12/7 - What you wish for
Considering today's page: First, let me say how glad I am Rumi was NOT holding the 23 sider of power. Telling Alisin is probably not much better, but at least Alisin might be concerned enough to get Rikk to help. On the other hand, we might see Rumi and Alisin going all out on a romp that ends up with them, a car, a cliff... and lots of Gratuitous Panty Shots (TM)<P>Second: In reference to the title, Jackie wanting Will's presence. Will's presence is a female charachter... well, that's just weird. On the other hand, I'll bet it wouldn't have phased Kath much. She'd prubably have just shrugged and gotten out her fake beard and suit of armor.<P>Third: Is anyone besides me wondering what FIB is doing? FIB may have changed, but not that much.... they'ld be doing SOMETHING besides answering their phone.<P>

She's not the kind of girl to jump from guy to guy. When she enters into a relationship, she wants it to last. Rikk made her feel important, and now she is feeling very lost and alone.<P>Pulling out of this is not going to be easy. When she wakes up tomorow, she will, hopefully, feel somewhat better about herself, though she will feel bad about what she did tonight. If she *ISN'T* over it, and seeks out more ways to hurt herself, she is going to have an even harder time coming out of it.<P>Whatever happens, she will need her friends to be with her.

If she *DOES*, it will probably keep her from going down that road again any time soon. I'm also hoping Rikk will see what's happening, and take her home, staying long enough to make sure that she's alright, but not to long to give her any false hopes which would be crushed by his leaving.<P>Rumi needs to find someone who will treat her with the respect and adoration she deserves, and give her the love and attention she seeks. I'm hoping she finds it soon, before it's too late.<P>~~<P>Wow, that was long. I think I covered everything I wanted to... Damn Rumi's character is starting to hit home even more with this recent development. I know what Rumi is going through, the feelings of issolation, of lonliness from losing a relationship with someone she really cares about before even having had a chance to start it. (I havent gotten to the point where she is yet, but there have been a few times when I've caught myself contemplating going out and getting drunk and just throwing everything away... it scares me sometimes when I start thinking that way... <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/eek.gif"> )<P>... Definitly one of, if not THE, longest posts I've ever made.<P>------------------
"All right, it's instinctive. But the instinct can be fought. We're human beings with the blood of a million savage years on our hands. But we can stop it. We can admit that we're killers but we're not going to kill today. That's all it takes-knowing that we're not going to kill...today. ... Peace or utter destruction-it's up to you." --James T. Kirk
