At what point in a friendship is it OK to say 'miserable' when they ask you how you're doing?
How can 'I feel abandoned' be made to sound like a statement and not an accusation?

No one's been around. And Katrina hasn't written back to me. And neither has Amanda, who I wrote to at the end of December. And I talked to this girl Mary from CMS, and it was nice, but I got the feeling she wasn't interested in talking to me, and... I just feel alone.
And kind of unwanted.

And the explanation is always the same, because we all mean well but we're all busy, too. And that's understandable. But there's a little voice in the back my head that whispers that I'm just not important enough for anyone to make time for me. The fact is that nobody needs me. And I miss being needed.

Oh come on, I really did need both hands to chop the garlic.

I'd call you more, but I hate using the phone. If it helps, I really really mean to, and I mean it more than I mean to clean my room, too! I do miss you though, it was nice having friends who didn't think that yelling out 'balls' in the middle of a conversation was funny. ::Hugs:: Maybe when I win that free car that can make it up hills easily, I'll drive cross country to see you. If you think that'll take too long, feel free to buy it for me ^^

-smirk- I said it wasn't an accusation. Kind of because I anticipated these sorts of responses. It's not your 'fault' I feel miserable. Truth be told, the blame is more on people who will probabably never see this.

I said that as a joke, actually. I call you, and the next day you feel neglected. This means I get to sit back and laugh at all the people that you're annoyed with, because thanks to that little call of mine, I'm no longer among those ranks.

I'm still getting that new car, right? Remember, I like blue...
