I hate being lied to.
I hate when someone says they like my shoes and they don't mean it. I hate when someone says they will call me and they don't. I have come to hate the words "I love you" because I have heard them through lies too many times. I really hate being lied to.
I have a friend, who I adore. She's so much fun, she listens to me, she gets my sarcastic, dry humor. She's lying to me. She doesn't know that I know she's lying to me, but she is. She eats, but doesn't ever keep a thing that goes in. I can't stand that she's doing this to herself, but I know from experience that bringing it up to her will only push her away. I've seen it too many times.
I have a friend who I have known for six years now. I can trust her, I can tell her anything. She's random, she's funny and she always knows just what to say to make me feel better. She and her family are all very important people to me. She's lying to me. She knows perfectly well that I know she's lying to me. She knows it's tearing me apart and keeping me from sleeping at night. Drinking has become her number one and she'll give up anyone, hurt anyone to get to it.
These two girls mean a lot to me. I'm at a loss.

One of the hardest lessons to learn in life it that you can't make choices for other people. No matter how much it hurts to watch the people you love suffer because of stupid choices, you can't MAKE them change. You can love them, stand by them, support them and let them know that even if they do things that hurt them, that hurt you, you will always love the person on the inside. Everyone makes bad choices. All you can do is learn from their mistakes and remember the saying, "Love the person, hate the behavior."
Best of luck...
I think WX Ences gave you some good advice. It's hard when people around us are doing things we consider to be unwise. I hope things are going better for you, Alli. Do you have any updates??
By the way, I understand your struggles with purling. I'm still slower purling than I am knitting. Any progress shots yet???
I agree with wx ences.. pretty darn good advice. I have been on both sides of the tale, my dear. I've been the bad and the good guy. I really think it's part of life, but it never hurts to talk to them... tell them how you feel.
Ali, address the issue...it's not fair to have it be keeping you up at night because you are worried about them. You can love them, but not love what they do or the choices they make. It might make you and them better to get it out in the open.
It's been 10 days!!! Where are you? What's going on?
I can't cook either, but i'm making a huge effort because I love good food.
I'm sure you're doing great at knitting. How's the purling coming along?? Any new projects?
