The weight on my chest

This is a series of brief "Dear John" letters.

Believe me, I've been needing to unload for quite a while. It's time I do so. Some of these messages might sound harsh. Think what you will.

Dear Flirtatious Fiend,

I like you. I like you a lot. We've grown pretty close lately. I care a lot about your well being. I recognize that you're a very stunning person when it comes to looks and personality, but PLEASE, I'm begging you to give it a rest. We all know you're hot. While I applaud your confidence and forwardness, you're in a serious (not to mention long distance) relationship. Don't you find some of your behavior slightly questionable? If you ask me, you're flirting with danger. You need to look out for yourself better. FYI: trying to make nice with one of the professors/advisors? Yeah, it's real cute. REAL cute. I hope you realize you're dragging yourself into the hell hole you'll find yourself in soon. I tried to warn you. You are actually encouraging any shenanigans that go on from this moment forward. So please, don't come crying to me about an older individual "wanting" you real bad. If you wouldn't have thrown yourself like some loose anchor, none of this would be happening right now. I say this out of complete, utter love. Stop flirting with disaster! Love, a concerned friend. (seriously, I'm deeply worried about the matter)

Dear Relentless Asshole,

I'll be honest. I don't like you. I haven't really liked you from square one. Some how you still haven't figured that out. You know WHY I'm just not to keen on you? The title I gave you pretty much says it all. You're one of the biggest jerks I know. Your behavior not to mention attitude towards women is despicable not to mention pitiful. Really, it's a wonder any female ever talks to you. I don't really know your past with women, but the current situation I've seen you in proves there's a past history. How could you mistreat such a beautiful, fragile girl? How can you even stand to look at yourself? Do you pride yourself in how much of a dick you are towards females? I've got news for you. Your "harmless jokes" towards females aren't funny. Your overly cocky attitude doesn't really help. It's not like you really have the room to brag AT ALL. Some days I really want to just stand up to you and scream it in your face. Get the fuck over yourself. Better yet, get some help. Your actions have been borderline abusive. It's a wonder no brave soul has turned you in yet. Sincerely, A fed up female.

That's the brunt of it. Actually, I think I've officially purged my feelings for one night. In the mean time, I should be working on some homework. This whole venting business proves to be rather time consuming but was absolutely necessary. Better in anonymous writing than not so anonymous confrontations.

Until another day.....
