Ugly People

[Tom Swierzbinski]

Past experiences dont matter one bit with me. I only think of someone as 'ugly' if they backstab me, cheat on me or use me. Ill always give them one chance if they do, just incase its a mistake on either of our parts, but after that I dont want to know them anymore.

Example - an, until recently, good friend of mine stayed at my place because he said he had been kicked out for wanting to be a woman. He nicked my booze, fags and weed, and even though I asked him not to, he smoked in my room 90% of the time instead of in the kitchen, where the rest of us smoke. It was only until later in the week that I found out that he had not been kicked out, but his mum had said to him that she doesnt want to see him dressed up as a girl. Fair enough, any parent would be like that because its a major shock. Later on in the week he gave me a bit of bud. I smoked most of it, then saved the rest for the next day. In the morning I open up my stash tin and its mysteriously disappeared. I walk upstairs, and Ben is sitting in my room, bong next to him and my room smelling of weed. I confront him about it and he denied taking it. So I kick him out.
The other day on halloween we met up, and he got pissed. He walked back to mine while I was hanging with another mate, and he asks me if he can have one of my diazepam (which I had to near enough beg to get). I say no, and he carries on asking. In the end I said ask my mum. He comes back an later, saying 'yo Swizz those tablets are fucking awesome!'. Turns out he took one anyway. And he still owes me a tenner. So for that I kept a GTA guide which costs £11 as payment and Ive told him I dont want anything to do with him no more.

Fool me once, shame on you... but you wont get a chance to fool me twice.

Well, maybe this is harsh, but I am not into "pity fucks".

I think that if life kicks you down, and you alienate everyone who was there by your angry or depressed behavior, then too damn bad if you don't have a support system left. Pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and realize that you got yourself into this mess.

I don't have a lot of sympathy or empathy for people that can't realize the implications of their own actions and deal with them. If he is a victim of circumstance, then fine, but things that alienate friends without bringing new friends into the picture are obviously sketchy and not to be coddled.
