-- Sometimes I hate this place?
-- And I feel like such a dick for saying that
-- Because I have a lot of friends here and friends from home
-- I mean, you didn't even get Fabian until recently, so obviously I'm super lucky to have gone so long with having so many of my people here
-- It's not like I have it so much worse than other people
-- Or like I'm the only one who thinks this sucks
-- But yeah
-- Sometimes I kind of hate it
-- And I just wanted to put that out there

	-- This is all really valid to feel. -- I love this place, I really do. It's given me some great new friends and opportunities that I don't know I'd have had back home. -- But that doesn't mean it isn't hard a lot of the time, too. -- It's hard to be separated from loved ones and I'm sorry you're having to feel that at all.

	-- I'm supposed to look out for her -- And I can't do that if I'm here and she's not -- Which is stupid. I know she's got me back home. -- I know I'm being selfish -- Anyway, sorry. I'm just...sad, I guess. -- I know everyone else is, too (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	-- I don't know that you're being selfish, really. -- It's only natural to miss her and want to be there for her. -- Either way, you don't have to be sorry for feeling your feelings. -- Just because everyone is sad doesn't invalidate your being sad. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	— I meant selfish for wanting her to be here where I am — Also how did you get so good at talking through feelings? — Because I’m usually pretty bad at it (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	-- Oh, I know. I don't think that is selfish, either. -- My guardian back home is our school counselor and weirdly good at this kind of thing. -- I think it rubbed off on me a bit out of necessity, because I definitely didn't know how to talk about my feelings before him.

	— Did your guardian become the school counselor, or did your school counselor become your guardian? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	-- He became my guardian, first sort of unofficially, then eventually officially. -- My parents sort of just left me behind in Elmville and he took me in, helped me get on anxiety medication, and just was the first adult to kind of get me? -- He's eccentric, but a really good person.

	— They just…left you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	-- Yeah. It's a long story, but the long and short of it is that my parents are the worst. -- I feel really fortunate to have been kind of taken under the wing of Jawbone, back home, and Caleb, here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	— Well, for what it’s worth — We’re family, too — I promise I won’t leave you on purpose (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	-- I appreciate that a lot. -- And I promise the same. -- I know I left once already, but I came back pretty quick so I'm telling myself it doesn't count. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	-- I'm pretending that never happened. -- At least when you came back, you remembered us? (Reply to this) (Parent)
