Devoured

Love was Delicious.

It wrapped itself around my skin 

And enveloped me in warmth.

Love was Delicious.

Then I ate it and shat it out. 

Blah.

Connect

The truth is...

I'm not even looking for love. The harder we look, the more it evades us. I am happy with the circle of friends I have, who provide me with more than I am willing to admit I deserve sometimes. But sometimes... just sometimes... the desire to connect, to really connect is there.

There are moments in my life when stress gets the best of me, and life's trials and tribulations are so much to bear. Those are the times I Wish...

Consider...

Dream of...

Contemplate...

Wallow in the beauty of 'What If?'

To have someone who provides a shoulder, 

Or an ear,

Hug, embrace, an affirming nod.

Someone who doesn't try to solve my problems

But who can hear them, and understand not just WHAT I'm going through, 

But just to recognize that I am going through it.

Someone who knows when my day is going bad

Or when I feel my efforts have not been enough

And when I simply need... 

Someone.

And he stretches out his arm to pull me near.

Saves a sweet spot on his chest for me to lie my head.

And in that near silence,

With his heartbeat, 

I feel that all will be okay in the world.

The Thrill of Heartbreak

A friend had confided in me about a girl he was pursuing, that he was sure was not as interested in him. I suggested he give up before his heart was broken. Unless... he was into that kind of stuff.

In so many words, he replied "As a mater of fact, I am" (...into that kind of stuff)

He said he liked the excitement of love and everything in between that might eventually lead to heartbreak. The 'drama' of it all.

Another friend said "Why do we eat, if we know we will eventually die?" Morbidly interesting point, lol. The purpose of life is to live it while we are here. Eat while we live, til we die. Love while we live, til we are heartbroken.

Even if it hurts to love and be broken, is it truly better than never loving at all?

I think I have loved too much to make a fair assessment. I have compared the level of elation of being in love... to the level of heartache I've felt when love ended. All I can conclude is... both are insanely overwhelming! (but obviously on opposite ends of the spectrum)

Let's hope my next blog will be about me and the falling in love aspect. Now THAT... is long overdue.

Heartbreak... Yummy! 

One Woman, Many Men

Today marked Day 2 of an ongoing online debate. The topic of "Making Things Simpler by Having a Sex Buddy".

To which I have replied: Nothing is simple when sex is involved. More specifically, a woman is less likely to have a strictly sexual relationship with a man... without the chance of feelings being involved. In turn, I was accused of setting a double standard.

As far as I knew, double standards are when you have a moral code set for one side, and not the other. I don't believe it's 'morally' wrong for a woman to have many partners, anymore than it is for a man to have them.

Example:

Fact/Opinion:

A woman is more likely to cry at the movies. A man is less likely.

Double Standard:

It is only acceptable for a woman to cry at the movies. Never for a man.

I know I'm not wrong here.

What I DO believe, is that a typical woman will become emotionally involved while having intimate relations with a man. We're just wired that way. We are more likely to 'make love', men are more likely to 'screw'. And I believe any woman who thinks she is capable of having "just sex" with a man, without having any feelings... even if they're tucked away in her subconscious... is probably fooling herself.

Cursed be this estrogen.

The Untimely & Repeated Death of Chivalry

It's not at all fair, really. A thousand kind gentlemen within reach, and one single knucklehead spoils the show for the rest of you.

At what point in time... in what country... did it become okay to approach women with overtly sexual introductions? How and when is that okay? It seems like common sense that if you are in fact interested in a woman, to bring your A-Game. Not your X-Game. Maybe some girls love that kind of attention. Some women certainly do not.

As if the message wasn't clear enough (I think he had his weewee in his other hand... which is why he couldn't ever finish a thought):

I'm sorry, sir. I'm not clear on your intentions. Please specify what you really want?

Ohhhh, okay. I understand now. Pleased to make your acquaintance?

Then, when the girl doesn't reply to your disturbing and obnoxious advances, and all else fails... go HERE:

Yeeeeah, THAT oughtta win my heart. Minutes ago you wanted to "F" my fake sweet "P", lol.

Ya damned looney.

The "Coolest Proposal Ever" Blog

 

The "Getting it Right, Probably Maybe" Blog

I am cursed!

Or maybe blessed. All depends on how you look at it.

I should have this relationship-thing figured out by now. Yet, I haven't even figured mySELF out enough to know how to properly engage in, and most importantly, maintain one.

If a guy is a total knucklehead, trust that he will find me! Love me, even.

If a guy is a decent man who takes a liking to me, it is a scientifically proven fact that I, singlehandedly, will drive the poor man to the very brink of insanity (or murder, or even worse -  windshield bashery, or a verbal string of pre-existing and self-invented cusswords).

And yet, as I have followed my female friends' relationships through their frequent facebook status updates (say that five times fast), I realize I am not alone. Not by a longshot! I'm beginning to worry that the stock of good men is dwindling, and fast! And yet, the thought of sharing this plight with a bounty of other ladies... doesn't make me feel any better.

Relationships are stewpit.

And I think I have Adult A.D.D.

Ooh, look! A marble!
