Can I get a witness?

[michcapish]

A reptile resides in our backyard. I witnessed it basking under the spring sun three days ago, oblivious to the goddess-like creature who approached it and took a photo. :D This ‘lizard’ looked like a dry tree branch from afar but lucky I didn’t touch it. It’s feeding on the snails that have multiplied like rabbits thanks to recent showers and an

Wise...very wise

[baltrano]

Wise words m. I have the same problem with my gf right now but luckily I'm one person who resets my mood on a daily basis, meaning I forget about the bad situations of the past, I let go of things that I can't change and just learn from them. To make this clear here is a great example ( go back to studying if you're busy

long comments are always welcome! :) and i promised myself to check lj and emails AFTER exams.

yeah, i've checked ur gf's lj and you two seem quite different. (but lj reveals a mere speck of who we are though so can't really say).

compromises are good as long as you're both happy. and no one said couples HAVE to do the same things all the time. i think it becomes unhealthy only when you start feeling deprived of that which makes you really happy or that which will make you grow as a person.

coffee and cigarettes as a compromise. lol.

This post is meant to be well-written

...it is. I can totally relate to the story of your ex...that's what I feel now.

the point I’m trying to make is that he wasn’t quite eager to witness the life I wanted to live and I wasn’t quite eager to witness his. Our relationship was built on compromises, all for love.

...so, so true...

thank you! :) i was first drawn to your lj early on because i feel like the 'journey' we were taking in terms of relationship was similar in some ways.

but can i just say that i thought there was something wrong with me. and yet after him, i met someone who loves what i do and who i also absolutely adore. so now i know that there is always hope. there is no need to compromise after all. :)

He and I used to say what's marriage but a piece of paper. We don't need that to say we love each other and want to spend our lives together. But lately we both felt like we wanted to do anything and everything to signify that we belonged to each other. I don't know if that makes sense, but it was almost like we wanted to be 'owned' by the other in all senses of the word.

[michcapish]

i used to think the same. that it's just a piece of paper. someone's changed my mind about that. and i know what u mean about that sense of being 'owned' (and 'owning' too). ur very fortunate that you've met your match. it's a rare thing. :P

[michcapish]

LOL! you just gave me the perfect name for it. and sorry, i'm keeping him, he's keeping the entire household amused. :P

marry for comfort? in a sense, i think we all do. and if you can cook, you won't find it hard to find someone. :P

hope all is well,

Mmmm. A bit too close for comfort.

I'm just hoping for my final best-friend, who happens to have an "inny" where I have an "outy."

:-p

LOL!!!
