How long is too long?
When we get involved with someone we graft them onto ourselves. Ripping that graft away is not only painful, it leaves scars. I hate pain!and I don’t want scars.
Choice one: instantly apply a new relationship, like a transplant, and hope it takes
Choice two: go cold turkey, and build solid scar tissue so it is almost impossible for anyone new to break through and hurt you again.
Choice three: is like breaking a nail down to the quick, you press it hastily back into place until the nail grows, or the quick stops being so sensitive! Either the original bloke, or a friendly alternative - eventually the wound heals cleanly and you can peel away the scab and be left without a mark.
I'm currently in healing mode. I tried to hastily find someone new, but yikes there aren’t many suitable transplants out there, and I am hellish picky. Choice two: I hate pain and I don’t want scars. Currently lucky enough to have the third option, which is always my preferred way, but I’m starting to worry that it is definitely taking longer for the scab to form! After all, he's looking for someone too. Tick tock.
So - look at your scars and tell me. Which is the best?
