This is gonna be long and rambling. You have been warned. I first did a blog like this and about a month and a half later I ended up in a relationship. This isn't being written in the hopes of dating again. This is more to make me remember what happens in a relationship and keep me out of them. During my last relationship that was the shortest one I've had in my adult life there were a lot of ups and downs. The downs I will blame on the fact that I refuse to change my ways in terms of communication.
My last two relationships were long
distance but with this one it wasn't so far that I couldn't travel.
The fact that I even left the state surprised my friends because
everyone knows that I just don't travel. I like where I am. When she
came we were together all the time and when I visited her we were
together all the time. And it was good. But the internet? Oh, the
internet. Any time there was a problem it was during instant
messaging. That stuff gives people the chance to be a different
person and say things that they would never say to me over the phone
or to my face.
That relationship lasted (including
when we “broke up”) about five months. Honestly, the fact that we
lived in different states made it easier to get over. That and the
fact that almost every conversation over the internet ended with
anger. One of my best friends asked me often if I was okay after the
split and I told her that I was. I was mostly confused. Why? Because
I was just being myself. There was nothing that I lied about but she
didn't believe what I was saying or doing. One of the problems was
the fact that I talk to a lot of women which is discussed in the
first Why Isn't Dante Dating blog.
