A Big Fight
Jun. 25th, 1983 02:25 pm Steve had a massive fight with his mother today. He told her about New York and she said he shouldn't have lied. One thing led to another and she finally flung herself at him, screaming. He was pretty upset--she said that in Virginia, everyone told her he changed, especially the people he looks up to. Which apparently include me, Tim, MB, Pauline and others.
(My notes on the side of this entry: Steve: You don't love me! All you love is Dean!
Mrs. M: Everyone's view of you changed in Virginia)
It's one big long story, but I don't see it as him "looking up to me." Quite the reverse.
Anyway, she got pissed and said she was sending him for psychiatric help and also to live with his father in Washington.
He'd better not! I'd miss him more than I can say.
In a way, I was upset by the news--because I can't lose him. Not now. Not ever. I hope it all works out.
(A today note: can you tell someone was a bit smitten? And also, self-centered. I should have been less concerned about any impact to me. But I think that's how most people at that age act.)
