So I created an LJ community for folks who like to make things with a sci-fi/fantasy style. I know that there are a lot of specialized crafty-fandom communities out there, but I wanted to do something of a catch-all, for people to post their stuff, share patterns/recipes, and even allow for some free advertising. =)

Feel free to check her out here: http://community.livejournal.com/handmadefandom/ . I already sent out a few invites but feel free to join, even if all you want to do is look. =D

I need to get a picture of the Jayne-hat that I made for Chris to put up. =)

Love,
Crystal

So a friend of mine recently had a nasty experience with a girl who said she "wasn't ready to date" him when he expressed an interest in her. She strung him along for a while, went on some dates with him (even though she "wasn't ready"), and then, a few days ago, told him that she didn't want to continue pursuing their relationship and promptly began DATING (officially as I understand it) another young man.

I kept my mouth shut during most of the fiasco because I wanted to be wrong, but my friend Ron didn't. That's why I love Ron but, I was honestly hoping that it would turn out well for my friend, and it was unfortunate that it didn't.

Something similar happened to him a few years ago actually... he was really into a girl who kept saying that she wasn't ready to date and she wasn't ready to date. He didn't TELL her that he was into her, because, well, she wasn't ready to date. He didn't want to make her feel uncomfortable or pursued when she didn't want to be. After a couple of years (hey, the boy's dedicated) of waiting it out while she went in and out of being "not ready", she started dating another friend of theirs (after she'd said she "wasn't ready"), and he finally gave up the ghost.

I only found out about that one a couple of weeks ago. That girl was me. And I am here to testify...

That it's BULLSHIT.

Oh sure, people say things like that all the time. And we're always trying to figure out the "right way" to do things. We do all the right things. We say all the right things. And in the end? It all comes to bullshit.

Why?

Because there are no right things.

And there are no wrong things.

And so, because I found out about all of this nonsense via Twitter (pretty much all around), my rant tonight takes the form of a Twrant:

Because you need to hear it.  We all do.

We need to know.


Once more with transcript ) for those of you who, like me, can't watch the video at work. ;)
