You asked me to tell you what's going on, and although I would've liked to tell you in person, I thought if I wrote it all down nothing would be forgotten and I wouldn't be swayed by what you had to say. I don't want you to take this as me trying to hurt you, this is me telling you exactly what's been going on to hopefully give you some closure. I am going to be brutely honest, I feel used, manipulated, and taken advantage of. I can tell you where it all originated, it was our double date. From there it has been a constant downward spiral. I've been told for awhile that our relationship is toxic because I was always giving and it seemed that you were always taking. I never believed it, because you're my best friend, why would you ever do that. …show more content…
Tommy treats you the way he does because he sees what you've done and how you've made me feel, and he doesn't have a problem showing his hatred. I, on the other hand, am a coward in that aspect because to this day I still try and see it from your side, and I question if it is my fault. I hide how I feel because I don't want to hurt you or cause unwanted drama. You give me nasty looks when Tommy is around, or when I bring Tommy up, yet you tell me that you're happy for me. You put me down, yet you say that you're happy for me. You screamed at me for calling your ex-boyfriend an asshole, after he broke your heart, but have no problem bashing my boyfriend while we're dating, and often doing it right in front of my face. I understand that Tommy does the same thing, I am not condoning what he does, but I expected more from you. It was wrong of me to not stand up for you, but I took his side because I knew he was right. I hear from people, people I'm not even close to, that you are questioning my decision to be with Tommy, and that you don't understand why I love him so much. How can you call yourself my best friend when you say/do the things you
Good evening. I would like to begin by welcoming each and every one of you to this joyous and stressful occasion.
Good evening Ladies and Gentlemen - I must admit, I am more nervous about participating in this wedding than I was as the groom (bridegroom) at my own wedding. Maybe it's because I have been married thirty years and I know what my son is getting himself in to!
Well, good afternoon everyone, for those of you that don?t know me my name is Lee and I?m Janie?s dad, and in keeping with tradition, it is my honor and privilege to deliver the ?Father of the Bride Speech?. Having to make this speech is one of the few opportunities in a married man?s life when he is allowed to do all of the talking...and I intend to make the most of it.
Humorous Wedding Speech by the Best Man When Daniel came to me and asked me to be his best man, it was a great honour but, when I looked at all the duties required of me, I felt he’d be better off choosing someone else. Then he offered me a fifty, but I told him that it wasn’t a decision that money could change. So then he offered me a hundred. Anyway, good evening Ladies and Gentlemen - My name is Rob and it’s my pleasure to be Daniel’s best man today.
He would try to start fights with me by dangling Enzo in front of me on purpose by sitting on his lap whenever I entered a room and playing with his hair while glaring at me. To get a real reaction out of me he started talking badly about me behind my back and accusing me of being a backstabber and a home wrecker. As a blunt, I often speak my mind, regardless of the consequences. I retaliated by flirting back with Enzo because I knew it would bother his boyfriend, which in hindsight, it was probably a best part of the summer. It ended my friendship with they guy because he and I are complete opposites, but it’s alright because he was honestly the blandest person I ever met. With the end of our friendship it resulted with Enzo and I having an even more complicated relationship as our group of friends were forced to take sides, slowly causing us to grow apart to the point where we would be almost reluctant to hang out with each other. The most frustrating part of the situation is when Jose and I would argue about something, even though Enzo knew that I was right and didn’t start it, he would take Jose’s side because they were a “couple”. I confronted a mutual friend about the situation because I wanted to know if she really did set Enzo and his boyfriend regardless of knowing that I liked Enzo. We had a huge argument and she called the boyfriend and put him on speaker while I was in the
I never fully grasped the idea of how addiction is a disease, so there has honestly been so many times when I thought I hated him. I would get so upset with him for doing things that were out of his control; stealing from us, causing us so much grief and sadness, and emotionally scarring me. I put up the thickest and strongest walls around myself so that he would not hurt me any more. I was so selfish; I blocked him out so that I wouldn’t get hurt, instead of being there to help him. I held a grudge for so long. Till the last day I saw him, I held a grudge for stressing mom and dad out, for not being the big brother that I wanted him to be, for choosing the drugs when I needed him to choose his
But every time he would come back to visit we would reminisce of all the times we fought and it would only make us laugh. The last time I saw him was at his wedding last year and sure enough one of our conversations was a story about when we fought. Looking back at it, our back and forth revenge only caused our relationship to strengthen over time. I think relationships can go either way, they can either cause a relationship to become stronger or it can cause a relationship to be
Good afternoon Ladies and Gentlemen - My name is Steve and this is my partner in crime, Scot. We are the best men today, famed for our double act. Some people may even say we were artists, but I think you'll all realize what kind of artists we are later on this evening.
