Jun. 2nd, 2002 02:00 amSo in the situation again where I know too much. Someone told me that they were angry at someone else. And I am watching this thing play out like a train wreck on the move screen. Only somehow the movie is virtual reality because one of them just pulled me into it.
Catch-22 damned if I do damned if I don't.
Its not my business to solve this fight or even to say anything about it to the other person. But now I have a choice between lying about something that happened because of this anger held close to the chest.... or telling the truth and being the messenger after all.
Arggghhh... I know that this wasn't done intentionally but I am stuck in the middle.
So here is some blanket advice for the world... I know that you won't follow it because even I don't sometimes but here it goes.... If you are angry with someone... and I mean "I know it won't blow over angry" tell that person ASAP. The reason is the longer you wait the longer it festers... We all know this and we all have done this.
So why the fuck don't we learn? I don't know.
Hmmmm... so what is the answer. I am not sure.
Caveat.... I am not blaming here. we all do this to someone at some point. Its a piece of the shared human experience... I just wish I wasn't experiencing this aspect of it.
