I've never had anyone, like, quote my writing before. &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;It's a tough thing relationships, and although I've been in a few, the only "real" one with Mariana is all I have to go on.  And although I loved her so much and she's a great girl, I felt... free after we broke up.  And I've enjoyed being single.  But I don't know if that would still be the case if we were really meant to be together.  Obviously not being in a relationship with someone you're not meant to be with is a good thing.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;And I think of you and David and I'm like, wow, they are *so* happy together and were definitely meant to be together, so who knows...&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;And what works for one person might not be right for another.  And in that case, lol, why try to analyze/figure anything out at all?&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;I guess the ppl I'd want to read this (questioning settling down, having 8 kids) wouldn't be the people who I usually hang out with.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;I guess I've always ended up making the safer choice in life, and by telling others they don;t have to conform, I'm telling myself it's ok for me not to as well.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;*sigh* hopefully we can have a chat about this in person soon.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;and good news, i did start a new blog on blogger.  I wrote the first post when i got home this AM... drunk. hahahaha http://djrimer.blogspot.com/&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;love you and miss you. &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;D&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;LOL - and you were totally right on about the scared/sacred typo - when in doubt it's usually a typo.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5855643183824743017/5910350405789996446/comments/default/4935216921928206804'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5855643183824743017/5910350405789996446/comments/default/4935216921928206804'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.mayumishimosepoe.com/2007/11/lovefest-on-partnership.html?showComment=1196533440000#c4935216921928206804' title=''/><author><name>Deals</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06995663217811050575</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.mayumishimosepoe.com/2007/11/lovefest-on-partnership.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5855643183824743017.post-5910350405789996446' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5855643183824743017/posts/default/5910350405789996446' type='text/html'/></entry></feed>
