We have all been there right? You know thoughts painful break-ups that you were sure that you would just die from. You might find you self talking over and over about it again torturing your poor friends. They listen to you over and over again till they can't take it any more and then they threaten to jump of the 40th floor of their building. Sure, you tell them you won't talk about it again; only to bring it up next week at your workout date done half-ass. It's like you can't help yourself the roses don't smell anymore, the sun doesn't shine as bright, you don't care if you fart in front of others, to go out on dates you don't want to go on because your friends make you go (I mean they push you out the door and lock you out until midnight) and the light fun person you used to be fades away never to be seen by the light of day.
A couple of weeks ago US Marshall and I decided it was time for us to be exclusive that meant we had to cut off the people we were seeing. Dating in Dallas is not as easy as it may seem. Now, I know what your thinking... did I really cut off all the people that I have been talking to, seeing and dating for this guy? Yeap, first time in my life I ever cut off people that I knew would bother him. Surprisingly it was much easier for me than I thought it would be; however I did get some resistance.
Here is were the experience in dating men you think you love and break-up with only to find out later you might have not really loved him at all. I imagined all the torture I put myself through and my friends. I really they almost jumped to their deaths out of a 40 feet building. I would have been hauled off to jail because they prolly put it in their will. I can see it now if they jumped to their death I was the culprit behind it. It would have been torture enough to know that they died because of me; a crime of passion.
One of the guys I went out with (and I repeat) I only went out with him once. This is an important detail because he decided to text me a million times; no I strike that 20 million times in one day. I told him that I was exclusive with US Marshall guy. We had a few text messages back and forth about football and basketball games but that was it. I didn't encourage him but I did answer most of his text to be kind but not leading. Anywho, it got to the point where 1: I knew he must have drank a lot of alcohol 2: or he was on some kind of drug. Turns out he was just waisted on alcohol. I felt bad for him but I really didn't want him disrespecting my man. He of coarse apologized profusely the next day. I told him that this whole stalking situation had nothing to do with me. Come-on we all have had our moments time where we borderline crazy and put in a padded white room; things would work out for him I promised. We can't see into the future and I have no crystal ball but I knew he was not the one for me.
I told him you see we have to go through bad times and sometimes it very painful but that you get through it because it was not right for you. I lived through those times where I thought I was in love; I thought I had it all, but it turns out I didn't. You see thoughts time set you up for a man or woman that will truly love you even when your crazy drunk, even when you couldn't wait to pee so you had to pull over and you pee on a bush. He loves you when you don't wear any make-up, wear your PJs all day long; He loves you just because you are you. He's not jealous of the love I have in my heart that you have for others and he needs to see you all of the time. US Marshall knows what it is like to care for others even when they don't care about themselves and he knows what it is like to take it home with you never to be forgotten. You see thoughts years of loving the wrong guy lead me straight to him. If I had not gone through the pain then I would have never known. Now I know what love really looks like and I know what love truly feels like...and you know that funny girl that laughs at all the little things in life is starting to come back from the dead. My workouts arn't half ass anymore, the roses smell again, the light shines brighter but the best part of it all is that my heart loves again; it runs deep in my veins.
P.S. To the end of the ocean till the very last grain of sand...and there you have it!I'm back bitches!
