> I can say with little doubt that this week, from last Thursday to the present (almost a week in total) has been quite possibly the worst week in my life. Let me vent for two seconds.

Vent away, if it helps, Darien : )

> It all comes down to judgement. I misjudged someone completely - I took her to be my best friend, and she turned out to care very little for me. That happened a week ago, and I resolved the situation last night. So it's upward bound from here, I guess.

Good attitude you show there, Darien! : ) Indeed, the only place to go is up. I'm sorry that this happened to you. Interestingly enough, I had a similar experience last night. Not with my best firned, but a friend no less - or so I'd thought - who has been manipulating myself and another individual to suit their own selfish agenda ... Very disappointing thing to discover ... Hope you work through your situation, Darien, truly I do.

> Why am I telling you all this? I'm bored. I'm trying to stimulate conversation. I just want to tell someone. Pick an answer - or make up one of your own.

Why are you tellin us? Hmm ... can i select an answer not given above? I'd guess that you're hurt and want someone to talk to about this and it's probably easy to post it up on a message board, to a collection of strangers you most likely will never meet face-to-face, and who (obviously) aren't involved in the problem ... but whatever the answer, it's good that you did post it up : )

> So how has everyone else been?

Well, all things considered ... fine : ) thanks for asking.
