Everything has finally settled for the most part.

Frost ended our relationship in the stupidest way possible, and has made it very clear that it was intentional. He's done with "us", and that's fine. I'll probably delete him off my list sometime down the line, once I've fully settled all my affairs and what have you.

I signed up to an email service that on my death, an automated system would email documents to specific people. I've had to update that to remove him from that list, because I'm sure as hell not giving him anything I was going to. It'll just collect virtual dust, I guess. Makes you wonder how many millions of virtual items are just sitting in "tombs", the owner gone to never return. My mom had a few MMO game accounts, and she gave them to me before she passed, but I've lost access to them and honestly the majority of those MMO's are gone anyways.

I have worries and concerns, and I don't know how to assuage them. Financial worries, life worries, post-life worries.. all of them.

Everything in life feels like it's built on a shaky foundation, adults are nothing more than old children, and it makes you wonder how society has progressed these thousands of years with everyone being so basic and primal, all this time.

I will mourn the loss of my friendship, and the loss of the companion whom I'd spent so many nights discussing the finer points of game mechanics with, but at some level, we were worlds apart. It had culminated in a few arguments these past months, about me constantly having games I enjoy being "s**t on" by him, because he had no finer way to discuss his dislike for a game than "IT'S TRASH".

This has given me a complex of assuming everyone hates the games I enjoy, and that I can't openly like anything without being s**t all over. It's weird that my newish, friends whom I'm not quite sure are close friends, are more open and warm to me than someone whom I've known for 10 years. It's all .. odd. Life, is odd.

I take things too far, more than I mean to. I've gotten better at stopping before I go 100% overboard, but it seems like lately people have less and less tolerance for my pranks and jokes. Before, a 'good stopping point' is now "too far", and I'm not quite sure how to reconcile that. I am going to stop joking with Chloe for a while, atleast. I keep upsetting her and I'd rather just leave things be for a while.

It's funny, that this dumb fight was literally over me changing my name too often. It's an easily remedied situation, but she's upset and being irrational right now, so I'll wait until she's calmed down and then provide the solution myself. I might do it without her knowledge, simply to satiate her. She'll think she "won", and all will be well.
