Really. I don't mind," as uncomfortable as it was for him, he wouldn't deny her the need to vent. Lucan found dealing with women to be difficult, but only because he had no experience with it, "Sometimes you just need to talk. I just might not be the best person to give advice. I've never...uh...I've never liked anyone," at least not that he could remember. He thought some girls and guys he saw around school were attractive, but he'd never felt a desire to be with any of them. Not the way Silas had described it, anyway.<br/><br/>"Maybe I just don't understand what it's like, but him caring about you doesn't mean he has to love you, right? You gave it a try and told him how you feel. If he doesn't return those specific feelings, you can't really be mad at him about it. We can't control how other people feel about us. I think it's okay to be upset about it, but you can't expect him to change how he might feel. Though I am very glad it's not Silas. People can change, but I don't think all people can," he could imagine Silas being happy with spending the rest of his life with a long string of one night stands, "I don't think Silas wants anyone to love him. Some people are happy that way."<br/><br/>"And if he's really your friend, then he won't forget about you. If he does, then for one, he's stupid and for two, he wasn't really your friend. I know that might be hard to think about, but that's just the way some people are. He might not even realize he's doing it. Sometimes people do hurtful things without meaning to," he knew Silas didn't mean to hurt the girls and guys he played with. Silas was honest with them, but they still ended up hurt by his rejection at a more meaningful relationship, "Maybe you should try to talk to him again. Let him know how you feel about his not returning your feelings. Decide if you can be just his friend or not. If not, tell him that you don't want any more contact. Sometimes it's better to just cut people off," he'd considered doing it to his family. He loved his mother, he did. But his grandparents were insufferable. They would sufficate him one day if let them.<br/><br/>"But you're right, I can't really do much. But I, uh, I'm willing to listen. If you'd rather I didn't say anything, I can do that," he might be better off that way. Lucan felt like he'd said a lot and that none of it was helpful in any way.
