Contact

If you've ready my previous posts you're familiar with the person I call Diana, with whom I had a falling out a few months ago. She has tried a couple of ways to contact me, remind me she's around, in some sick effort to either revive our friendship or just fuck with me. At heart, I think she's sorry and would like for us to be friends again. However, I'm much better off without her drama and histrionics.

So last Sunday we were on our way home from bowling when I got a text message. Imagine my surprise when it was from Diana! Especially because I blocked her from calling or texting me. She made some lame remark about having had dreams about me, and asked how my husband was. I was mostly pissed off that her text message got to me, and determined to find out how she got past the block. I talked with my husband and asked him if he thought I should reply or not, and he said it was up to me. She pretty much derided him, too, when all this shit went down, so I feel she's offended both of us beyond any sort of reconciliation.

I ended up texting her back that she didn't have any reason to know anything about us. This was about 10:30 that night. Now, back when we were friends, she was rarely up past 9:30, always tired and went to bed early. She had to have been waiting for me to respond to her text, because as soon as I sent it, she wrote back. She said she meant no harm, wished us well, blah blah. I didn't send any more messages. I went on the phone company website to find out what happened to the block I'd put on her number, and found that blocks are only good for 90 days, and it had been about a month past that. So I blocked her again. I'll have to remember to go back and re-block her before this happens again.

You know, I'm really past any anger or feeling like I want to fuck with her magickally. The very thought of her just makes me feel weary, from her personal drama and lies. She's got so many violations, from theft to eviction to collection agencies . . I really don't want to get sucked into that. She's got a personality disorder of some kind, she somehow thinks the law shouldn't apply to her because her violations are not one-time things that she learns from. She's been charged repeatedly with things, so the ability to learn from your mistakes is missing in her. I just can't spend any more time with someone who is basically out of touch with the real world.

I have to admit I have little fantasies about running into her at the grocery store or someplace, but that's only so that I can ignore her if she speaks to me (and I'm almost positive she would). I'm not out to hurt anyone's feelings, but being clueless is not my problem. I've made it abundantly clear that I want nothing to do with her. Perhaps having me snub her in person would go a ways to getting that idea through her thick skull.
