Breakup

[raven]

So, one day after I started entertaining fears that I would end up dying alone and be eaten by Alsatians, there comes the break-up. It was the cleanest, most painless and comfortable break-up I have ever had the privilege of taking part in, and the sensible thing to do. We're both going to university so soon, and long distance does not work. Still. She'll always be my best friend, forever. "Don't we sound fifteen years old and American?" she said at that point. I completely agreed, but the sentiment stands. Best friends forever. I think the idea is that neither of us would want to hold the other one back, and if both still single we'll marry each other when we're forty-five.

And it didn't really put a dampener on the day, which was a great deal of fun. We were shopping. I didn't end up buying all that much, but I've got myself an academic diary which I sorely needed, and a pretty purple t-shirt with silver bits. I should have bought shoes and a black skirt, but I still have a withdrawal limit that I need to get rid of. I have an appointment next week to shout at the bank to this effect. Hannah bought a very, very heavy and expensive textbook from Blackwell's, while I peered at the Philosophy books and worried at what I'd got myself into. The diary I eventually bought is bright pink and has a pen included, which looks pink but writes in black. Misrepresentation, dammit.

I have a couple of girl!Doctor snippets to post later tonight, and my Minor Characters fic to finish, and Photoshop to shout at because it will not install onto Loki.

I'm glad we went out today.

I'm sorry about the break up but I am so, *so* glad that you've done it sensibly, rather than letting Uni make you drift apart!

*smiles* It was a good idea to do it now, I think.

Sorry about the breakup, but it does sound like a very sane and sensible one... ::hugs::

[loneraven.livejournal.com]

Aww, thanks for the hugs. :)

*hugs* I'm glad you're all right.

[loneraven.livejournal.com]

*hugs back* Thank you.

*hugs* for the breakup, even if it was painless. But you won't die alone, and you certainly won't be eaten by Alsatians. Now, if you die in a crowd and the lot of you get eaten by rabid hippos, that's something else.

[loneraven.livejournal.com]

I hope not. I actually quite like Alsatians. Don't like hippos, though. *g*

*hugs* You know I'm here if you need to talk. Looking forward to more girl!Doctor snippets.

(You know, I sort of want to write my own, but they'd end up a little too porny, methinks...)

*loves* I'd like to see you again before either of us leaves.

(Please! Embrace the porn! You know I can't write it, but you can, and you do it so well...)

*hugs you* Happy to hear you're okay about it. Long-distance relationships while in college/uni really can be hard.

[loneraven.livejournal.com]

*sigh* Yes, I think they are. Thank you for the hugs.

Sad to hear you broke up but I see you used your usual maturity, and I promise you will not die alone lol your lj friends will come en masse and save you :)

[loneraven.livejournal.com]

That's really touching. Thank you. :)

[biascut.livejournal.com]

Oh, you do do the most civilised breakups. I'm sorry it had to happen, though.

[loneraven.livejournal.com]

Well, I have to be talented at something. :) Thank you.
