Phonecall for me from the Universe

May 20, 2004 00:11

The thing that I will remember longest about Sunday night at Cambridge City Hall... had nothing to do with same-sex marriage.

( Marriage, though, yes. NOT with any tangible outcome, no. But conceptually. )

"Gee, you're not going to be able to marry her if she keeps running off and hugging other guys like this."

Well, I think my fiancee-of-the-moment might have disapproved of that anyway. ;)

Yeah, so, what was the story with that? You didn't explain!

Oh, ouch. I had some similar twinges myself, but with far less immediate temptation, since the former object of my affections is in fact engaged to marry someone else and I haven't seen him in a year (nor do I want to see him).

Just ouch.

And a hug to go with.

Ow. My head hurts.

I've never quite managed to shake the feeling that I really wanted to marry and live with a certain ex-girlfriend. Every once in a while it comes back and boffs me on the head, as if to taunt me. *sigh*

I had to break up three different times with the one person I wanted to marry before I could make it stick in my own head and heart. "If only I were monogamous and wanted children..." but I wasn't, and I didn't, so I couldn't. Don't regret the decision, and am very happy he did marry and have children. Love doesn't stop "just because". Sometimes it just *is*.
