Sorry I need to vent...
So I decided that I really needed to get this all out of my system because I'm really kind of upset about it and it's just kind of a ridiculous story so you all can share it with me I guess. So the other night...I believe Sunday...my phone rang at about midnight and that does not usually happen so I was kind of surprised. Zora was out in the living room and I was in bed reading so he got up to answer it and I asked him who it was and he looked at me kind of confused and said it was Brett (his friend and former roommate from Sioux City) We were mostly confused because he was calling my phone instead of Zora's. So anyway I got up and went out there while he answered it and he asked me if Amanda (my latest roommate) still talked to Anthony (her ex)? And I was like well I don't know I haven't talked to Amanda since I gave her my last rent check and we didn't talk about him. So Zora continued his conversation with Brett and when he got off the phone I asked him what that was all about and he looked at me kinda funny and he said that apparently Amanda (who is in Sioux City for her sister's graduation at the moment) has been telling people that I have been cheating on Zora since I moved to Ames. Now just so you all know this is COMPLETELY ridiculous, you all know that I would never do anything like that to anyone let alone the guy who it looks like I will spend the rest of my life with. But anyway, she apparently told someone who knew both Zora and I and it spread throughout a bunch of people that he went to high school with including, but not limited to, his ex-girlfriend who he broke up with to be with me. Now I am not one to really get that upset about what people think of me or care that there's a stupid rumor going around that I was unfaithful because both Zora and I know it's not true and that's all that's important really. What I'm really upset about is the fact that Amanda was supposedly one of my "best" friends and I have never done ANYTHING to her to make her want to hurt me intentionally like that. I mean it's competely vindictive and it really upset me that she would do that to me. I have not really had good luck with roommates, my first roommate stole a bunch of my clothes, another one moved out and trashed the place, and now this. I just don't understand how someone can be so intentionally mean for absolutely no reason. So there...I feel a little better getting that off my chest.

One thing I've learned, Em, is that we were extremely spoiled growing up to have family (and friends) as wonderful as we had. There a lot of really bad people out there who wouldn't think twice about doing things we would never even think of doing (not that we're perfect or anything). The only thing you can really do is vent, maybe cry a little, and move on remembering the lessons you've learned and holding on to the wonderful things you have (like Zora). I'm sorry to hear you had to go through all that. People can be very hurtful sometimes. I love you!!
I guess the way I see it is taht Amanda doesn't have Anthony anymore but now you and Zora are together in Ames now...she doesn't have that same connection with you now when both of you had boyfriends out of the same city that you live in, and now she doesn't have one at all...maybe she wants you to be in the same boat as she's in....I dunno, just a thought. Love you!
I have a feeling it's something to that effect...but that doesn't make it any better on my end.
