Exploits of the Young & Shameless
"...but is it wrong to think oneself a god walking among mere mortals?" Strange question to be asked while standing in a smoky bathroom queue in northern California, the inflection hanging heavy in the air right in front of my cheap beer buzz grin. I examined her discreetly; her features were aged but I knew she was probably no more than forty, mouth puckered 'round the edges from too many cigarettes, too much sordid head-giving. Eyes of frosted gray glass encircled by crow's feet and bags of swollen purple, caked with drugstore foundation. These eyes I looked into as I smiled sincerely and rolled her question around my intoxicated mind.

BESTIES
I CRIED WHEN ONE OF MY MAIN MEN DIED. He was there for me on repeated an predictable moments with an undying known mood. He died and was broadcast over live tv! It has taken a while to get over the "take away," after all, among all my friends he alone knew my common approach... without mistake. I've gone on and gotten past mourning a bit. I've learned other distractions, gotten a few new friends. Hilary beams at me reassuring that descent homes and real estate are, in fact, not a game formulated in my mind. Others have that level of steep imagination still going on even in today's broken world of life well past my own life's affiliation as a realtor. I let him slip away in exchange for brief glimpses at the likes of my past life co-worker, Dave as hestruggles not to drown or struggles not to succomb to gangsters, drug dealers and cranks. Real Estate was so much easier! His recent co-workers don't kow him like I did! (I'm determined NOT to get to caring for him... his wife is touchy.) With all the changes he never reaches his real personality... he does his acting for them... never being real anymore. Friends come and go, keeping their distance to a real business ideal. My besties, best friends who flavor my waking hours with all the affection allowed girl to girl and all the man to platonic female friend sincerity described in any dictionary. Rare to step out of line... except those related ties who could "bongee cord drop" in and zip back out of reach at their own moment's notice to get back on the job. Not OJ but COO J and impromptu meetings for whispered nothings over who has or gets gas in close... intimate spaces. My besties... within reach and so intimate when I accept the embrace and intensity of emotion provoked by them. They bring shrieks of horror. They bring coffee and sometimes cake... on a diet plate! They drift in with mention of weight but correct me if I take a wrong step toward it... pizza? no way... unless a friend, their friend is springing for the load...PIZZA HUT? fine. David! David would eat it all if you leave it there... but

Best Friends
Best friends are the people you can count on for anything and everything. They are always there for you, no matter what. They are the people with whom you can share your deepest secrets and craziest moments. They are the people who will help you get through the toughest times of your life, and the people who will be there to celebrate the best times.

Women's Relationship
Previous research suggests that both jealousy and relationship contingent self-esteem (RCSE) are related to alcohol use and alcohol-related problems. No work, however, has examined these two constructs together as they relate to motives for alcohol use and alcohol-related problems. The current study aims to build upon emerging literature examining different types of jealousy (i.e., emotional, cognitive, and behavioral), relationship quality (i.e., satisfaction, commitment, closeness), RCSE, and alcohol use. More specifically, the current study aimed to examine the associations between RCSE and drinking to cope and RCSE and alcohol-related problems, in the context of the different types of jealousy. Moreover, the current study aimed to assess whether the associations between RCSE, jealousy, and drinking outcomes vary as a function of relationship quality. Two hundred and seventy seven individuals (87% female) at a large southern university participated in the study. They completed measures of RCSE, relationship satisfaction, commitment, closeness, and jealousy as well as alcohol-related outcomes. Using PROCESS, moderated mediational analyses were used to evaluate different types of jealousy as mediators of the association between RCSE and drinking to cope/alcohol-related problems. Further, we aimed to examine whether relationship quality moderated the association between RCSE and jealousy in predicting alcohol-related variables. Results indicated that cognitive jealousy mediated the association between both RCSE and drinking to cope and RCSE and alcohol-related problems. Further, relationship satisfaction, commitment, and closeness were all found to moderate the association between RSCE and cognitive jealousy such that at lower, but not higher levels of satisfaction, commitment, and closeness, cognitive jealousy mediated the association between RCSE and drinking to cope and RCSE and alcohol-related problems

Truth Be Told
Why ask if you're going to say no? What's the point if you're just going to turn me down? I don't understand why we're still doing this. We both know that it's over. Why waste any more time? The cons outweigh the pros? It's not worth it anymore. I need something new. Something really different. I want more out of life.
