Finding my bearings
What the hell do I do with myself?
There is a part of me that wants to be wild and crazy.
There is a part of me that wants to be a hermit and withdraw from all social activities.
There is a part of me that abhors the idea of dating.
And there is a larger part of me that wants to stop compartmentalizing my life.
Lustful wantings


How perfect would my phoenix look framed in the back of this vintage inspired dress? I have the perfect T-strap Mary Janes to go with the dress. Just not the $125 to shell out for the dress itself!

The last goodbye

Purging
Okay friends. It's that time, when the relationship ends, that one needs to vent and get it all out.
This may make total sense to some, and yet be nothing but ramblings to others. And frankly my dear(s), I don't give a damn which category you fall into. This is a purge. Nothing more. Nothing less.
I asked for truth. First and foremost. Nothing too complicated in my opinion but something he couldn't give me. I gave LMF the truth because the truth is always easier. And what's more I had nothing to hide. If he didn't like me warts and all...
On the other hand, this whole relationship was based on a lie that made everything so convenient for LMF. It made him still a "good guy" and above the rest of the pack.
Recently a mutual friend of ours went through a very bad spot with her guy. And he railed, hemmed and hawed at her how the boyfriend was a total ass. That he had shit in his own bed, where he ate, worked and played. That the boyfriend had proven what kind of person he was. That our friend was foolish to take the boyfriend back.... and yet it was the same thing he had done to me. In a smaller scale. But yet the same thing.
This had been coming for some time. Maybe much longer than what I would care to admit.
Last week I realized I was no longer willing to be in a relationship in which I had to shove down feelings of more because it wouldn't be reciprocated. It took even me by surprise my response to him that night. His hand on the door saying goodnight and me telling him goodbye... and yet almost 7 full days drag on in which we try to keep it together. I, wanting to keep something that was so comfortable and non-threatening. LMF ... well, ask him his true motives because I don't believe a fucking thing he ever told me at this point.
So, I find out the truth. That he hadn't been fully truthful to me since the inception. Less than 3 wks in he started his deception.
The one thing that I asked him at the beginning of the relationship, which was nothing more than a FWB situation was that if he wanted to sleep with other women, that he tell me. I wasn't asking for him to be my boyfriend or give me a level of commitment that was unrealistic. I was just asking for the truth.
All the while when I thought I had met a decent guy, someone I was becoming great friends with, a guy that gave me no reason to ever doubt his sincerity, a guy that seemingly everyone was friends with... I was sleeping with a sneaky bastard. Someone who started fucking another woman less than 3 wks in, without protection, coming back to me and not using protection consistently. He claims that he didn't sleep with anyone else because as he admitted to me "it wasn't for the lack of trying"... like that makes me feel any better.
And he had multiple times to come clean, a huge opportunity to be a bigger man and remove himself from the equation over the summer and yet he never did.
I guess the allure of the golden goose was too much for LMF to resist.
It's funny because my ex-husband time and time again hurt me with his lies when we were together. I would find them out, he'd admit it and more untruths I never suspected him of committing. It would wound me deeply but at least I knew what I was dealing with. It made it that much easier in the end because I had been battered by his lies and deceit so many times that I became numb... and the end of my marriage came with relative little upheaval. Being hit by your partner sucks but when you are so far removed from the situation, it was only bruises and marks on my flesh.
Now I feel raw, hurt, betrayed...
And the sick part... the person I have been hurt by so much is the person I want to turn to for comfort.
Glutton for punishment... yup, that's me.
