Just got 2nd postcard in which it is mentioned that boyfriend was "blessedly wonderful."

    This is one of my non-negotiables.
meh.

So how about this idea: Don't make a big deal out of it. My grandfather stated firmly, "Love is usually not based on common mentalities and similarity of religious and social ideologies."

S/O will gradually get more educated through life experience and perhaps personal interest. Many men don't really get "women's" issues. A lot of their ideology is just ignorant babbling.

Chances are, more likely, that this is just the tip of the iceberg and one day you'll move on to someone who shares more ideology with you.

Eh, I wrote that postcard in January.

lets just say I set myself up for failure in my romantic choices because that's easier than us failing for reasons outside my control, eh? Yeah. Current s/o and I are likely to break up. Things I'd like to talk about in that regard? Closing in on 0.

Jan 8 actually. Turn-around time between blessedly wonderful and fucking asshole seems pretty quick. I do love the postcard though. It says, "Something has to start when something else ends."

I think you and flags should have a meetup. also bfx. I'm not suggesting a three-way, but they each seem pretty adorable in their own 30-years-younger-than-me way. Did I say 30? I think I mean oh fergettaboutit.

I guess. What are reasons for romantic failure outside of our control? All of them??? You think you can avoid giving in to an infatuation? I doubt it.

Note: Hubski, this is a private conversation. Just go away or we'll take it to pm/IRC.

Damn, I hope I can make steve spit out his cheerios giggling. If not, is life worth living?
