This might be irrational, even down right, borderline, bad-girlfriend crazy but every time he mentions something that happened while he was with his ex he says “we”. And every single time, those two tiny letters (which have such a massive connotation) make my skin crawl.  It’s jealousy. That I’m sure of. But, to be jealous of things that happened ( Read more... )

 I’m not exactly welcome at the house where Devon lives.
The house is occupied by him, his brother and his brother’s girlfriend. And as it turns out, they don’t like me. So, it’s best if I’m not there. It’s not that Devon doesn’t want me there, it’s just that they just don’t like me. And in turn, don’t like it when I’m there. Great. Although, I ( Read more... )

Sometimes there are just those days when the things you don’t expect to have happen actually happen.

For instance, walking through the mall today, D and I crossed paths with A. I won’t deny that my limbs went weak, my stomach dropped and my pulse sped up. I felt woozy and rubbery with all the air knocked out of me. I also squeezed D’s hand before ( Read more... )

I can't believe I've been officially dating D for only three months (and three weeks, if we get into specifics.) Considering everything; and how much has passed and happened and broken down and been rebuilt, it feels like longer. But longer in a good sort of way.
Consequently, it's only been six months since I was last with A - which makes it a ( Read more... )

What do you do when your “Divorced Boyfriend” really isn’t divorced at all? It’s not even a matter of divorcED versus divorcING but separated. A whole other ballpark. It’s not a lie exactly, but an omission of the truth. Apparently the marriage was just so long over that it’s considered divorced by all sides, and their families... but technically, ( Read more... )

Dear Amanda,
Here is your love horoscope
for Saturday, September 26:

Previous relationship issues die hard. Even when dating new people, it's tempting to compare them to old flames. Live in the now. You've already learned from past mistakes, so don't obsess over painful memories.

I had this dream the other night - Friday night, er...Saturday morning rather. Essentially there were these two buckets: one of sand and one of water. In the dream, for some reason, they were there to dip my grandmother’s feet in. Her feet were already all sandy, so the water was to wash away the said sand. And for some reason it was explained that ( Read more... )

I’m the insecure type of person who fears that her mother will stop loving her (after all, father did) so for the life of me I can’t understand why I ever assumed that A would have. But that’s neither here nor there, last night someone else said he was in love with me - and not the boyfriend, which would just make a little more sense I suppose - ( Read more... )

If I get too attached to D, he’s just going to leave. This had been clearly illustrated right back to my father. But most recently with A. I tried to keep him at arm’s length, even stopped seeing him twice in that year span so I could maintain some distance and maybe keep myself safe, but he came back. And finally, I gave in; I told him, I let ( Read more... )

"I am really quite taken with you"

Hmm, Where have I heard a variation of this before? What was it, "addicted to...", "I do like you..."? Something like that. Can I trust it now? Does the source matter?

So many similarities. SOOOO many. Maybe too many, I don't know...

I've just heard this all before... and it was fake....
