At least tell me why you hate me so much. I think I may deserve that; something about respect. Because the gross silence is only an indication of hate, nothing more. Tell me why I'm such a bad person, because that's what I'm feeling. If I can't even hold onto a friendship with another guy, then I have to be so ugly and corrupt that I can't/shouldn't even venture for any real friendships or other relationships. That's what I'm feeling. I imagine that you've blocked all my messages, or changed all your contact points, just to ignore me; so this message is in vain. But I still hold out hope that there's something that might make you stop the mocking and derisive laughter -- the jokes you tell your real friends about me and all the shit we did together -- stop the mocking and pick up the phone and just talk. I know you have better friends up there. I know you have good family up there. These things I can't replace. But I keep telling myself...
