Sometimes we really need to say things anonymously, and spilling them to the empty air feels so pointless that we just don't do it. LJ gets people to post partly out of a feeling of anonymity, but it's not anonymous and people will happily pick a fight over each others' words.
I think the ritual of confession, used properly, did and does something really valuable for people.
If there's anything you want to say, to me or to anyone else, or to the world or the space in your heart that's in pain, I'm inviting you to post it as an ANONYMOUS comment to this post.
Say anything you like. I will only delete comments that are not ANONYMOUS, or that attack other anonymous comments. I will not make any attempt to figure out who posted a comment.

It was idiotic. I'm glad that it didn't wreck our friendship, because I would have missed out on a lot of fun conversations, and many other goofy things I would describe if it wouldn't reveal who this is.
I haven't stayed in touch as well as I'd like, over the last year or two, but I still think about you and hope you're doing well, especially in all the parts of your life that don't make it to your journal here.

Date: 2003-11-18 08:53 am (UTC)In your defense, I was one hell of a tease. I don't even have to make guesses about your identity to be sure that I was pushing for your attention, to prove to myself that I was attractive to everyone in the world.
Here at home I haven't really had the opportunity to do that, so hopefully when I move back to the big city I'll be more conscious of pulling that crap.
