well not really but jeez.....  I'm so tired of being capable, responsible, always willing to help, always getting the job done!!! 

People abuse you when you are this kind of person. They come to you for everything. They expect you to solve every problem. They expect you to think for them. To make every thing right. And not ask for anything in return……I have been this person all my life and I am sick of it… when is someone going to try to take care of me?…. When can I sit back and trust that someone is going to handle the problem so I don’t have to? When am I going to get something more than a half hearted “Thank you”?…..

 Every where I go, work or home, everyone has this “Gillian will handle it” attitude or its “give it to Gillian she always gets it done quickly and correctly.  Yay for me! I'm capable and responsible but damn I feel taken advantage of sometimes… sometimes “Thank you” isn’t enough...sh*t... at home i dont even get a Thank you....its just a given... Gillian will handle it... thats what my tombstone will say " Gillian - she always got the job done. she was a wonderful problem solver"....

Gillian...I know what you are going through in part and I am so sorry.  It isn't fair for you!  It isn't something that you should have to go through.  I too want a man who is actually....crazy though....a man!!!!  What happened to the men who are supposed to take care of everything and we just sit back and relax?  Hey I was gonna run away today, do you want to come with me?  No men allowed....we can bring the kiddos tho :)
