Re: Relationships and Pain (a rant)

Sometimes I think I do take my relationship with my adult ladyfriend for granted when it comes to this. Accourding to your post, I'm one of the luckiest people alive. You already know a good deal about my ladyfriend, Diss, so I'll spare a lot of detail here. The most important thing is that she said that me being attracted to little girls doesn't bother her and she doesn't judge me or think I'm strange becaure of it. We don't talk about it very often, but I know that it doesn't bother her as she's told me on the occasions that it was brought up. We also have almost everything in common. I've also had self esteem issues when it comes to physical attractivness, but she makes me feel attractive.

Also, I personally feel that long distance relationships can't work. And with someone like you, I feel you'd need someone close by. Someone who can show up and be with you at a moments notice. You honestly never know what could happen when it comes to relationships, Diss. When I met my current ladyfriend, it was in high school. We were in the same class, a class she almost didn't take meaning she wouldn't have met me. I was in the middle of a relationship already and as it turned out, we secretly wanted to be with each other, but neither of us knew the other felt the same. I knew it would never happen because I was in a relationship and I always thought she didn't like me that way. Roughly a year after I met her, we were together. In that time, my relationship fell apart because apparently, I didn't take life seriously, was childish, and enjoyed a good joke and adventure now and then. I was left because of that and for some reason, I was devistated. My current ladyfriend helped me through and through being friends with her since we met (I even revealed my attraction to her while we were just friends which should show how much I trusted her), I realized we were so very similar. All of the barriars keeping the "Dude, you're in love with this girl." thoughts at bay fell down and we ended up spilling it to each other. The point is, I never would have guessed that that would have been the way it went down.

You never know how things will play out.