When I was a freshman in high school I found my first love. My first love and I were in an off- again/on-again relationship for nearly four years. I was so overwhelmed with the attention and so-called love that I did not understand that my honesty and vulnerability was going to be taken advantage of significantly. He would be extremely loving one day and then the next he would be condescending and negative. When I would open up and tell him how I was feeling or why I was upset he would dismiss my feelings or make me feel insecure for even speaking my mind. It took me nearly four years to realize that I should not be defined as someone who should not express what I was feeling just because of an unhealthy relationship. My vulnerability took a tremendous blow and was almost non-existent by the time I was going into my senior year because I was filled with so much shame and hurt. My friendships and perspective relationships began to disintegrate because I fell into the myth of believing that vulnerability could be overcome alone. Over the span of a few months I began to open up again and I ended up finding my second love. We had the most perfect relationship at the very beginning so I began exposing my vulnerability, later I found that this was one of the biggest mistakes I had ever made. Similar to my ex, he began taking advantage of my vulnerability and used it against me to belittle
Well, congratulations to Herman and Connie. I assume that you are now expecting me to have a bit of fun at Herman's expense. Well, the only trouble is, Herman's expenses have been so high today that I’m not sure how much more he can take.
Let me first say that the bridesmaids look absolutely smashing today, and only rightly outshone by our bride, Pamela. And, I'm sure you'll agree with me gentlemen, today is a sad day for single men, as another beauty leaves the available list. And ladies, I'm sure you'll agree that today's passing by without much of a ripple.
I am sorry to inform you, but I cannot take it anymore. You are very possessive and overpowering. I thought that we could work things out but it seems as if you just won't get it together. You are unable to trust me even though i was giving you no reason for you to not trust me. I would like to say “ it's not you, it's me” but it is absolutly you. I thought i meant something to you but you only care about yourself. I will no longer take your abuse. I will refuse to live in fear of someday for you will be too cruel. I am getting tired of your idiotic acts.
...ting to look good and act sweet for our benefit he was trying to prove to the audience which was his friends that he was a good boyfriend and in good with me. I didn’t really understand why he was like this and I don 't think Kaleigh did either but she liked him and was understandable because of that. Me and Kaleigh would look at each other with different eye movements and knew exactly what one was thinking which is a symbolic interaction that we tended to do. When Marc did many interactions that irritated either me or her like acting completely different in front of his friends or when his familiarity got more heavily he would act as if me and Kaleigh were never there and act like the rude type of guy he is. As the night went on me and Kaleigh went home and I decided to make a move and have a talk with her about Marc that i 've been wanting to do for awhile. She told
I used to think that he had to show me all the attention because he was the guy and I was the girl. I also used to be very petty, for example if something bothered me I would not talk to him about it, I didn 't want him thinking that I cared so much, but really I did. I would ignore him and assume he should know what the issue is. Ever since I gave him another shot I told him from the beginning that we need to change certain things in our relationship and a big one was communication. I was never good at communicating or expressing my feelings and neither was he, we would just act immature and play games just to hurt each other. My decision on breaking up with him and also just taking some time to think and be on my own really impacted my behavior and helped me grow mentally. It definitely has changed my attitude, I am still working on myself but I couldn 't be happier with my relationship
How dare you use the words best friend when you don't care for my well being, don't support me in my ventures, and just want to use me for your pleasure. My ex boyfriend was extremely manipulative and utilize labels and endearments in order to quickly form an unhealthy bond and to place
