Talking it Out

I reverted to talking to that person that I shouldn't...the person I refer to as The Bane of My Existence. Ever since last June things between us have been complicated. No longer in the 'relationship' aspect of complicated now but in more of a 'we don't know how to act around one another' kind of way. I've essentially become the person he talks to when I can force it out of him--the banality of the words we exchange masking the greater importance of what I'm trying to do. Help.

Issues with one's self are never easy to resolve, especially at times of other changes in one's life. These personal issues, however, become more difficult when one's family history, beliefs, or other situations challenge what should be the socially accepted rights of life.

So I'm just listening. Listening and offering random advice.
