It's hard to find the words.

... well, what sort of words are you looking for?

[itsybitsyamelia.livejournal.com]

I need explain a few things is all.

[mtrlstc.livejournal.com]

... do you want to talk about it? I know I'm kind of a stranger, but talking to strangers is less frightening than talking to people who know you well enough that they can judge you or some crap. In my experience, at least.

[itsybitsyamelia.livejournal.com]

I think strangers can be pretty judgmental, but I know what you're saying. Um. I don't know, the specifics are pretty complicated. I don't know how to get my point of view across without it sounding like I only care about my point of view...

[mtrlstc.livejournal.com]

Well, that's... I'm not sure I really have any experience with that. I mean, all you can really do is present your side and hope that people realize you're speaking with only the best intentions. Some people will, some people won't. Not much you can do, you know?

[itsybitsyamelia.livejournal.com]

No offense but that's not very encouraging.

[mtrlstc.livejournal.com]

No offense taken, I suck at the whole encouraging thing. At least I'm being realistic?

"Vincent, you're amazing."

Done!

[itsybitsyamelia.livejournal.com]

But that's a given, silly. I don't think it's up for debate or discussion. Short conversation.

[even-stranger.livejournal.com]

Short but satisfying, like my first boyfriend!

So what else are you trying to say?

[itsybitsyamelia.livejournal.com]

I don't think I needed to know that.

I'm sorry. Explain what I was trying to say. And explain what I'm doing now. ...?

[even-stranger.livejournal.com]

It's a fun tidbit about my life!

Hmmmmm. Try writing it down first?

[itsybitsyamelia.livejournal.com]

I've tried. I'm trying. It sounds impersonal.
