What is it with needy people anyway?
[Read the article: My best friend has let me down for the last time]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]I just read "My best friend has let me down for the last time" and boy can I relate. In my case it wasn't a friend but the love of my life. We were together for almost six years. I did all I could for her and received only betrayal in response. I bent over backwards to establish a future together, only to have her throw it all away like garbage. She calls me to this day insisting that she loves me, wants to have children with me, etc... But it's all a bunch of bullshit. She has always seemed SO sincere too - I kept going back for more, hoping that 'this time' she would back her words with actions. It never came to pass. I'm still extremely angry and bitter about it, still seeking a way to let it all go so that I can get on with my life. It's just that she destroyed so much... I lost my house and my retirement savings because I trusted her, again and again. Now she doesn't understand why I resent her so much - in her mind, it's as if she has done no wrong! I've read that 'needy' people oh so often destroy relationships so that they can remain needy. Do you have any information about these needy people Cary? Needy people (at least the one I'm referring to) are INCREDIBLY selfish - A few years ago I gave PBS a donation of $365. It was the first time I donated to them (the first time I could too, lol). I had learned to read watching PBS and I had watched them for over 30 years at that point, it was the least I could do. As soon as she found out, she became angry and yelled at me, 'you could have spent that money on me!'. And so it goes... The thing that bothers me most is that I feel like I may never be able to trust anyone ever again. What a sad thing to say, it breaks my heart. Any advice for me, Cary? Any advice for all of us that have suffered at the hands of these needy people? I know I could really use some - I'm not sure I can get over this and I am being overwhelmed with resentment. It's too much to accept right now... Anyway, thank you.
Best regards,
Danny

give up on the damned dems already
[Read the article: Jolting Joe]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]There is no difference between the 'parties'. It's over. Make that realization already...

Is Bayh talking about US or THEM?
[Read the article: Out-hawking Bush on Iran]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]"We're talking about nuclear weapons in the hands of a state that aids and abets terrorism, with an apocalyptic and unstable leader who is also deeply hostile to us."
Sounds like Rumsfeld (glad-handing Saddam) and Bush (apocalyptic and unstable leader who is also deeply hostile).
And people wonder why others won't vote democrat. Just who are the Dems representing?

People are so damn fickle
[Read the article: Opus]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]I just can't see what the big deal is about this strip, it's hardly shocking in any way. Whomever gets offended by this stuff ought to have real problems.
