I love that you do the cave no shave thing. lol I like to sometimes even skip a day showering. I'm saving up for a nice long bubble bath tonight as a matter of fact.
I would be happy with a she shed in the back yard of the loverman's house. Those things are saweet! I just need a place to retreat in order to recharge and to daydream about my next creative endeavor.
Youmeus...I don't think that that relationship was about 'forever'. :). I don't have a belief that the length of a relationship tells the tale of how healthy it is/was.
Pedal, I did that for 5 years also. I had a lot of emotional maturity work to do. The ex-boyfriend was instrumental in all of that. Now, I feel like I've learned what I was meant to learn from that period.
So, I got out of the hermitage and am now basically living with different people every few days. I kind of threw myself out of seclusion in an intense way! lol
It's been good. I was getting to the point where I could see myself never talking to anyone new again, except for online. Yikes!
I'm sure a new level of understanding will want to be birthed at some point. But for now, I'm feeling...New people, New fun, New experiences.
Youmeus, I used the key over and over for 11 years in my last relationship. Is that long enough to realize my key never fit the door?
Communication is key. Also, though, each party must be self-responsible. If communication is about one person blaming the other, or one person making promises they can't/won't keep? Makes for a rocky road after awhile.
I gave the last one the old college try. I'm ready for some fun and willing to wait for a relationship that isn't all work. :)
...or, I'm sure I'll work out how to be alone and happy with no thoughts of yearning for "the right one".
Ihate....first off your profile name might be causing you some problems. But, I agree with Biff. You can't be a gloomy Gus and expect happy go lucky women to want to have anything to do with you. derr....
Good luck though. I really do hope you find all that you wish for in a woman.
Yes, Biff! I would love that kind of community. A little 'do not disturb' sign on the door lets everyone know that you are creating a masterpiece within.
I think that what you described is pretty much what CS is to many of us. But we are missing the touch...the physical communion, as it were. Seems like there's always something left to be desired.
Thank you for the well wishes. I'm going to come and go as I please and do nothing or do a lot....ahhhh. I love these sacred days of me time.
Daears, I'm sure I can do better than that! I want a soulful, quivery knees, heart melting, dissolving into, kind of experience, with someone who likes his own space. Don't think some gigolo is going to do it for me.
Yes, Oldblue, I totally agree. Hanging out together just because it's what's expected, because that's what all the magazines say is needed for a good relationship? I don't fit that mold at all. In fact, I'm afraid I don't fit many of the status quo molds too well.
If anything, I have an aversion to being "normal". lol
Brussel Sprouts and Eejits
I'm so confused. I thought they wanted to start a conversation about brussel sprouts.I guess I better get a life.
