Life is good ...

so when do the bombs start falling?

I'm very happy right now.  I'm bouncy.  I had to say it because I'm so happy and I can't keep it silent but no one that I talk to about stuff like this is online right now so I'm effusing all over LJ.  This scares me.  It can't possibly remain this good for very long.

I'm glad things are good. And I understand the fear of repeating past mistakes. I've been pondering that one a fair bit myself lately. A fair bit of the early part of your post applies to my life as well.

A fair bit of the early part of your post applies to my life as well.

And I for one am glad to hear that about both of you.

Yeah... I've gotten involved with B and tacit... no wait, that's not the bit that applies, nevermind.

Beware of self fulfilling prophecies of failure.
I'm going through fits with one of my sweeties now where she opened up about some things & told me "Everyone I've shared this with has rejected or left me."
Since then she's gotten really paranoid & started to perceive everything I say & do as an attack or criticism & had used that as an excuse to close herself off & push me away.
It makes it hard to succeed if you're sure you're gonna fail.

Yes, I'm very much aware of the threat of self-fulfilling prophesies. Fortunately, I don't see the end of a relationship as an automatic sign of failure, nor do I believe that the possiblility of getting hurt is reason enough to avoid the pleasure that comes before the pain
