You know when you were little, and there was just so much anticipation for christmas? When did that start disappearing for you?
For me, it was around age 12. It felt like my family started automatically assuming that I wasn’t all that excited about christmas anymore and I was getting too old, which wasn’t true. I remember trying so hard to get them all into decorating the tree together, and it was just so hard to get them all into it. My dad didn’t even help, my sister ended up watching tv and turning off the christmas music, and even though my mom stayed, she didn’t seem too into it.
And it seems like each year, we put up the decorations later and later. Like, oh, we can do that later, I don’t feel like it now.
And then also, I stopped getting all the fun toys. I mean, there weren’t really many toys I wanted, but still, to not have anything to break out of the box and play with kinda sucks.
And then we usually bake cookies and make some hot tea and leave that out with some carrots (for the reindeer), but it seemed like my mom just kinda forgot. And I was like, mom, what about the cookies? And she was like oh, ya, you can make and put them out if you want.
And then I also have stockings for my animals, and that year, my mom had me pick the presents for the animals out at petco and we bought them right there, and then the night of Christmas Eve, she had me put the presents in their stockings, though it would be me finding the presents in the morning.
I just wasn’t ready for Christmas magic to be gone, but it was almost taken away from me.
Ha, sorry, had to get that off my chest….so, what about you? When did it stop?

First, a bit of background: My roommate is Alex. We met in high school when he moved there in 11th grade. We’ve lived together since 1 month after graduation. Jon is my recently-ex-boyfriend. (I am 25, Alex is 26 and Jon is 26) Alex and Jon went to school together before Alex moved to my school. They met back up in college and started hanging out. That’s how I met Jon 4 years ago, through Alex.. Alex and Jon haven’t hung out much since I started dating Jon..
Anyway, a week ago last night I went to Jon’s apartment to surprise him (I had gotten off work early).. I was the one to get the surprise though.. I go inside (I have.. er, had.. a key) and find him making out with some girl on his couch.. We get in an argument and I break up with him. I don’t need that crap in my life..
I’m upset. I go home and Alex is on the couch watching TV.. I just walk into my room and shut my door. He heard me crying when I came in so he came into my room to see what was wrong.. I told him about the whole situation and he gave me a shoulder to cry on.. About 10 minutes later someone knocks on the door and he goes to answer it. Its Jon. He walks into the living room and I can hear their conversation.. Jon asks where I am and Alex just tells him he needs to leave. Jon starts being a smart-a** to Alex, being a jerk and all and Alex starts telling him off.. So they’re arguing and I hear Jon say to Alex something along the lines of "You’ve been pissed at me ever since I started seeing her.. you had your chance with Katy before I came into the picture but you didn’t take it.. I gave you every chance to ask her out before I did.. It isnt my fault you were too big of a p*ssy to act on it.. you need to quit acting like "you’re" her boyfriend.. you had your chance".. then I hear the door slam and I guess Jon has left.. I peek out my door and see Alex sit down on the couch and put his head in his hands.. I didnt go in there.. I just went and took a long shower…. Which got me to thinking.. there were times before I started dating Jon when Alex would do little things that should have let me know he cared more about me than I thought.. One time I was sick and he made me breakfast in bed, and he would watch movies in the living room floor with me that he couldn’t stand. We got so close for about two months but then Jon asked me out and we started drifting apart.. Since the night Jon came over last week, he has avoided the subject of Jon and relationships all together.. He wont even let me hug him now, when a week and a half ago we were wrestling in the floor together..
What is this recent change in his attitude from?? He knows I could hear their argument in the living room cause my door was still open.. I dont know how to bring it up without making him uncomfortable.. What do you think I should do??
And by the way, had I known what his intentions were back then, I almost guarantee I would have ended up with him instead of Jon.. I’ve always had a thing for him that no one has known about..

Me… this is a tough one to write because of two conflicting parts of me. I am over critical of myself, and I am also to prideful to admit when something really is wrong and I need help dealing with something. Two completely different mindsets colliding inside of my head, making things so hard to comprehend and explain to myself. I am a very compassionate person. I love to let someone I care about know exactly how much I love them numerous times per day. I am a person who needs to be told that they are cared about. I need that affirmation of love in my life in return from those that I love. I thrive on recognition… letting me know that I am appreciated in the things I do and the sacrifices I make on a daily basis. I am a romantic… I like the sweet nothings that can be given throughout the day… little notes in my work bag saying I love you, terms of endearment that are said any random time, in any random place. Quality time spent alone just talking about nothing, or holding one another under a blanket watching TV or a movie. That is who I am. That is who I have always been. I am by no means perfect. I have my share of faults as well. I get jealous very easily. I always assume the worst possible scenario with a situation. I over react to what should be a dead issue. I am too persistent in getting answers. I thought my wife was cheating on me because she was spending more time with another man at his house than she was with me, when all she was doing was playing video games and laundry. All that arises because she is so emotionally separated from me. All my jealousy and accusations come from that one thing that I hate about her. I want to have a wife to talk to. I want to have a wife that will talk to me about problems. Someone who feels so emotionally attached to me that she is comfortable talking to me about everything, whether she is in the mood or not. I do not believe that there is a proper mood for talking about a marriage. I am overprotective. I have found something that I hold more dear to me than life itself, and I do not want to lose it to anything or anyone. When she goes out to this guys house to spend time with him and hang out, and I am neither invited or thought of, I begin to do anything I can to protect what I have fought so hard for so long to retain… a relationship with the one person I love. My first step seems to always be the wrong one. I accuse her of fucking around on me with him. This obviously pisses her off and drives her further away from me emotionally. That is just the first thing that I think of. I just do not understand why I could not even ever be invited over with her to his house. See… here I go again and I am just typing things out here. I have asked her directly, and I pray that she was truthful, because I gave her my trust and believed her when she told me that she has never done anything with this man. I just have to figure out how to get the remaining thought out of my head forever so I do not accuse her again. I remember all too well the pain I felt when I was cheated on one time before. The pain was unbearable, and I contemplated many things that I am glad I never acted upon back then. I was naïve and stupid back then. I could not bear the pain to find out that Trina has cheated on me. I know also that I can not accuse her again, because if I keep thinking that she is doing something, then why not go ahead and do what I am accusing her of. I am creating my own demise here. I am digging my own grave… I have to figure out how to put the dirt back into that hole and seal it off for good. I need her assistance in doing this though. I need that reassurance from her that she truly feels that I am the one man for her, and that she would never do that to me. I need that affirmation and those terms of endearment to help me get over my childish behavior. Problem is that if I ask for it, she will assume that I am again accusing her, when I am not. I have to figure out the exact and perfect way to talk to her. When I have tried to just come straight out and talk, she gets very defensive and begins to assume that I am accusing her again, when I truly am not. I don’t know what to say, or how to say it. I don’t know what to do to try to get her to fall back in love with me. I am willing to do anything at this point. If she asked me to take my own life for her, I would gladly do it… I am just so lost and confused right now without her with me anymore.
