Damn Blank Room...
I don't know what it is about this time of the year, but for some reason my mind seems to completely empty itself of any and all thought. Yes. The same blank room that I had this time last year has once again returned, and because of it, all of my creativity has vanished along with it.
I guess it's the weather....the windy, gloomy, cold days just seem to bring about and stir up saddening memories. Another factor seems to be that I can't help remembering what things were like this time last year....and how over the course of ONE year my life has changed so drastically.
There have been times lately where I've wished that I could simply wave my hand and go back to the way things used to be, how they were so simple and uncomplicated. And sometimes, just SOMETIMES I wish I would have waited to have a child.
I've recently come to realize that maybe I did rush into things. (I know I did when it came to having a child.) When I said yes to dating Az, I told him "There's only one way that I'll date you. 1) You have to take me as I am, flaws and all, and 2) You have to take it slow."
Well, he took me as I was, but as for the take it slow part, we ended up having sex within the 1st week that we started dating. (It tooks me 6-7 years TOTAL before I ever made that decision with my ex....just to put things into perspective for you all.)Because of that decision, Az and I never had the time to develop our relationship. Our relationship, at that time, was based on our carnal desires, our sexual hunger. We only sat down months into my pregnancy and decided to work on our relationship, to develop it. Because of how fast our relationship progressed, and the lack of development, there have been questions I've been asking myself... What would have happened had I waited to date Az? Would it have been easier and less painful to get over my ex? Would Az and I be having so many problems had I waited?
As of today, we still have problems, things we need to work out, but as least we're working on them. We've both agreed that if our relationship is going to last, then we can't sweep any problems we have with each other under a rug and ignore them; that it's best to deal with them the instant they pop up. And when the problem's initially brought up, yeah, it may hurt, but by discussing the problem we resolve it, and by resolving the conflict we only strengthen our bond, which strengthens our relationship.
So to any of you out there having conflicts with your girlfriend/boyfriend, fiancee or spouse, if you truly love them, don't ignore problems. If you notice they seem to be angered by your mere presence, or try to pull away from you, make an attempt to talk to them. And if they don't want to talk to you, then drop the subject; they'll tell you what's bothering them when they're ready.
And Az, when you read this, just remember that I love you with every breath I take, and with everything I am and have.... I love you, Az...
Vetah, take care of yourself and get this issue with Cora figured out. I know you love her too much to just throw your relationship with her away, and if you are willing to just let her go.....you're dumber than I thought...
