two... Mr. Golden.
Again,
thanks everyone for responding. I really wish we had the old way of
communicating (chat) it would make of made this debate much easier. But I'll
take what ever I can get and in this situation I can see that not everyone
agrees fully with one another. So, here's my thoughts:
It's
hard to make decisions based on frantic moments. Yes Princess baby, I know that
I need to change the way that I am dealing with my situation with Mr. Golden but
I don't think cutting him off is the best thing I can do. Yes I know that it's
gotten out of hand and that I deserve better than the way things are going for
me. But I haven't been exactly honest w/ the negative emotions because I have
been trying to give him space and allow him to learn who I am. He has
managed to get under my skin. If his reactions were blunt contempt, then I could
justify turning my back but I do not feel he is doing what he is doing to simply
be mean. This man has been through a lot over the years and wishes nothing more
than to gain custody of his children. He feels that he is sacrificing himself by
choosing Alex (I agree that he is because Alex treats him wrong). His eyes contradict
what his actions show. he isn't happy, nor is he content with what he is doing.
This is why I can not just walk away and pretend that I'm fine.
Yes
Sharon, I know that I have had long distance relationships before but honestly
it never made me happy. I figured out what I want in life and what I can accept;
long distant relationships isn't one of those things.
Yes
I could wait and continue with my plans to attend Central Washington University,
get my degree and then move if needed but that isn't going to be the best
emotional decision for me. If I am ever to have the type of relationship I want
to have with this man then I am going to have to find a way that will fill both
of our needs.
No
Sharon, I don't need a man but I want one to share my life with one. I am not
attempting to smother him. I do not make demands on him. Matter a fact, I have
given him the last ten months of utmost patience. (He said that I've been way
too patient and if it had been him he would have told himself to fuck off before
now) Even now as I struggle w/ heart ache, I have told him to do what he needs
to do; even if I don't exactly believe he will return. I've tried to muffle my
cries and paint a supportive picture in hopes that he will change his mind and reconsider.
If that does not work then there is nothing else that I can do. (Can't force
love, it's natural or nothing and I believe that he does love me.)
As
for moving to Spokane, it is simply a day-dream. I would discuss w/ him before
actually doing. It's not something that would happen over night even if I decide
to move. (No vexy this decision is based on much more than Mr. Golden but
if you want to slap *bends over*) It comes with many perks though; such as:
1.
a new environment for the kids. (one without the current people)
2.
Several Universities that could enhance my educational future. (Washington
University costs about the same as Central
University which is where I am suppose to be going; either way it's going to
cost.)
3.
Living conditions that appear to be less expensive.
4.
A better ability to continue my relationship w/ Mr. Golden.
I
guess that pretty much says it all... I don't know what is going to happen or
how I am going to react when it does. All I know is that my brain is responding
to the pain and right now I am trying to find different ways to decrease that
pain...
