I loved the objective!

the SICKSIDER · June 2, 2002 at 11:47 am

that was brilliant.

ConsciousMother · June 2, 2002 at 12:23 pm

That was fucking brilliant. But my favorite part was:
“to work in a friendly, loving and gentle environment that gives ample opportunity to breathe, and to grow, and to be able to fulfill my full potential”
because that describes both what I want not just in a relationship, but from life in general.
Kudos. Major kudos.

Wow….*boggle*
Thank you so much everyone for your great comments! When I put this up, it just seemed like a silly thing that I did because I couldn’t think of anything really constructive to say. I think I got the idea from somewhere, but I can’t imagine now where it would have been. I must have poured more of myself into it than I was thinking I had, but for that, I am glad. There were some things that needed to be said. :kissy:

Dang it. My first comment got ruined.
Tricia… that is a dear john letter if ever i saw one.
I am amazed at your writing abilities…the fact that time and time again you bear your heart and your feelings here in an effort to rise above all “this”. You are a brave brave lady….and I love you.
Keep growing and becoming the person you’re destined to be.
