How good is their vision?

20/20?

An epiphany came to me today, as I struggled to bridge the gap of two pairs of people - both content to shrink into their own personal worlds. I dislike being the leader of a group. It's a lonely position, and the one that requires most sacrifice. Rather than joining one couple over another, and having fun cuddling with the people I enjoy most, I had to share my time, lest the other group becomes jealous or alienated. In the subsequent back and forth walk, my ankle gave out. I found it funny and amusing, though sad. Tearing groups, however, seem like the least of these thoughts.

I suppose, I had felt more like a fifth wheel than anything. The two pairs of people, though all friends in name of relationship, hardly acted like so. Though I can understand it, I cannot help but feel alienated myself. I probably should have removed myself earlier in the evening. The energy to remain happy and positive, and to entertain others, simply was hard to come by. Oh well, I do not think anyone saw this struggle of mine. It seemed like everyone had a good time.

I just have a hope that one day, someone considers my happiness. I hope that one day, someone can see the little things I do and appreciates me for such things. Though, at the moment, I do not believe such people exist. At least not of the female gender. Ah well, one can still hope.

Speaking of courtship, I had found that I actually have pretty high standards for those I wish to consider for a relationship. They'd have to like me for the right reasons for one. For the others, well... I suppose it is improper for me to say it on a site such as this.

At the moment, I find myself wondering a few things, and doubting alot of my previous judgements. I hope I am proven wrong, though that is unlikely.

Which brings me back to the question: How good is their vision to see all that I see, and all that I hide?

If you feel like you have high standards for a relationship, you have to first become someone who meets those standards, yourself. Seems like you felt left out of the two couples? Ask yourself how considerate and attractive you make yourself in a relationship.
Lol, I found your blog on accident while looking for a friend's. It's interesting, and you have a good writing style. Keep it up! :)
And what "previous decisions" (second to last paragraph) are you thinking about? It'd be interesting to see your thought process on them.
