You still have your talent, your fans, your own experiences and opportunities. I'm sad to hear that you have to go through this and that it's affecting your time in the UK. Do your best to keep on truckin, to have fun, and to find more Sweeney Todd (and other wonderfully nerdy) places to see. *hugs*Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07505775236375032523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1747267274088670063.post-8403508640036185492009-08-28T13:21:35.368-07:002009-08-28T13:21:35.368-07:00I just read this...I can only offer similar advice...I just read this...I can only offer similar advice to everyone else.

I'm sorry that things between you and Alex didn't work out... I have been reading your updates from the earliest to the newest, and as I was reading I was dreading what you have already confirmed to us. It's a shame that Alex didn't see any other solution other than just break up =/ I'm not being funny, I am truly sorry. <br /><br />Just make the most of it, I guarantee you that you won't regret this time. As much as you might think that there's no point in staying in the UK, you did want to do the course before meeting Alex; and maybe on a harsher note, you would have carried on together and this would (or might) have happened anyway further along the line and it would have been even more painful... What do you think?<br /><br />I don't like Guiness, I actually just don't like beer full stop... <br /><br />I'd much like to go into that maze though!! Sounded fun!!!<br /><br />Thinking of you and warm regards from Spain.Nathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09380629431860920981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1747267274088670063.post-91036284494014188782009-08-26T14:51:32.554-07:002009-08-26T14:51:32.554-07:00Even though I don't know you (except through w...Even though I don't know you (except through what I've learned from blogs, videos, and twitter) this hurts my heart.

Alex has all the right not to want you as a girlfriend. But as a friend, he should have known a little better.<br /><br />Also, not going home earlier IS the best decision, any alternative would forever feel like failure. You don't seem like the type who would accept that.<br /><br />Don't know why I'm saying all this, I'm pretty sure you know it by now.<br /><br />PS: Offer to visit Spain still up. Besides the plane ticket, you won't have to spend another dime.Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02799322840156731743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1747267274088670063.post-57913088181784484742009-08-26T11:35:36.610-07:002009-08-26T11:35:36.610-07:00You said a little while ago that it felt like only...You said a little while ago that it felt like only a small amount of people, the regular commenters, read your blog, but I see that this post got 73 comments!

Essentially I deceive her for the rest of her trip, ignore everything we had that was wrong in our relationship, and THEN - after she's spent a day on a 10-hour plane journey home, feeling crappy and tired and missing everyone - I EMAIL her to say I don't think it's gonna work. She realises I've felt this way for ages and can't believe I spent all that time lying or avoiding it, only to break her heart in an email and move on with my life without getting to see her or talk any more about it.<br /><br />So I did what I thought was best, trying to respect that she's a big girl who deserves to know the truth about how her boyfriend feels without lying and stringing her along like a child for the rest of her trip. Kristina was offered the chance to go home early, but she turned it down, so her being stuck here is now her choice, not mine. And I DID offer her a place to stay in September.<br /><br />That's just so we're all clear, if anybody's even going to read this at this point ... I didn't just drop her and move on without taking a LOT of time to consider her feelings.Alex Dayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14373347469327483807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1747267274088670063.post-84901354095704896092009-08-26T08:30:50.453-07:002009-08-26T08:30:50.453-07:00I'm really sorry to hear that you're going...I'm really sorry to hear that you're going through such a hard time during something that should be the experience of a lifetime. Boys have the worst timing, huh? I know so many guys who broke up with their girlfriends on their birthdays or right before Valentine's Day... apparently the reasoning is "Why draw it out any longer than we have to?" or something like that. Which I suppose I see the logic of but no way does it help it suck less for the girl! I know it's hard to imagine right now but one day you will have completely neutral feelings toward all the songs, places, movies, etc., that bring back memories right now. It just takes time, and a little self-indulgence while you wait. Take really good care of yourself and do all the things you love to do while you tough it out, and it makes the time fly that much faster. And remember that all your readers/youtube followers love you! There's lots of love in the world for Kristina!Beccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16147782431955206803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1747267274088670063.post-79239963879238346412009-08-26T07:22:25.316-07:002009-08-26T07:22:25.316-07:00guiness....urgh i hate that stuff.

It's nice to just get out and do things. As far as your dad's opinion on Guiness; as long as you drink at the pubs then the Irish will love you. I spent two weeks in Ireland a few summers ago and I found the people to be amazing and really kind. I want to go back someday.<br /><br />On the Alex side I will echo all the other comments. We love you and are here to offer support, advice, and more virtual hugs than you know what to do with. Also SiTC is huge so if you want to avoid parts of it you can. However, if you feel like you can face it, do it. Trust me, the sooner you can look at him and go "You know what sucker? I'm happy, here, single, as me." the better. Not saying this will happen overnight or even over a month but it will happen. Just take some time to get reacquainted with yourself. You're Kristina and there are things in your life that have made you happy for 21 years, try to remember them.<br /><br />Cheers love. *hugs*Ravenclaw2313https://www.blogger.com/profile/09289111443468095826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1747267274088670063.post-66016057884738755582009-08-26T07:01:19.712-07:002009-08-26T07:01:19.712-07:00Like many others, Guiness is pretty disgusting.
