I do agree...that is the mindset I used when breaking up with her. Has the 12 years given her a new sense? Do people actually change their habits? I know those 12 years were rough on her...she got involved with some very shady people. You know...it would make sense if I were to get involved with her...it would mean that it could possibly lead to not only getting involved with her...but also the shady people of her past.
Reboot....very well put. You describe the situation very well. I honestly believe she never fell out of love with me....even to this day. Through the years, I have pondered exactly what you have said. Very good. Thank you.
My heart and mind after 12 years have been totally wiped out of the equation. I kind of refused myself to become emotionally involved with her last night...but she did say the magic word. I really wonder if she knew I was looking for that or not. She is very smart when it comes to playing psychological games.
As far as revenge, I am too busy to be playing that stuff.
TheMirror....I have forgiven her. With that forgiveness came distance. Now that distance has become compromised a bit. I suppose I am at a position...do I decide to close the gap a bit.
BTW, if I had not forgiven her, the answer to my question(s) would be simple.
That makes complete sense....in a simplistic form. However, at times, life is more complicated than that..throwing in many shades of gray slowly steering the path in many directions...off of the well beaten one you describe.
Thank you for sharing that. It sincerely makes a lot of sense. I genuinely don't know how to feel about the situation. I must say, any feelings I have had for her and eroded in time.
That is an interesting concept. It makes me wonder....is it because they don't expect much from a dog...other than what dogs do? Or is it, they have complete control over them. (most of the time).
Laf...I do agree. There is no doubt, that technology has made things easier for all of us.....it is just that certain technologies can only be available to the few as well.
BTW Laf...I have been curious since seeing your picture up. Which of those beautiful ladies is you?
That is interesting. It will be something to see how that all pans out in time. They are trying to make robots replicate and show emotions. ...perhaps signs of something deeper to come (with real replicated consciousness).
CC....hopefully the internet can curtail some of that...with real news and media messages coming from the horse's mouth...and not Robert's toy horse either.
You are right about technology not advancing too far past what has been around for some time now. I wonder what sort of secret technologies may exist...not yet released.
That rocking horse was making me think.. I was waiting to see some other sort of toys in that window though. Speaking of your famous rocking chair position...when is that new and update Birds book coming out?
About my maintenance level...lately...if I don't change my ways, I am afraid I might turn into high.
BTW...I was just looking for your latest blog to check out, it is gone like the wind.
Very clever and so true. I hope all is well for you there. Thankfully things near me are beginning to wind down...so we are lead to believe here. My state is going to relax all their restrictions and open things up as they were pre-covid on July 1. Hopefully you are having the same luck there.
Back in the day, I always thought it would be a beautiful thing for all of us to be connected to one another...no matter where on the planet we were. The internet does fulfill that, with a general sense of ease. It is a powerful tool...and relatively still new. We (humans) have a complete history of being separated....primarily by location and some by beliefs. Anything that is relatively a new introduction will need to have a certain time for its inception to be operating on smooth and satisfactory capacity. Thus, in time, this newly linked human world will all become accepting of each's boundaries and beliefs on a global level with a beautiful harmony. At least...that is what I think with the "connectedness" we all enjoy with the internet.
I am not sure I heard Jesus say that. I am not saying you are wrong...I just have not personally heard that. But, it would seem that love is more difficult to achieve these days. Can that be due to the internet? Can this be one of those things that need to be ironed out in time as the child (humans) plays with its new toy (internet) in extreme natures to explore and understand all its capacities and begins to have a respect for its beauties?
One can argue...if you don't have love, then you must have hate. For all those who have discovered via the internet how to hate...will discover....that they themselves will be easy targets of that same hate from others. Perhaps in the end, love will conquer. ....in time
Hello TheMirror, no intrusion. Thank you for sharing. It would seem the biggest thing that technology has not came close to yet is consciousness and self replication. Those two things can be the things that set us apart from our maker.
I must admit, it is bitter-sweet Loh. I am almost in the same boat as you, with the exception of the beautiful eyes statement. That means us men need to start messaging women I suppose. We have to be the pursuers now....now that the fake women have been removed.
would you ever consider getting back with your ex
Don't mean to be rude here...but I need to get back with my daily chores but I will be back to read and comment.Thank you all for your input...it is valuable.
