I have a growing intolerance for self hate. It seems lately all my partners are thinking of deleting for this reason or that reason and saying they feel useless. When I try to cheer them up they just complain more to me. And to be honest I’m sick to death of it. And you want to know why? Because telling me no one cares about you and that you feel worthless while I’m clearly trying to help you just makes me feel like some goddamn doormat! What am I, chopped liver? How dare you say no one cares when I’m right here in front of you? No good deed. And yeah, I know what you’re going to say, they’re hurting and I should be considerate to their feelings and everybody’s a little selfish sometimes. And I get that, and I never say any of this to them. But I’m allowed to be upset.
