Relationships

While walking to the train station, I always think of things I can write about...but by the time I get to the train I have been distracted (normally by...oooh cute!) and so forget what I wanted to talk about


I blame my relationships on my parents. Its common to hear people say that relationships have failed because parents butted in, or they were too like their parents. Me, im going down a different track.

I was brought up in a very strict upbringing, the parents were Jehovahs witnesses. One of the things that does actually make perfect sense to me is their definition of love. In hebrew, there are many different words for love (love between a man and his brother/mother/wife/donkey) hell pollyamoury is even in the bible. So I was brought up with these different concepts, admitadly I may have been missing something from my teaching if I thought it was trying to say polly relationships were ok but meh.

I bond quite quickly with people, i think this is a good thing. Im one of those kind of people who tries to find the good (while being bitchy of course, nice mix eh). And so when I find somone who I get along with well i form a bond. Normally of course this bond opens me up to greif but meh. The trouble comes when I find somone who is attractive, finds me attractive and I get along with. This tends to confuse people. I know you can love more than one person, infact most people will agree, even if it is when pressured, that they may have felt this at some point in time.

Luckily my other half realises that yes I may love others (be that friends or anyone else) but I am in love with him.

Dont worry fair reader...it confuses me too
