overreacting?
Nov. 9th, 2008 01:12 amDon't really know if being terribly disappointed in someone in this situation is justified.
I am though, nevertheless.
So there's this person I like, a lot. I'm considering her a close friend (and there's only a handful of people I call that), and I've looked up to her for being consistent, for being the kind of person who finishes what she starts, who has a viewpoint and attitude and sticks to it no matter what. Strong personality, confident. You know, someone you can rely one, who won't betray you.
And then she decides, on a whim, to restart smoking.
I mean, besides that I think it's disgusting, what kind of person spends a lot of time, effort and energy to quit smoking, and then a few years later, starts again, just because? Is that the kind of person I described in the paragraph above? I don't think so.
So now I'm feeling disappointed, let down, betrayed. Just because this tiny little smoking thing puts her in such a different light ...
