First, a kidney infection is really really painful, and she may have just wanted to have a sympathetic ear.
Second, doesn't anyone remember the episode of Will and Grace where Karen lets Jack check out her br$asts? A gay male touching a straight woman's breasts means exactly nothing. It is like having a little lump and asking your girlfriend to touch them- just no biggie.
Of course, it sounds like there are other issues, but the infection and gay straight touchy feely doesn't set off alarms for me. Maybe you are looking for excuses? If you are over it, you don't need an excuse. But maybe you aren't over it. |

I've had a kidney infection, and it never involved that!  |

it's difficult to walk away from her cold, because she is so messed up... seriously her father died when she was 4, leaving her and her twin sister with a mother that never wanted them... they were abused until placed in foster care, then returned to their mother who still abused them but this time they fought back and soon developed meth habits and eating disorders... eventually being diagnosed bipolar and possibly the beginnings of schizophrenia...
i was the first guy in a long time that gave a *beep* about her (i still do) and helped her believe in herself... we were together about 2 years and she managed to go back to school, get a good job and is attempting to get off disability... it hasn't been perfect i have had to deal with the boobie grab incident and a few other unsavory moments, plus she doesn't want to have kids... as she has already had two, one she aborted and the other she adopted out... because of her damaged childhood she believes that she cannot be a good mother...
i still want to entertain a possibility of a family someday so our "relationship" has been at a stalemate for quite sometime, logically she understands this and agrees with me that time apart is a good thing...
i just fear that this another tactic to try and pull me further back into her world just when i felt some semblance of peace returning to my mind...
she knows what saying something like "i have a kidney infection" will make me think because after the boobie grab and whatnot i have been suspicious to the nth degree...
(about the boobie grab, she was at the other end of the bar and i could only see through a sea of "queens" what was going on... i made to leave and she stopped me and i confronted her with it... she followed me home after her lame drunken excuse that she thought "i was cool" she broke into tears...)
ya, this is lame who wants to hear about my pathetic relationship with someone who has a mood disorder...
i do kinda feel lame, like i did run away, but most of my life in that city had become filled with similar people... i dunno, something about the Mississippi river seems to draw mental instability and/or drug and alcohol abuse... not to mention it's great fun to know that even with two degrees i qualify to do temp work or apply myself gainfully at Subway, McDonalds or Wal-Mart... |
I don't know anything about your situation. However, when I first read your posting I came away with the impression that you may have a little bit of a "Messiah Complex" going on. Don't fall into the trap of trying to be her "Messiah." It never ends well for the wannabe savior.

no messiah complex here
it��s always sad
when a friend dies
prematurely
especially
if they��re still alive;
the suffocating
weight of sorrow
lies heavy on the heart
and you discover
that there��s no point
in rolling away the stone
when your Lazarus
isn��t looking for a savior.
no point in rolling away the stone
it��s hard enough
dealing with your own grief
without trying to take on
someone else��s burden
and it can��t be done, anyway.
all that we can do
really
is forget about it
and keep walking.
so, try not to think
about it too much.
for you and i,
life remains
to be lived; and
as for the dead—
if they come back—
their resurrection
will happen
on their schedule,
not ours.

If I am way off base here, my apologies.
I don't know anything thing about kidney infections so I can't offer any advice.
Just my worthless two Won.
Best of luck to you.

Sounds more like Japanese porn than a medical procedure. |

Truth, truth, truth...
About 10 years ago I was in a relationship like, that... my first major one, actually. The girl had obsessive-compulsive disorder... not quite Howard Hughes-style, but I can definitely say the that Aviator movie had some jarring moments in it for me... I totally thought that I was helping her and that I was supposed to be making those sacrifices for her, completely ignorant of how much better relationships (or single-ness) were supposed to be. It's one thing to be helping someone, but a complete waste to throw your happiness away for 'em. I still see the day that we broke up as the most fortunate of my life, and the year that we were together as a "dark age" of sorts- despite how much I thought I loved her at the time.
I know I can't speak for you or anything, but I can almost guarantee that you want out of this. |

Kidney infections aren't always brought on by sex and she probably wouldn't have told you if she thought this one was.
Since it sounds like this isn't the first time she's had the problem, advise her to start drinking cranberry juice and tons of water. It'll help her get better faster and cut down on the chances of it happening again. |
Okay...
It's a good idea to use hydration as a strategy, but a kidney infection needs other treatment too, right?
|
That's why I chose the word "help". I've never had a kidney infection, but I know the bladder ones are fairly painful and I can't imagine letting it slide long enough for it to affect the kidneys. |

With my extensive medical experience I have come to the conclusion that she took a rough ride on the Hershey highway. Time to trade her in for a new unridden model.  |

Mori, are you Chinese??
Please excuse me for the late reply, I just got back from work.
Unfortunately not. I am Korean. But I prefer the company of Chinese to Koreans, and was told that in my past life I was Chinese, qiren to be exact. Living in Britain in the 70's and 80's, Chinese, Japanese, Korean were all the same: you were all oriental.
P. S. Letty gets prettier by the day, and it seems she has a talent for abstract art. Or maybe she is just protesting against the barbarian food: ifumian or at least chajangmian instead of this barbarian travesty that Marco Polo stole from China. |

Interesting, Mori. For a minute there I thought you were Chinese because you know that saying.  |

Kidney infection?
Sulpha drugs. Cranberry juice is good for preventing them. The treatment hasn't changed. And times haven't changed so much either- including the various ways of contracting such infections.  |
