Screw feeling abandoned, I now feel replaced. Did I really mean that little to you, that you can just do that? Fuck. I hate my life. And Calc 1, which is unfortunately part of my life.
I have a new copy of Good Omens and some new Fruits Basket, and somehow this doesn't cheer me up at all -.-

Sometimes, because we're not ready to let go ourselves. Other times, it's because we realize how much we've given up for something that may not have worked out. I mean, there are probably a billion reasons, and all of them are equally nagging- which may be the worst of it, the fact that its always lingering somewhere in the back of your mind. The fact that the feeling dulls with time isn't helpful at all when the wounds are still raw. But what I can tell you, knowing absolutely zilch about what you are referring to in the first place, is this--
People, things, emotions, and memories can never be lost, or abandoned, or replaced. Because, as long as there was even one moment where you held that person or thing dear, or where you felt that emotion or made that memory; then it is with you forever. It happened. And you cannot ever change its effects on you. No person can ever be replaced- not really. Even if one day you love someone, and the next day, you decide you hate them; the fact that you did love them once will always exist. And so I hope you cheer up soon, because you seem like a truly great person; very intelligent, and wonderfully creative.
While that probably wasn't helpful at all, at least you have an excellent book waiting to be read that maybe can take you mind off of things. Neil Gaiman is a God. Might also like - White Oleander (Janet Fitch), Cloud of Sparrows (Takashi Matsuoka), Lolita (Vladimir Nabokov), or A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius (Dave Eggers).

Perhaps if you would like to have cosplay plans, with me or anyone else, you should make some.

And you've kind of killed most of the groups we had going by refusing to acknowledge to existance of one of the main members - I'm working under the assumption that anything involving both you and Mara isn't happening any more. Which is pretty much everying other than my FF7 cosplay, which I have no idea if you were in on or not anyway.

I would have liked to share it with you, but if you've got all sorts of other plans you haven't bothered to share with the rest of us, so be it.

Number two, I'd like to know how it's my loss if I don't do a costume for you that I don't want to do. Because I'll miss the incredible chance to bask in the glory that is cosplaying with you?

If you mean someone else, well, I'd really like to know who.
