As the proud collector of failed relationships, I can say there was a point in each relationship where I was truly happy; however fleeting that moment may have been, it was there nonetheless. I think for any relationship to work, there has to be a foundation. Mutual respect (and adoration for me!) is a good start. Communication (which I’m still working on!) is huge too. If you can’t tell the person how you feel, how do you expect to grow together as a couple? I learned that lesson the hard way!
Looking back, there are so many comparsions I can draw between my exes. Is it unusual for patterns to repeat themselves? I don’t think so; but some don’t need to be repeated. Some we have control over, some we don’t. Also, for some reason, people outside the relationships can see the cracks & flaws quicker & faster than those in the relationship. Maybe some are worth listening to but some definitely aren’t.

How about to visit? Anywhere in the world; take your pick! I’d love to take a trip back to Ireland. I’d go to Australia, New Zeland, & Thailand. And someday I hope to make it to Prague - I hear it’s one of the most beautiful cities in the world!
I’m tired……..
Today I’m just tired, weary & worn out. I’m starving too; all I can think about is what I should do for lunch and I just can’t decide! It better be something good; I’m at job 2 again tonight and may not have time to grab anything.
So Hecate’s decided to bring up snuggling; a fine topic for a Monday morning. I’m not big into snuggling either; well I take that back – it depends on who I’m snuggling up to! Sometimes you can snuggle with someone and it can be the perfect fit, other times it’s all knees & elbows and nobody gets comfy. But since I’ve been snuggle-free for quite some time now, I’m hardly qualified to comment anymore!
