close to me

[zionsstarfish]

I feel close to being myself again. It's weird to be a writer in my head but not be able to write a thing in four months. I was in a period of transition, sure - new job/career, new Boy (okay, same boy for those of you keeping track) - but writing had always helped me cope with change and this time it seemed like it had abandoned me

I have been in that exact situation. I can definitely sympathesize, and I reiterate my congrats on having stood up for yourself. It's so hard, and so important. I'm glad for your sake that you said it, and I'm very glad that he seems to be understanding. I hope he gets how not-okay that is. ♥

(And yay for your writing! ♥)

It was really hard :( Our relationship has definitely shifted... and hopefully it's an evolution. We'll see, I guess. I hope he gets it, too. Even if it's not important to him, that it's important to me should be enough.

♥!

I actually just came by to compliment you on a fic, but now I want to say thank you.
People always want to go back to the way things were before, but you can't go back, never. There's only growing, going forward, either together or not. That's all.
That's just what I needed to hear.
Thank you so much.
I'm so glad things are working out for you two, I hope they keep doing so.

Thank you.

...I have been in the same situation too, and all I can say is, dump him before you lose yourself. But........I also know people move at their own pace.

I am very determined to be strong! I care about him a lot, but not at the expense of who I am.

Thank you.

Because we aren't going to agree on everything all the time! And we're human and we're going to frustrate each other sometimes... and better to work out a way to resolve things rather than just... impotent flailing or something, yes?

BTW, I don't think I've said so, but I'm glad you're feeling better. Hooray for manly men and their imported water! ♥ for a speedy recovery!

That is absolutely true and well said.
