Re: Clem/Penny
I don't know this girl's brother much. Talked to him some way back, on account of Shane, but don't know him good. Do know he's negative as Christians, and maybe you shouldn't take his word as law for how Cris feels bout things.
And you're assuming what this man has a need for. You want to meet this girl, you ask to meet this girl. That man's like vinegar. You got to tell him what you want, short and brief, and he gets himself all worked up hard over things.
With that said, if you think you can't do that without hurting, without this eating you from inside out, then you let him be and let him go. Being good to you, that's required for every damn person in your life, and you stand up for yourself and demand it of folks instead of wilting like something scared to say what she deserves.
