Conversations on a cold night

This weekend, I had a long conversation with a friend going thru a divorce. I happend to run into him and it just kinda snowballed to shit from there. The problem os, I friends with both sides. It sucks.
Anyway, the part that got brought up, dude is a good dude and he is heartbroken. He said he was good, but I can see thru people easy. Im not too bad on predicting just not with myself.
Anyway he said something that i admitted to myself years ago and it is total bullshit. You know when someone says "i just want you to be happy". RUBBISH! They do what you to be happy, but they want to be the cause of that happpiness, they want to be a critical element in thahhpiness. Be it to share, bring forth, enjoy, etc.. It is something that is easy to say, but yet such a lie. well...maybe 1 time it wasnt a lie

yeah i woulda like to be part of that happiness too.
poor friend, he is down in the bog of everlasting shit, and im supposed to have dinner with his ex in a few weeks to be her shoulder. such is my life.
