Reel Big Fish - Somebody Hates Me
Wow, so all of a sudden, a person who I'm nothing but a good friend to, hates me. I love how this shit works. I can break my fucking back for this kid, and he can't even bring himself to even tell me to my face. This is how I had to find out.
--Names left out for obvious reasons, but I'm pretty sure people will know who I speak of, sorry buddy. :-( --
So this kid lives with a person I've been friends with since preschool. And two Fridays ago, I dropped by the house (which is pretty usual, I hadn't gone there and visited either of them for a while, so I wanted to) to see if either of them wanted to go out for a bite to eat. I saw both of their cars there, and since I know that both of them drive themselves just about anywhere they go, I figured they'd be home. I rang the doorbell. No answer. I called the house. No answer. I called both their cell phones. One has been disconnected, and the other, no answer. So then I figured, maybe they're asleep, which was a definite possibility, and went to the back door, which happens to have a window in it that allows me to see directly into the basement where they both reside.
I knock on the back door. I knock on the thick ass glass window that creates a sound that can be heard anywhere in the basement. Still... No answer. Then I look in the window, and actually see the one who (now) hates me walking around down there. I don't care who you are, that's balls. Then, I figured oh well, clearly they don't want me around, so I called one more time to make sure I wasn't dead, and still no answer. So I did what every kid my age does after something like that. I went home and went online.
Got home. Got online. Saw that both of them were on (WOW!). Then asked the more mentally stable of the two (the one that has always lived there) what the deal was. He told me that the other was dead. Which is typical of the person I was talking to. Well, either way, I eventually went out to eat with the one that doesn't hate me, we had Culver's and it was yummy, and found out that the other person hates me.
I just would like to say that lately I've been nothing but great to this kid. He had the shittiest week anyone would even imagine for an 18-19 year old kid. The week after, when he decided he wanted to start going to class again, I gave him a ride every day. Not that it's a huge inconvenience for me, but I could have said no. I also give this kid no end of praise for how good his music is. It seriously is good, I wasn't just being nice to him. Now, I wish I had been lying, because then he would feel just like I would. I don't think he understands how it really feels to have no idea why someone hates you.
Maybe he just shruggs it off and doesn't give a shit. Either way, I've tried to be a good friend with him since about 8th Grade. Granted, I've done some stupid shit that has pissed him off, but I've also worked my hardest to make shit better. You can't just shrugg it off when someone who you've known so well for so long just up and starts hating you.
If you have read this. You know who you are, and I don't even have to worry about name dropping, and I hope that no one drops the name in the Comments Department. If you ever want to show me another one of your songs, don't. If you ever want to talk about things, just to vent or whatever, don't. From that Friday and on, I officially don't give a shit about anything you do. And as I'm quite sure you know, that's a little drastic for me. But I don't care. I'll never talk to you again, and you never IM me looking for the musical praise that you want, because I'm done.
It always burns inside when someone you thought you knew turns out completely different in a negative way.
Alright, I'm done bitching. Sorry to everyone that enjoys my happy bloggings, but this one had to be made.
Later.
Kevin.
PS: Oh yeah, and I hope your move goes just as well as your brother's did, how long did he last down there? I can't fucking remember, but I know it wasn't long. Parallel Lives.
