im just thinking about a lot of things right now. ive been talking to sara about it, and i know rob doesnt know yet, but im planning to talk to him today. let me start from the beginning.
last friday roxanne and i went to fuel. had a good time, etc. we were dancing, and i turn around, and theres banko standing right there. i was obviously shocked, but i went up to him and we talked for a minute or so, then i suggested going outside for a smoke. so banko went outside, roxanne was looking for her smokes, and rob walked in to come get me. so we went outside to leave, banko was sitting on the step and we just walked past him. roxanne was a little mad that i was leaving, but i had to work in the morning. so we went home, went to bed, and that was it.
so the whole way home i was thinking about it, and i felt really shitty about not even saying goodbye to him. i mean, i know im not obligated to or anything, but i havent seen him in a long time, and i knew rob would be mad and probably a ruckus would have occured, but i still felt bad about it. so monday morning when i was at school i got on myspace and i was going to message banko and appologize for not saying goodbye because i felt way bad about it. he had left me a message like, 'wtf, you cant even say bye to me?!!?' so i sent him one back saying sorry, and i tried to explain that i just didnt want to make rob mad. i dont need to start shit in my own relationship for anyone. so he sent me a message back again, saying that he was sorry that we couldnt be friends because of rob, and everythings robs fault, and whine whine whine. so then i got really mad and sent him one back, because its really all his fault that we cant be friends. i mean, if he could just get over me and not talk shit about my boyfriend, then rob would have no problem with him at all. he doesnt like rob purely because im with him. so i got really mad and sent him a bitchy message about it.
sara and i have been talking about it, and i would honestly love to be able to be friends with banko. hes a good person really, just not in this particular situation. rob would be totally fine with him if he didnt talk shit about him, and if he didnt like me. sara told me that she talked to banko online the other day, and he was saying how he wished we could be friends and everything. she tried to explain to him what im thinking (which is also the logical thinking in this situation), but i guess he wasnt really paying attention, and he was really hurt by friday night. i knew he would be, thats why i appologized...
but anyways, so sara and i were talking about it some more today, and i just tried for the last time. i sent banko a super long message on myspace telling him exactly what i thought, exactly why rob doesnt like him, and how i think things could work. i really tried to explain myself completely, and either he gets it, or he doesnt. if he doesnt, then im really done trying.
i explained to him that rob is the most important thing in my whole life, that hes the man im going to be with for forever. and im not going to risk my whole relationship for anyone... because if banko and i were friends as things stand right now, he would talk shit about rob, and rob would talk shit about him, and that would be miserable for me. why would i choose to be friends with someone when i know that that friendship would be a terrible thing for both my home life and my relationship? so i tried to explain to him that being friends is better than nothing, and if he can just put everything aside and just be my friend, and if he could be civil (at least, they dont have to love eachother) to rob, then maybe things could work. but rob would have to see that... because im not going to hang out with someone if its going to be at risk to mine and robs relationship.
some people might read this and say, 'why the fuck would you tell rob you want to be friends with banko? thats the dumbest thing ever.' well, we went through this at the end of winter, with banko actually. i was talking to him online and not telling rob about it... i was actually talking to him in not a 'just-friends' manner. rob found out, and we got into a huge fight about it. its not that i would have ever considered cheating on rob with banko, or anyone for that matter, but i would have been equally upset if rob were talking to someone else the way i was talking to him. so i understand why he was mad, and i understand i was wrong. thats why, even though i have zero intentions of anything like that and i just want to be friends, im telling him about it. communication is the best thing for a relationship, and i have no plans of fucking this one up.
even if this whole thing does work out, if banko tries one thing, im done. im not interested in anyone else, and im not interested in creating problems in my relationship. it would be nice to be friends with banko, even though im doubtful about this whole thing. yes, it would be nice, but i know my priorities. i know where i stand in my life right now, and i know whats important. it would be fun, but its not worth trading everything else that ive worked so hard on.
so i dont know, that was my vent. im going down to get some food now, i just had to get that all out. i feel better now :)
