>> I quit my job today.
>> Not to use you like a Dear Diary or anything, just felt like telling someone. ~~Because that doesn't sound~~
>> Just seemed like a good thing. One less thing to worry about right now.
>> Ugh, I'm sorry, I don't mean to come off sounding pathetic.

>> But I have been doing field work for a while now. Charlie took me out a few times before he was sent back. I was scared at first and stayed in the labs. But he convinced me to go out there.
>> Since he was sent back I've pretty much lived at the lab, and I help out in a lot off different departments anyway. So why not throw my hat in?
>> I don't know if I'll get it. But it's just nice to try.
>> Yeah...he is. He's different. He doesn't remember anything and he's just. He's being so nice, Olive. It's hard. I learned to move on and let go of him only to have him come back like this.
>> I don't really know what to do. I'm just trying to help him get settled and let him decide what he wants. Just, you know. Be a friend but sort of distant at the same time.

	>> Thanks! I'll need it. >> Are you still going to school? >> Yeah? Maybe? I don't know. It's really confusing. >> Let's just go with yes. >> I'll be his friend if he wants me around, and once he's settled maybe I'll get out of the way again and just go back to normal.

	>> School? Oh, ya. Well, at least I'm going to try. Without work taking up time I think I can handle this. I might drop one class and pick it up in the summer time. We'll see. >> Gwen, no offense, and if I'm crossing a line saying this, just tell me and I'll drop it, but it sounds like that's what you're trying to convince yourself you want.

	>> OK good. ~~If you dropped that too we would have had to talk~~ >> ...no, you're right. It's just. I successfully let go of him and moved on only to have him come back again. >> And, Olive, he's so nice to me right now and I don't know why. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

>> What's wrong with wanting to see if there could be something there between you two?
>> Just because he was with Kitty before you showed up here doesn't mean he didn't think you were a person worth being with. You just weren't here at the time, and he and Kitty hit it off.
>> People are generally nice to those they like. :P
>> But if he's more than friendly-nice, maybe it's because he wants to be more than friendly with him.
>> You do know he's the one to ask what he means by it.

>> I mean... I know that.
>> But, Olive. I'm going to die again in a more permanent way. Soon after I'm returned, actually. I just...it's easier to emotionally distance myself now rather than later.
>> He doesn't know. I couldn't bring myself to tell him. He looked so upset when he heard about how it was before between us and I just couldn't add more pain to him.
>> It's hard to find a neutral ground right now.
>> I know he is. I guess I'm just going to not force anything and see what happens.
>> If it happens...then it happens. If he finds another, then he finds another.

>> That's a legit concern. I guess, you have to decide if experiencing that happiness with him outweighs the pain of knowing it'll end someday.
>> You know that he's more than likely going to find out about that, even if you never bring it up. Not saying you should definitely tell him. Just, this information just has a way of popping up when you don't want it.
>> Okay, you gotta do what's the best option for you. I respect that, I'll not push you on it. Promise.
