A few thoughts on relationships

There comes a time in our relationships where the things that didn't matter, suddenly do. My time here is limited, I make that clear up front. I've always been told the same thing, "It doesn't matter, I cherish the time you are here".

Lately, however, I was told I wasn't here enough and it was over. My first impulse was to be depressed, let my pain take over. However, I started thinking, in my profile I've compared myself to the Phoenix.

Doesn't he have to crash and burn to be reborn? I've decided that pain is not how I wish to exist, I've moved on. I will always miss her, but I've let her go. I am only sad that she wishes to not even speak to me anymore. I don't know what I've done, or even that I've done anything. All I can do is respect her wishes.

Peace,
Joseph

I hear you hun.

Sometimes you just can't be friends, sometimes its too hard, sometimes you just can't be friends until you have truley let go, and that takes time.

It all depends on how you go about handling it, I tend to sulk and pout for a bit, then I just gently move along, others like to experiment and jump from one person to the next.

Ive considered leaving this game SOOOOOOOOOOOOO many times over men, but I figure, they win that way and they can forget I ever exsisted, and I lose my expensive stuff!!!!

Anyways *hugs*!

Maybe, just maybe.. you're not the only one who had to crash and burn.
Maybe, we really don't know what we've got.. until it's gone.
Only time will tell.

Ay gvgeyui nihi. That will never change.

I will respond on that little bit. It's most likely something that you didn't do. Or something you didn't live up to. And has probably more to do with her expectations then with your actions. Sometimes we want something from a other, that the other will never be able to give.

It's sad but all you can do is move on. Take care. :)
