This makes me sick.

~Oct. 07, 2002~

Alright, I wouldn't normally make a public statement like this, but right now, this is making me a bit ill.

When someone gets what they want, it's really distasteful for them to rub it in the face of the person, or people that are hurt in the process. No idea what I'm talking about? Feel free to find out. First, read Beth's entry. She tells how she and Fenton were together, and than today broke up because he's in love with someone else. Fair enough, and I give him kudos for having the balls to fess up and end it. Too many men wouldn't.

Now, go read Jess's entry about the same thing. Jess is the one that Fenton is in love with. (Sound a bit high schoolish to anyone else?) Well, in this entry, she's an utter bitch about getting what she wants. And personally, I find this disgusting and totally disrespectful. Completely and utterly.

I realize that it's a journal, and as such, is a place to write things down. At the same time, the only reason I can see for this entry is to lash out at those that have "lost", as if they're less than human. And that's sad. People aren't prizes to be won or lost. Nor are the less than human when you've inadvertantly, or intentionally hurt them. Starting a relationship at the expense of another is no reason to gloat. None.

I don't know Lydia, which is one of the people that will read that and be hurt. But, in a round about way, I have talked to her. I do know Beth. I know her fairly well. She's my adopted little sister. Yes, I was one of the people she mentioned having told her not to get involved with Fenton, but this was not the reason I saw as being why not to. It had more to deal with her needing to figure herself out first, enjoy life, and not get serious about someone so quickly. Enjoy dating and find out what she wants and doesn't want.

And I know she's hurting. And I know that this entry is part of it. And that makes me sick.

Do I wish ill towards Jess? No. And if she really makes Fenton happy, and he her, more power to them. I''ve always believe that everyone deserves some happiness. But that doesn't mean that it should be rubbed in the face of those that hurt.
