Just a Needy Emo Boy?
Do you have one of those friends who you hear from every day for a few months, and then all of a sudden they never call or text you? Yeah, that’s Everett right now.
We’re both big fans of House on Fox and we’ve made it a point in the past to get together and watch it on the DVR every now and then. Well he’s recently discovered Gomiso and spends almost all of his time watching movies and commenting on them, which then gets shared on his Facebook.
Anyway, I noticed that Everett had watched House without me. What a dirty cheater! I really don’t mind, but I playfully commented on his Facebook, “You’re cheating on me with Gomiso?!” Later Everett deleted the comment, so I commented, “yeah,” and that too was deleted.
I’m not so sure I know how to feel about this.
I also have this habit of telling everybody goodnight via text. I single-handedly select the people and text them out a personalized goodnight message every night before I go to bed. I hadn’t sent Everett one for a while so I wished him a goodnight and went to soak in the tub for an hour or so. I came back and there was no message, which is typical but after a couple weeks I would expect some kind of response.
I wonder if something’s up, or if I’m just a needy emo boy?
Everett’s Latest Attempt
My life has been a rollercoaster these past few weeks. Let’s start off with Aubrey, she’s been insanely jealous because I hang out with Everett, Rogue, Tai, and other friends. I mean, she gets downright nasty that I’m hanging out with them instead of her. I try and be understanding, that she’s probably in the same shoes I’ve been in quite a few times when she and I are fighting and I have nothing to do but sit at home and be bored. Well, the tables have turned. I really would like to hang out with her more, but it’s just so inconvenient.
Hanging out with Aubrey is inconvenient because she doesn’t live just down the street like Tai, and she doesn’t stop in like Everett. In fact, I can never hangout with Aubrey unless I go to her house, and then it’s usually just chasing her back and forth between going outside so she can smoke or watching her watch a movie with someone else.
Everett threatened suicide again because Jasmine told him that she has feelings for somebody else. So of course that’s the route he takes. This time his friend Tai and I intervened and brought him to her house only to have to chase him down the street hours later because he can’t stand to be away from Jasmine for a breaths sake. I did the only thing I could do at that point. I called his mother.
I met with Aubrey that night at a park for a festival, only to have to leave with Tai shortly after because Jasmine was taking Everett to the hospital claiming that she wasn’t going to do it alone anymore. I rolled my eyes because there isn’t one day she’s had to do it alone.
He kicked his mother out of his hospital room. He wouldn’t even let me in it. He moved in with his Grandma, although I’m sure he’s moved in there about as much as he moved in with me. Just a place to store his crap because regardless of Tai and I explaining to Jasmine that she’s not doing any good by Everett, he’s back at her place with any excuse he can come up with.
This is why Tai has cut all ties with him, and he’s not even speaking to me so I suppose we’re done, too. It’s very sad, that our friendship means so little to him. But really, he’s bipolar—not stupid, and he’s making some really dumb decisions.
