Episode XV: All I Want for Christmas

[x_boyfriend]

We began to fall apart about a week before Christmas - around this time, last year.

She would claim that it was much earlier than that, but I was never very popular for my eye for detail. I only began to notice certain things - though few and far between - when the local carolers had already begun making their rounds along my neighborhood. “Pasko

A lot of people can relate (which makes your entry interesting aside from the eloquent writing). :)

VERY touching!

Hello - you don't know me and i don't know you but somehow while bored here at work, I stumbled into your LJ. Can't tell you how or where I got your LJ from but I just could not stop reading. It even got to the point where I actually (and I'm kinda embarrassed about this) printed out ALL your entry and read it on my subway ride home. Sitting in the train, listening to my IPod and reading your journal that I almost missed my stop. My husband was stuck in traffic so was running late but I didn't mind b/c I had your entry to read. I didn't even mind the below 40 degrees weather (made even colder with the wind chill) as I sat at the bus shelter reading. Yours is probably the best I've read in a really long while. I don't write much in my journal as I find that I don't really care to write about my mundane everyday life. Yours seems to me to be more ...interesting

i have to apologize for taking so long to reply... i find it more difficult to find something to say to someone whom I seem to owe such a remarkable reply to.

in all honesty, i'm flattered you find my life so - as you had said - interesting, though i firmly believe that there are no boring lives, just boring perspectives. I've actually been trying to live your advice, by not going out of my way to look for someone. You're right about the family and friends. It seems that I've been paying more attention to them lately than ever before.

I can't say I don't miss having someone. The lack of having a sort of anchor in my life has been less than appealing to me lately, and the loss of a confidant - well, much of the same. The evenings have been longer than I would like to admit, and at times, I just find myself a bit confused for no apparent reason.

But I'm happy that your marriage is off to a great start, despite all you've gone through. Hopefully, I'll run into such luck as well. My best wishes.

You couldn’t simply blame someone for being distant.

so true. and you can't really even spot the signs until you look back. it becomes like, oo nga pala, and then you realize what was slowly going wrong and then you can count it on your fingers already. too late.

hay, your post made me remember too many things.
