"If you deceive someone, you lose one of life's greatest treasures."

I was the recipient of beautiful flowers, sweet kisses, an evening together and apparent apologies.

In fact, the other night he held my waist and sobbed.

Still, I am at a loss.

It's not easy. I need to look him in the eyes and believe what he says.

I need to believe that he wouldn't just move files to other folders for safe keeping. I should trust that, but I can't.

I need to feel that he isn't short with me or that his "napping" won't affect his interaction.

I want to be respected consistantly. I deserve that.

I want to explain that so much more than sleep affects my attitude, affects my thought, affects my sleep patterns and my worries. These things are: my mother, my jobs, my brother, my usual loneliness, my lack of upbringing, my history, my past, my present, my father, my pains, my fears, my money, my body. I do my absolute best to refrain from allowing any of this to change my relationships. I feel I do a pretty damn good job.

Mostly, I wouldn't allow my lack of sleep or my negative mood to change the way I treat the man I love. And... I would never lie to him.
