So, I'm not sleeping well. It's the inveitable consequence of sleeping in someone else's bed. When you'r in someone else's bed the mattress is either too firm or too soft; the pillows are either too flat or too fluffy; nothing's the way you like it. Let alone the unpleasant visuals that accompany thinking about what's gone on in the bed before you slept there. And even a thinking about what's gone on in a hotel bed can't compete with what you imagine about people you know. Anyway, I wake up every hour or so, toss and turn for another half hour then fall asleep and start the whole vicious cycle over again.
I have a question for the one, maybe two people here, and I'm really interested in hearing what you think: do you think it's appropiate to tell somone, a friend, that he/she is dating someone you think is TOTALLY beneath him/her? I'm curious.

NO, not ever because even if you did, they won't listen and are likely to become even more committed to the person.
depends who you're talking about- are you talking about me, Mike? B/c if it's about me, then I'd probably not like to know...but if it was about someone else, I'd like to know. Guess it's the whole gossip thing...are you asking this b/c you need to tell someone something, or are you just asking out of curiosity's sake?
Well, ANONYMOUS, it's really hard to tell as I have no idea who you are...
But, right now it's a hypothetical.
It's probably not a good idea. If your mysterious friend is happy with their less-than-suitable (in your opinion) partner, then maybe they know something about that person that you don't.
And anonymous #1 has the right of it - people have told me before that Andrew and I wouldn't work out, and it just made me angry with them and that much more intent on making it work and proving them wrong.
Mike I forgot my user name so I time as annoymous right now b/c I forgot my password... I know you are referring to me. ANYWAYS that's besides the point. Why didn't you just come out and tell me? Well ok, I'm a little defensive right now seeing as how I just had a chat about this exact thing at work. But maybe I do know more than other people about the person I am dating (which I do), and I trust myself in that situation, and maybe the person I am dating is working on things (for example, last night I made him damage a part on his laptop b/c of something...) and you know what, it was his idea to begin with! He told me "Kim, I've screwed up, I need to damage this thing so I won't use it stupidly." and you know what? He did what he said. I know he has issues (a lot of us do), and I knwo he is working on some things. Yes, some things do give me concern, and we have talked about things. Unless you think after all I've said here that I am still in danger (whether physically, emotionally, or however), then please tell me. Maybe I am blind...or maybe I see hope. Write me an email.
