Funny how when you think you've put something unpleasant to rest in your life, it creeps back up.

Details are not important. Last spring, I learned that someone I thought I knew wasn't the person I thought they were. I *really* respected this person.

Through this person's actions and words, I learned differently. Hard to reconcile, but I accepted it. Realized it was TOTALLY out of my control. I had my peace with it. I learned that I need to really step back and work on how I trust others and determining if they are truly worthy of it.

(Always trying to turn something positive out of a bad experience!)

This afternoon I realized I think what has bothered me more than anything, more than me realizing that I was naive about this person, was what this person apparently perceives about me. We're talking some *REALLY* whacked out stuff. Stuff that anyone that even remotely knows me would laugh about.

I think I figured it out this afternoon. One conclusion keeps making sense. This stuff is so far-fetched that I'm thinking this person is seriously unbalanced ... Puts things in a different perspective.
