i don’t think we’ve made may better, that much is for sure
Look I would argue that without you I would not have ended up in that relationship. Just saying
But I’m using this to play friendgroup politics and get like 10,000 sympathy points and having had an IRL relationship of that nature is something off the bucket list so it’s not all bad
is this good or bad
myeh?
I don’t see what’s complicated here
I was told that there were things I wasn’t invited to because nobody wanted me to bring collar person (which I am now invited to) lol
it’s not complicated i just dunno why you’d want that
wtf has everyone hated collar person this whole time
Yeah basically
this is a question not a judgement
It makes me feel powerful, and also it’s nice to be assured that other people will support me when I am suffering
If they’re supporting me when another person they are also friends with (nominally) has offended me in some way then I know that they will in all likelihood also support me when other things go wrong
oh
so you were not telling the truth when you said you don’t want people to pity you
Being overtly pitied is uncomfortable for me in a lot of situations, but most people aren’t doing that, exactly, it’s something else
It’s also substantially easier for me when I feel like I’m allowing them to do it on purpose for my own benefit, hence the whole characterising-it-as-playing-politics-to-get-points
Some fucker is using the entire computing cluster and I don’t get my files to run until 1AM
so you want people to feel bad for you but not treat minor inconveniences majorly sorta way
…and also respect your competence in doing so
can’t say i had “forced someone into a bad relationship” on my life’s bucket list but it’s funny that it happened
Yeah. Like it’s not “holy shit I feel so bad for you I’m so sad” but “holy shit those two are assholes what the hell are they doing”
