just read my last post and it was during when i wrote an essay... guess what? i'm writing an essay (more like two... but ill work on the other one tomorrow).
i'm stressed i have two midterms on thursday and two essays due on that day plus a French oral examen on friday.
boyfriend just turned in his thesis, came back and he says he needs a bit more revision super cooL! he's almost done yay!
so these few weeks has been... stressful... one might be able to compare it to pregnancy but not that bad.
Boyfriend stressing out --> me freaking out = wife's pregnant condition causing mood swings --> husband stressing and freaking out...
sort of, so i was super excited he finished!! because he'll have more time to relax and have fun AND ill be able to chill and relax! but... guess again!! he says he'll be done for sure after spring break... fuck.
so this sounds really selfish, but let me throw out some facts:
1. i am super psyched about him finishing, because he worked super hard and long on this paper and he basically poured his heart and life in this.
but the thing is i've been spending all my time with him making sure he's alright and offering him 24/7 support (to the best of my ability)... my question now (after the craziness subside a little) is ... what about me? i have midterms and essays and finals week...
fact 2: i haven't been prioritizing correctly
so i accept some of me slacking on me, but i would like some physical support. the general topics of discussion is about him and his paper... and sometimes me when i'm really quiet and he realize that i havent talked... but mostly him. i mean he has way more to talk about but... HELLO~!!!
today's "problem":
1. he overreacted when i said i was going to walk my ex/friend to our class. i was sort of angry because his tone of voice was close to angry when he told me that "you can either leave or follow me" (of course i followed him)...
talked to my friend about it, he told me to keep my head up and that my boyfriend was totally stress and i shouldn't be thinking of myself like that. so i went to class with a more positive view and i was excited to see my boyfriend and see how he does with his thesis.
2. i decided to leave class early and surprise him outside his building after he met with his professor about his paper. (so i can congratulate him on his success or comfort him) he came out late so i took out my netbook and worked on my paper, he then came out of the elevator talking to his friends, and he was like "BABE!" (in a curt voice) i saved my work, putting my netbook to hibernate [insert shh-ing/whistling noise] ... wtf? "BABE come on!" i put my stuff away, while i'm putting my stuff away, one of his friends comment on how he called me like a dog to come to him. and boyfriend replied "what? she wasn't coming!" (EXCUSE ME BITCH?!) so i got up and followed him out being a few steps behind... while he keeps talking to his friends. (no acknowledgement: kiss/hugs/"hey! how are you?" etc) ... walking... all excitement about surprising him, jumping on him, and showering him with kisses = dead and gone.
3. poker night! which is good because i tend to write my paper during that time and work on my study guide. beginning half of poker i finished my study guide with my friend at the library. i went home and started my paper, 1/4 into it he called me and told me he lost and that when will i come over and say hi. (because i told him i was busy so hi was shorter than hanging out...) ... wait you want me to stop my essay and come over and say hi then go home...
side story: when i asked if he could take me to school or do something with me for a bit he would be like, "sorry babe i can't just stop in the middle of the paper and go back into it..." or "that's silly [insert words saying that it's a waste of time to leave in the middle and come back]"
so why would he tell me to... wtf! well i told him no (because i really need to work on it) he says oh well when you're done come over! ... (but i always come over to your house when you're working on your paper and i'll just go upstairs and wait for you... maybe fall asleep but i'll still be upstairs, on call, in case you need support)
so you're done with your thesis sort of, and... where's my support? i know a thesis > essay but still... why can't you come over and sleep here? i need help with my essay and you know more than i do... so i would actually call on your help. where are you? at home, drinking with your buddies... yup but that's alright because you haven't really socialized with your friends much. BUT STILL!!!!
... so i was trying to write my essay with all these thoughts in my head and i couldnt do anything so i did it... i grabbed my jacket went outside and had a cigarette. totally cleared my mind and i decided that i will go to his house after i'm done with my essay and sleepover there. (which means he wins) but! i will communicate with him about how i felt today.
I WILL TALK TO HIM ABOUT MY FEELINGS !!! instead of keeping it to myself and wishing he read my mind. HE NEEDS TO KNOW. but sometimes a spontaneous visit + hugs and kisses would help... sigh
my friend at the library asked if i love my boyfriend... any other day i would have said yeah! but today i stopped and thought about it... ):
i think it was just the whole day plus the few weeks of freaking out that's getting to me... sigh.
