Crazy psycho Catholic girls!

On another note, I've recently been communicating with a uber-conservative Catholic girl I knew back in highschool. She and I were friends in my brief highschool stint in Kansas (coincidentally when I was an uber-conservative Lutheran). We mainly ate lunch together and would catch the occassional movie. Anyways, about a month ago she wrote me an out-of-the-blue e-mail. Apparently she's been in love with me ever since I left Kansas, and has been telling her friends and family about this wonderful guy she wants to spend her life with. Not only that, she's been holding out for me this entire time. This is over a 7 year span! She was upset that I don't keep in particularly good touch with her, and wants to know what the deal is. Anyways, I had to tell her the truth: sweetheart, I'm gay. This did not go over particularly well, and has started a somewhat humerous but sad e-mail exchange.

Some actual excerpts from her e-mails:

" I want to know why, after your last email in July, you didn't try to call or email me once. I didn't respond because I needed this year to learn about myself and to work some things out." (in other words, it's totally alright for her to flake out, but inexusable for me)

"I did have feelings for you but I'm not sure if I still do."
(then why didn't she say anything for 7 years???)

"It seems like we both have changed so much and we're further apart than ever."
(yes, people do change over time, especially 7 years... what does she expect???)

"I'm in total shock. I can't even express right now what I'm feeling, yet I have so many
thoughts and questions. (It's a good thing you told me this by email instead of on the phone or in person. It wouldn't have been a pretty sight.)"
(ok, so I'm REALLY glad I didn't tell her over the phone or by person)

"You've hurt me though."
(by being gay, or by not falling in love with her?)

Now comes the real gold:

"How could you keep it from me all this time? I feel lied to and betrayed."
(lied to and betrayed? this coming from the girl that didn't tell me her feelings this entire time)

"We've gone through so much together."
(what??? we were friends for one year of high school; the extent of our friendship was eating lunch together and going to a couple movies)

"I thought I could trust you. How can I even trust you now?"
(for fuck's sake, when was trust ever an issue here?)

"You know I'm strongly against such a lifestyle, and I am not going to accept it."
(ok, so she's a biggot)

"Ideally, I would like to still be friends. I care about you and think about you everyday."
(wow, she's totally obsessed with me!)

"It will be difficult, if not impossible for me to not think about your lifestyle. I wish I could get past it but it's just always going to be there."
(tough luck!)

"I don't like how our friendship has always been off and on. In my mind, friends talk maybe once a week-over the phone or by email."
(huh??? if I talked to all my friends that often, I'd never get anything else done!)

"Maybe we should just let the friendship go and move on. It hurts me to be going through this."
(then maybe she should stop being a crazy bitch, and pull her head out of her fucking ass!)

I had no idea I had this effect on anyone! Wow! It makes me sad because 7 years is a long time for someone to not get laid!

  • that's awesome and hilarious. Can you post the entire email conversation? I'd like to see the buildup and everything.

    Ah, Christians...

  • Tell her that if she cuts her hair really short and dresses like a boy then you'll consider calling her.

    And yes 7 years is a long time - it's like this one girl that wondered why I didn't contact her or try to go out with her after she sent me photos via MSN (in a zip file) of her slit wrists. Hmmmm I *wonder* why.

    Not.

    Somehow I often get the weird ones falling for me. Or maybe just the weird ones made it obvious enough for me to notice.

  • blight, what?

    again, what?

    What are you doing on the internet? Getting girls to fall in love with you, then slit their wrists?

  • Ahhh the aftermath of LavaLife I tell you... I have some stories and 80% of them (4/5) were pretty wonky.

    This was after a girl I had met on a date (who said she "never had a boyfriend before") proceeded to tell me about her *current boyfriend* as we were having supper.

    Ok then.

    Anyway, I think it was stress with that guy that got her to do the wrist thing, she just wanted to share with me I guess?

    But guess what now they're broken up and he wasn't a real boyfriend anyway so I have a chance!

  • I'm not sure if girls are just naturally crazy or if the Internet takes things up a notch.

    Anyways, props on the email. Is that the girl that you went to grad with?

  • Cibbuano: I can post it. The rest of it isn't interesting, but no problem.

    Blight: If she dresses like that wouldn't that make her a lesbian? I don't want that!

    Derelict: No, the girl I went to prom with was a crazy 7-Day Adventist, who are crazy in their own right.

  • damn, stevo, looks like you're a chick magnet to the jesus-girls.

    So, are you still hardcorish-Lutheran?

  • No some women are gay men in women's bodies. They prefer to dress boy-ish and engage in non-vaginal intercourse.

  • Sorry to interrupt this sausage party with a female perspective, but I just wanted to say-

    It's a good thing your gay.

    Bitches ain't nuthin' but trouble.

  • Haven't been a Lutheran in a long time. Since I moved to Kansas.

    Yeah, I don't know what it is about the religious girls. They just think I'm wholesome.

    By Blogger Even Stephen, at 3:42 AM  

  • And you just think they're holesome... er.. sorry I had to.

    By Blogger Blight, at 6:46 PM  

  • tee, thanks for giving us the insight on the bitches.

    Stevo, you should hook up with that christian girl and take her to one of those gay saunas. 'See, honey? Isn't it comfortable?'
