I cant stand being abandoned. I know this is a huge issue for me. And trust me Im trying to deal with it. But why on God's green earth do some people just not get it? Why do they feel they have the right to walk away, walk out of someone's life because its too hard or its just not 'working out' or whatever other lame ass excuse they come up with? Then, to top everything off, why do they feel they can just come walking back in and act as if they never left in the first place? I mean come on. Its just not right. The reason why im ranting and raving about this is because Ive had this happen tons of times to me, probably the cause of my abandonment issues. But anyways, Im getting to my point I promise, a few weeks ago my mom dragged me with her to take her brother David, my technical uncle, errand running. David did some pretty stupid stuff about five years ago or around that long ago. So he hasnt been around in a long time. But I dealt with that, I was getting over everything, dealing with the fact that he didnt want to be around us, and that he messed up his relationship with my mom. But, and here comes the part I cant stand, not him, but rather my mother, decides that it time for me and my sister to 'visit' him. What kind of crap is that? Worse she didnt tell me about it. I had to hear it over a message he left on her machine saying that he couldnt wait to see us and all this crap. I knew my mom had been helping him out lately because he is going through a divorce and everything but why the hell would she include me in this mess. She knows I hate that. But thats not even all of it. We went, bitching the whole way I mind you, but when we saw him he acted as if he were so glad to see us; saying we look good and that we have grown up and stuff. I felt like saying "well no shit Shorlock, maybe if you werent an ass and stayed in our lives you would have watched us grow up." of course I didnt say that, but I sure as hell thought it and thought it hard. So the whole afternoon was just dramatic. I dont know where the whole situation will end up but apparently this weekend my mom wants us to take him and his daughter Jenna to City Walk. Jenna I havent seen since she was like 3 or 4 and now she is 9. I couldnt believe it when he showed me her picture. So I will keep you updated.
