Okay. I finally got to know about how somebody actually genuinely feels. Somebody who usually bottles things up so that her opinions never see the light of day. It feels like she finally wiped her windows clean, so I can see through her walls. The facades she builds to "keep us all safe"... which, despite the best intention, I think only ends up hurting us, are finally gone. Or at least partly.

With this information, I finally understand. So many mistakes could have been prevented. So much pain averted. So many tears kept in the eye.

If the person is reading this, I'd like to say - thank you! Despite some things that were said about me that weren't exactly what I wanted to hear, and yes, did hurt (just a little), what I finally heard was THE TRUTH. And that is better than any sort of sugarcoated aversion, halftruth, or lie. No matter how good it makes me feel in the short term. Thank you. Thankyouthankyouthankyou.

For example, I noticed the same "issue" rerising several times. If you let me know after the first time, it wouldn't have happened again. And you also would've let me in on a problem I supposedly have, because I've probably been pissing a lot of other people off too. (Actually, I know for a fact that I have.) So a lot of anger could have been saved. :)

Please. Something I've always hated about our friend group is that too many things are left unsaid, too many actions left undone. This goes for more than just the one person I was initially addressing. It ends up building into huge webs of conspiracies and stress, when maybe, if we all let each other know what we really thought or felt about them or things that they did, we could be so much closer. Stop hiding - everybody has opinions, and they're nothing to be ashamed of! Don't be afraid of hurting us because you'll just end up hurting yourself AND us, when we find out. Please.

Thank you.
