I asked for space, so she moved to Seattle

[RetroLounge]

without even saying goodbye. Should I have taken it personally?

:shrug:

[graywarrior]

1. Bwahahahahaha ! ! ! ! !

:rofl:

[RetroLounge]

6. ...

:9

Silly me...

RL

[Wapsie B]

2. Damn, I wish mine would.

That'd be enough space for me. :P

[RetroLounge]

5. ...

:rofl:

I hear ya!

RL

[SarahB]

3. What about the kiddos?

I hope they're with you. :(

[RetroLounge]

4. Oh, not THAT she... Someone more special...

I should be so lucky that the STBE left and left the kids with me. I would :bounce: for joy.

The kids are here with me right now. My 9 yr old is teaching my 6 yr old how to play Super Mario on the game cube. It's cute as hell!

The STBE isn't worth worrying over anymore. I've shed my last tear over her, written my last poem about it, lost my last night's sleep over it, and let it control me for the last time. I should have filed 2 years ago...

[SarahB]

7. I'm sorry about the other situation too.

:hug:

I saw your post and got worried about you. All I could think of was, "Damn, this guy's had enough heartbreak." I not glad things didn't work to your liking, but I am glad it wasn't what I thought it was. :pals:

[RetroLounge]

9. Well, I've stopped trying to judge if things are to my liking

or good or bad. I am a piss-poor judge of that.

and since every new beginning needs an ending first, I believe that only good things will be in store for me.

I have hope, that fatal, dangerous thing...

RL

[lost-in-nj]

13. If I am ever in Wisconsin

I will come say HI
actually my kid was there twice.... to the Pierce firetruck factory...
we bought one from you ....:P

btw i am bad.....and dangerous....

:silly:

:hi:

lost

[RetroLounge]

17. Sounds good...

:crazy:

RL

[GOPisEvil]

8. I can say "hi" next time I'm there.

I head that way quite frequently, although I head east soon after landing. :)

[RetroLounge]

10. Might not be a good idea

:rofl:

RL

[GOPisEvil]

11. That's why "hi" is in quotation marks.

:D

[RetroLounge]

14. Just wave toward downtown. It's safer...

:D

RL

[GOPisEvil]

15. Will do.

If you don't see me after this Labor Day, though, call the cops. :D

[idgiehkt]

12. don't know what it's about

but here are some hugs> :hug: :hug: :hug:

[RetroLounge]

16. Thanks

:hug:

Grieving is a weird process...

RL

[wildhorses]

18. be careful what you ask for --

[RetroLounge]

21. An older wound, but it opens up occasionally

thanks...

RL

[yewberry]

22. I'm in Seattle. Want me to do something awful?

Seattle-style, I mean.

I could leave a strongly-worded note or instruct her barista to use whole milk instead of 2%. Maybe mix some garbage in with her recycling?

Yeah, that'd show her.

[RetroLounge]

25. You are evil...

proceed...

:hi:

RL

[Writer]

23. I'm not sure what this is, but I'm sorry to hear about it.

:hug:

[RetroLounge]

26. It's old and mostly gone, but crops up occasionally

so I let it out and it goes away again...

:hug:

RL

[RevCheesehead]

24. Why on earth would anyone move to Seattle,

when Oostburg is just down the road?? :loveya:

[RetroLounge]

27. Now that's what I said!

But Oostburg is too special to share with anyone but you...

:loveya:

RL

[crim son]

28. At this stage, NO. You shouldn't take it personally.

:hug:

[RetroLounge]

29. ...

[Callalily]

30. Sometimes not only

do humans suck, but life sucks too.

Looks like you could use a few extra >>>>>>> :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug:

[RetroLounge]

31. Can always use a few extra hugs...

:hug:

RL

[La Lioness Priyanka]

32. no you should take it personally, but it probably hurts regardless

:hug:

[RetroLounge]

33. I did hurt, a lot, for a while...

Now it just comes up now and again. A song, a scent, some reminder. It gnaws a bit, then goes away.

Sometimes I think it's gone for good... sometimes...

But if I keep it to myself, it gnaws a lot longer and gets worse...

:hug:

RL

[somewhere_out_there]

34. Sounds to me like you should stop messing with more than one at a

time....seems like your track record sucks....but whatever, dude.

[RetroLounge]

37. Seems to me you have no clue

But nice to see my stalker is back. Say hi to J...

RL

Oh, and you should read the whole thread before commenting on things you obviously know NOTHING about...

[RetroLounge]

44. You say "High Maintenance" like it's a bad thing...

:D

RL

[HughBeaumont]

50. Because for ME, it always was.

Especially Fiance #2.

Holy. SHIT.

Nearly swore off of pale pseud0-goth brunettes for LIFE. It was that bad.

[RetroLounge]

51. "Nearly swore off of pale pseudo-goth brunettes for LIFE"

Holy Shit Dude! That IS bad...

RL

[HughBeaumont]

52. You know how I NEED THEM!!!

I love my glasses-wearing, tat-speckled, bar-in-every-orifice, pale-skinned SuicideGirl types.

:thumbsup:

RL

[BarenakedLady]

40. Sorry dude

That sucks.

:hug:

[RetroLounge]

43. Read upthread

It's an OLD wound, but something prompted something in my mind about it last night, and I just posted this thread as a way to get it off my mind.

thanks for the hug, anyhow. :hug:

I see my thread brought out my stalker again :rofl: - Maybe it's her, sleepless in Seattle?

RL

[BarenakedLady]

46. So I see...

Sorry about that.
