I think 90% of my time has been occupied by one person since Thursday night, and by god I need out of here tonight! And most of the time, it was because it was easier than going alone and getting shit for it later. I really need a full day away! Can anyone entertain me this evening?

Aaaaaarrggghh. Reading all of this makes me fret for several reasons.

I have sympathy for you because of the difficult situation that this has put you in, but at the same time I feel sorry for Lorraine [funny how no-one else here actually uses her name....] because I totally understand how she feels.

If I was brave enough, I'd talk to her about how she feels and offer her some advice as to how to get over you [it took me long enough with Ben but things do get better :)], but I think it would be wrong of me to initiate such a conversation. I mean, she probably doesn't even know that I am aware of the current situation. Perhaps you could suggest to Lorraine that I would be the type of person she might want to chat to when she feels down? I'd be more than happy for her to call me.

I dont know. I know you need somewhere to vent but seeing everyone on here talking about Lorraine like this depresses me. I guess I know her better than people here?

Dont get me wrong, I know that people here are offering advice and possible solutions in order to try and help Lorraine, but at the same time, I feel like it's a big secret Lorraine-bashing society :(

*sigh* I knew I was in a funny mood today. Sorry. I'll probably regret this comment tomorrow. *hugs* xx

Surely that's just normal LJ ettiquette? If anyone doesn't know the situation already they (hopefully) won't be able to figure out who is being talked about if her name isn't used.

No, really, it isn't.
I've only met her twice, but she seems nice enough, and, after all, we've all been in the position of being in unrequited love at some point in our lives, so it's not hard to sympathise with the situation.

I suppose my opinion is that it would be less painful for both of them in the long run to just have a clean break and get all the heartache over with in one go rather than carry on with a situation which is clearly stressful for both of them indefinitely.
I've seen situations like this go on for years, and that's not good for anyone.

Don't worry about it! I know what you mean - it's hard to paint a good picture of her that's all!
