even though i know that i am very<br />similiar in the picking the pimple<br />til it pops analogy&#8230;it literally<br />drove my first boyfriend around <br />the bend (however, in hindsight,<br />i realize he didn&#8217;t have far to go)<br />(heh heh)</p>
<p>go easy on yourself&#8230;there<br />is only so much you can do<br />and so much that is in your realm<br />of control or choice&#8230;the<br />rest is then left to the other <br />person.</p>

		<description>SM - you have done the best you could. Maybe I&#039;m a pushover, but a sincere, contrite apology resonates with me in a way that makes it impossible not to forgive. You are so clearly sorry. You so clearly would not do it again, will not do it again. You are so obviously trustworthy. I can&#039;t imagine someone withholding forgiveness, not allowing your relationship to start again. Please step back and wonder about these things yourself, when you can. Maybe it will make the break easier to bear when you see that you are dealing with a person who is determined to hold a grudge. You are getting all the hell you will get from this situation in the here and now. Do not fear. More is not coming.</description>

		<description>you aren&#039;t going to hell...&lt;br/&gt;hell doesn&#039;t make any sense.  you are simply experiencing the consequences--and experiencing them as a chastened and gracious person.  Don&#039;t fret.  the goo will not get you; when we feel remorse, we have learned from our mistakes.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;anyway, i don&#039;t know what I&#039;m talking about. don&#039;t take advice from a stressed out and hungry bride-to-be.  I want to eat the whole country.  Really.</description>

		<description>I am the same way. There are nights I cannot sleep because I recall the music from The Shining, and then, every bump I the night has me afraid of &quot;the thing in the night which I cannot see, but wants to cause me harm and which is impervious to all logic and universal laws of the universe.&quot; There are moments when confronted with a stony silence when I will admit to every atrocity known to man if only I can make the silence end. And every time something bad happens, I know I am going to hell.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;I am frustrated with your friend because I can&#039;t believe she is being so unyielding in her pain and anger. I wonder if she is playing up her woundedness, if she has found the opportunity to be the victim, to be the wronged party. I wonder what crimes she has committed against you, against others, which she is choosing to ignore as she revels in her victim status.</description>

		<description>I totally get it. I obsess at times and especially when it comes to friends. It so sucks that the friend is not getting what blogging is and take it at face value, as therapy and venting.</description>
