Don't you hate when you get in trouble for doing something that was dumb but
still completely your fault?
example for me: i got a ticket for an "unsafe lane change" last night.
I almost hit a motorcyclist but it was during pretty thick traffic and it was
pretty hard to see the cyclist....
But i got a ticket and the only person I could be mad at was myself. Don't you
hate that? sometimes you just wish it was someone else's fault cause then you
can whine about how the cop was being a jerk or how the motorcyclist was crazy
and how you weren't doing anything... but it WAS my fault...
any other stories you've had where you wish there was another reason, but when
you boil it down, it was your fault?
yeah. even though it makes you look like a complete jerk, it still does feel a
lot better when you have someone else to blame. but its definitely the worse
when everyone knows that it's your fault and your fault only.
i remember earlier this year at school i hid my friend's shoes as a joke and
totally forgot about it. a couple hours later i learnt that his shoes were
stolen and i felt guilty as all hell. i wanted to blame him for not looking hard
enough but it was my fault. i didn't even have the guts to tell him it was me.
horrible friend yeah?
anyway, tough luck about your ticket. motor cyclists do seem to pop up whenever
you least expect them.
yeah, sorry 'bout the friend thing. You're not a horrible friend. I don't know
your personality type or your friendship, but maybe tell him just to know that
you were honest with him. Maybe buy him some cheap shoes as a gesture? Just a
thought in case you wanted to know what i was thinking ^_^. Thanks for sharing
though.
hmm even if there is someone else to blame or share the blame...i always get
around to blaming myself...in life, my theory is you are to blame for everything
around you...pretty tough one since i end up worrying about everything...but
then i always find that i am to blame directly or indirectly...hahaha so can't
say anythign here..
haha, that can't be good for you, Lion. Reminds me of family guy, how Lois just
supresses everything inside her because Peter is so stupid. But about having no
one else to blame because it really was your fault, I've gone to a few
situations like that, and it's pretty tough. I usually end up thinking about it
for a few days before I can finally accept it.

hah wow. that's too bad. You probably shouldn't blame yourself for EVERYTHING, maybe just some things ?

yeah i'm pretty much over it now, but it just takes sometime and some acceptance
