In the past year I have been thin...Mrs. Wonderful,<br /><br />In the past year I have been thinking about a similar sentiment, but it is definitely hard to get past because of our socialization. You said, "the expectation that as humans we are only to bind ourselves to one singular individual for the entirety of our lives despite how we and they may evolve, is rubbish".<br /><br />I want to hear more of your thoughts on this either here in reply or in another blog (look at me making requests). I ask because currently, I have been married for 6 years, but have been seperated for the last year. He is dating and Lord knows I'm trying (can't seem to meet anyone though). I feel the need to explore and see my options. However, there is a gnawing part of me that says, you should try and work it out. He has begged to the point of tears several times. It's not that I think we have evolved in seperate directions (we have, but I think with this distance we've had from each other, there is the potential to overcome that challenge), it's moreso that I love the man, but don't feel all the romantic stuff anymore. I really don't want to be out of his life in absolute terms, but I want to feel romantically inspired by the one I chose to love. I always ask myself if I'm being silly, because all I'm asking for is "infatuation"--And I wonder if I am holding out for infatuation only to end up in the same place in years to come---or whether or not this is the end and the both of us should really begin the legal process????????? Of course, I don't expect you to have the answers, I just wanna hear more on your views as they may challenge my own.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5700045582275981017.post-61681472448007307402009-06-03T22:24:42.864-07:002009-06-03T22:24:42.864-07:00I like your thought path.I like your thought path.msfullrollerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10386244583766375258noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5700045582275981017.post-86975146241998067622009-06-03T13:10:10.413-07:002009-06-03T13:10:10.413-07:00that does make the coffee thing a bit funnier.
a...that does make the coffee thing a bit funnier. <br /><br />anyhow, i've considered myself a feminist, and beyond that, an equalist for the last four years (while also incapable of being considered a lesbian). <br /><br />i wanted to suggest you to consider the idea of marriage as being undefined as anything but a piece of paper and tax breaks, without any of the social implications. which is genuinely what it is. many people live their lives in relationships outside of the legal qualifications of marriage, but still live a "married" life. food for thought<br /><br />also, as far as sexual monopolies, read up on Alfred Kinsey. <br /><br /> - gabegabe gonzalezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02295446444129587826noreply@blogger.com
