h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Ellie told me this morning that, going along with our paranoid "delusions", three of our friends were indeed discussing us on Friday.
They said, or at least that was the inference, that they disapprove of us. Well, we always knew that. Rosa and Maria... they're religious (not that that should necessarily make a difference) (besides, in the Christian religion it doesn't specify that two girls being together is wrong) (I don't know what the Koran says) and they've made it clear. And Teri was always sort of edgy about it. She thinks it's weird. Or twisted. I don't know, I can't fathom her. Louise told them that when Ellie took a quiz on theSpark she put "yes" to the "have you lost your virginity" question. Terri at least found this weird, or twisted, or whatever. But Louise made Ellie take the test in the first place! Anyhoo, as I said to Terri earlier, I can't change their views so it's not worth making a hooha about them.
Being "liberal minded" as I guess my views are, I can't understand that people could think something's..... oh I don't know, really. It's just that if I were sleeping with a boy, would it be different? Maybe not with Rosa and Maria, but I know it'd be different with Terri.

They said, we're too affectionate in school, it makes them feel uncomfortable. This is what Ellie told me. Later I talked to Terri and she said it wasn't really that, it was just that they don't want to intrude on us. They feel neglected? Is that the word? I think it might be.
But that, that's OK to solve. If we stop hugging all the time and spend more time with our other friends, that might stop them feeling that way. I hope. Will it? Oh, as Mark Greaney from JJ72 sang, "confusion is rife".

I know the feeling... coz of who i am, when ever my friends say they have bloke troubles or owt, then i always joke that this is why they should become a lesbian. I found out at teh weekend that they thnk im coming on to them. they couldnt be further from the truth, but apparently it worries them that im going to. Im a natural flirt anyway, but... ggggrrrrrrrrrr!

Ai, that sucks! I know when we talked about it one of my friends said it'd be fine with them as long as I didn't start fancying her... but I don't think the worry's actually crossed their mind since they all found out.

mmm well. I shut up. It seemed to work.

seems a good strategy to me
