disapointed

didn't plan on posting again today. Feeling a bit disappointed right now. Realize that Trever doesn't understand me the way I thought he did. I was having a conversation with him about my journals. I have a lot of them and he can't understand why I keep all of them. I was trying to explain to him that each journal I have wrote in, even if its not full an may never be full, is a piece of me. That its important to me. He thinks that if I have used them to deal with things in the past and now those things have been dealt with and are in the past there is no need to keep them. I told him that he keeps a lot of old gaming stuff. It doesn't mean anything to me and I don't totally understand the point of keeping something that is just going to stay stored in a box and not played again, but that I know they mean a lot to him, so that I would never ask him to throw out his old unplayed games because of that reason. He said the difference in my journals and his stuff is that "someday his stuff might be worth something". So to me that was him saying that his stuff has value and mine doesn't. Mine may not have monetary value but it has value to me. There are things about my family and life in those. One day my kid might run across those and they might appreciate having some insight into their mom. He made me feel like crap for wanting to keep them. And I'm not willing to give on it either. just because I have a box of journals that take up space there is an issue. Really? Does he understand that the reason we know about History at all is because someone kept a Journal. I started the conversation with I didn't expect him to understand why i wanted to keep them, but I thought he would understand they mean something to me so the idea that he would have an issue with me keeping them I didn't think would be an issue he just wouldn't understand why I wanted too. I don't understand why just because he doesn't understand why I want to keep them I should have to not keep them. fuck that.
