Hello everybody, and thank you for clicking into my blog! To introduce myself shortly, I am Frii and I hail from Finland, but I live in Sweden. I am a big lover of the Japanese anime and gaming culture, and just gaming in general! I also adore animals and just being happy, but these are not relevant. This will not be a blog about the things I love, or what makes me happy.
This blog will be about anger. About things that deeply irritate me.
KEEP IN MIND. ALL THESE THINGS I RANT ABOUT -- NONE ARE PERSONAL, TOWARDS ANYBODY. THIS BLOG IS NOT TO ATTACK ANYBODY OR MAKE THEM FEEL BAD. IF YOU RECOGNIZE YOURSELF FROM THE TEXT, THEM YES, YOU MUST HAVE IRRITATED ME AT SOME POINT, BUT I STILL LOVE YOU AS A FRIEND. IF YOU RECOGNIZE YOURSELF FROM THE TEXT, THEN DO NOT MESSAGE ME WITH APOLOGIES AND EXCUSES. THANK YOU.
So let us start?
Chapter one; Priorities.
To keep this short, I have a wonderful group of friends, and nearly 50 people I aim to see at conventions. They are held around 3-6 times a year, and I personally used to attend around 4 ones a year when I still lived in Finland. I would commonly bunk in at my buddies with a handful of people, or rent a hotel/hostel room together. We would commonly go out and eat, and spend as much time as it is humanly possible with each other. There is around 25 of us, and we meet together a few times a year. We are all sprawled all across the country, or were, when I still lived in Finland with my best friend as my roomie.
Here comes what irritates me -- you come to the convention with group of friends that come from your area, that you see commonly, from your neighborhood, city or just near you. We ask you to come and eat with us, sit with us, spend time with us, watch a program with us. You decline, because you said that you promised to spend time with those who you came with, and it would feel rude to just leave them by themselves. Okay, cool. Of course.
But it happens every fucking time. All the time.
Now, listen to me here. We, the all of us, as friends, collect together SO FEW TIMES DURING THE YEAR TO ENJOY THE TIME WITH EACHOTHER. How IGNORANT can you be to not to understand that? If your friends look down upon you for spending time with us, the people you barely, BARELY see collected together, then I have news for you -- your friend is an insufferable dick. Yet, how ignorant are you when you do not understand that? Would you rather spend time with those friends you see more commonly, or take the rare chance to see us? Bring your friends along, for crying out loud! You should know us and know that we are very welcoming people, but stop being ignorant with your priorities. They mean more to you than us? Okay, cool. That is your decision, and I respect that, but hear this;
Me and my best friend, Emily, went to the conventions together. Always together. Every time. Same sleeping place, went to eat together and so on. First few conventions she was glued to me, as she had no friends, and she was insecure due to being a Brit in Finland. However, time went by, she got friends, and we BARELY spent any time together in cons. You know what? I was so fucking happy. She was going around, meeting her own friends, and so was I! I had ALL the time in the world to spend time with her once the con was over, but did we have the time with our friends who we barely saw? NO.
I repeat. I am not trying to be mean and nasty. The others most likely do not mind, but I do. I truly do. I hate ignorance -- I hate it SO much, but I do not hate those who do this. However, I hope you will read this and understand your own behavior, and come to your senses.
However, this does not just happen with conventions. Oh no, this is with boyfriends and best friends, too. ''Hey, wanna do that?'' ''No thanks, promised I would do it with my boyfriend!'' ''Hey, wanna see this movie?'' ''Sorry, promised to watch it with my boyfriend!'' ''Hey, wanna play this game?'' ''Sorry, I wanna see if boyfriend would rather play it!''
There are no words, JUST NO WORDS-- Okay, this happens with new couples. Your boyfriend, or girlfriend is your world, and woo-fucking-hoo, rainbows and shit. I have been there, and I know how it feels -- but do you want to know something? I learned, due time, that I will NEVER prioritize my friends over my fiance, Lenny, or vice versa. No. They both have EQUAL rights to my attention and to do activities with me. Do you want to play a game with me? Okay, we will play a game! If Lenny wanted to do that, I am sure he understands. Do you want to skype with me, even though I am skyping with Lenny, which I (used to) do every fucking day for 9 hours? Yes, of course! Let's talk! Is your boyfriend so immature and demanding that he will not understand, or are you just a asslicker that you must please him? Most of the time, it is the latter.
Your lover will be around you for so much, for so long, if you play your cards right, but your friends will fade if you neglect them. If you show now interest to them due to your world revolving around your lover, they WILL frown upon you, like it or not. I have done the mistake myself, once, and I have gravely apologized for that, and I am forever in shame.
And what I am trying to say here is that quit being ignorant. Quit putting your boyfriend, or the certain group of friends, above the stance in such a OBVIOUS manner. Do you love her or him more than the world? Absolutely! I adore my fiance more than words can say, and I love him more than the sky and earth put together -- but I would never, ever, ever (again) make it obvious that I would choose doing activities with him over my friends in a heartbeat. Never.
Does this rant make me ignorant? It might, it truly might, but I am ranting about ignorance of people -- how ironic is that?
