edlib Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 I took a long walk yesterday. About 2 hours worth. The park I walked in has some very steep inclines along the path, bringing you up about 4 stories of elevation in about 20 yards travel. It's a great way to get the heart rate up and to work the leg muscles. Did that a couple of times. If I could do that a couple times a week I'd be in far better shape than I am now. Better than a stair step machine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyan Farlander Posted December 11, 2012 Author Share Posted December 11, 2012 My mom is being discharged from the hospital today. She still has one tube in her lung, though. So I guess a nurse will have to visit her every day until they are ready to take that out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edlib Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 Just got notice: My ex-girlfriend got married in Mexico a couple of days ago. Well... that was fast. I haven't even had a date since she left. I guess it's time to get started on that. I suppose that torch is totally extinguished now. Forever. Feels so... final. And ****ty. I'm not happy. But, in many ways, I am relieved. It absolves me from having to care what happens to any of her stuff at this point. Goodwill, here I come! Unfortunately, it also does put into question EVERYTHING that ever happened and and was ever said between us in my mind. Makes me wonder how much of the last 2+ years was the truth or not. I'll probably never know that. It also makes me wonder if I'll ever truly trust anyone again... especially romantically. I'm not putting myself through this again... even if it means dying alone... or forcing myself to go against my nature and being the cold-hearted jerk in all my future relationships... if there ever are any. Well... I for one, will be happy to see 2012 fading over the horizon in the rear view mirror. I hope 2013 will be better. Or, barring that, that the Mayan apocalypse doesn't leave me standing to see it if it isn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edlib Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 I have no idea what's going on. Really. But that's the latest I heard. From her mom's Facebook status updates. Seeing that as far as I knew, we were still officially a couple until early October... and that she only got down there in late August, that could only a 3 or 4 month courtship/ engagement at best. Unless it was actually going on before that. It makes me question everything she ever told me. About her health. Her exes. Everything. It's sad that I'm now filtering all that happened between us this way now. That's the part that feels crummiest. Maybe she married the first guy that looked at her as a way to stay in the country. Or to have someone to take care of the kids... if she is really as sick as she led me to believe. Or maybe this was all part of a pre-existing plan I unwittingly was a big part of and unknowingly took part in. I just don't know what to think anymore. But I'm trying very hard not to actually care all that much either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyan Farlander Posted December 12, 2012 Author Share Posted December 12, 2012 Not caring is pretty hard when you have unanswered questions like that. If you successfully manage to not care, you'll have to share your method with me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edlib Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Well... I'm trying... Only time will tell if I'm successful. If there's one experience in a person's life that can form a thick callus and layer of scar tissue over a person's empathy and concern centers and cause an system-wide overload of apathy... I think I might have just gone through it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyan Farlander Posted December 12, 2012 Author Share Posted December 12, 2012 I hear that. This is kind of like a few years ago when I was involved with that girl and then she said she was seeing someone else and six weeks later was engaged. It's like...did I miss something here?

edlib Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Exactly. And it makes me feel like " What precisely did I do to deserve this?" I know I'm far from perfect... But this feels like something you'd do to get back at someone who did you a world of wrong and someone you hate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edlib Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Of course... Looking at my love life as a whole in the time I've been walking this planet, the entire thing kinda looks like that. There are days I think "Somebody up there really has it in for me!" It's a trend I'm hoping doesn't continue... But I'm not betting the farm on it.

Keyan Farlander Posted December 12, 2012 Author Share Posted December 12, 2012 Well, you never know. There might be some good reason for it. Like...some practical reason for getting married because of her imminent death. And she doesn't want you knowing about it or being involved to spare your feelings. So that would be the best-case scenario, I guess. What's the worst case? That she was lying to you the whole time about everything? That would really suck, but at least it would mean you haven't lost anything worth having. Though the toughest part always seems to be not knowing which one it is, or what combination.

K_Kinnison Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 As I have dated a psycho and thought she was "The one" only to find out she made up a reason not to like me and put my heart in a blender. Get over it, and find someone better. In fact, find a girl and screw her like the world is going to end, just like how other ladies screw you Eventually you realize that you don't NEED anyone else, and then you will find that someone that makes a satisfying life so much better because they are around Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyan Farlander Posted December 12, 2012 Author Share Posted December 12, 2012 You gotta pour this pain into some songs, man. Get that guitar out. Then we get together and get on the road. I've got the keys covered. Nitro plays bass, right? The only possible way this can end is with a number 1 album and vast riches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rogue15 Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 i hate that stupid desire to be loved. it ain't ever going to happen, cause #1 i am picky and have standards, and #2 the girls i like only see me as a friend or want nothing to do with me or #3 the girls i like have boyfriends or are interested in somebody else, or #4 they have kids. i'm looking for a girl that likes playing video games, likes running hiking and camping, has a job, isn't a flirt with everybody, and does not have "baby fever", girly girls are alright too if they can do the above as well...and someone that isn't obsessed with home ownership...i could own my own house given time for sure i just don't want to be pushed into making any insane financial decisions.

edlib Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 The sad part for me came a couple of months ago... this was just the final insult. The last nail in the coffin. This was the serious "WTF?!??" moment of the whole breakup for me. I was trying to stay positive and not get angry at her or the situation before this happened. Now I'm steaming mad, despite all my best efforts to control it. I just can't help but think the worst about her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue15 Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 sorry ed, the pain hurts, alcoholism makes it better for the worst part, trust me that's what i resorted to for like 2 months after i was dumped it numbed the pain... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edlib Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 I still don't drink... but I might try to find something else to take my mind off things. Lots of promiscuous sex, for instance. Well... If only I was that guy, that is... someone who could actually pull that off. Instead, I guess I have to put my energy into exercise, music, art, reading... bettering myself in some way. Maybe...

edlib Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Although... if there was ever a night to take up drinking, it was last night. I was in such a foul mood when I got home. First: Work sucked. A huge disorganized cluster****tastrophy. Then: Knowing I was already a bit heart-sore, the universe in all it's wisdom decided to keep finding new ways of rubbing salt into the wound. Normally, I can travel the subways back and forth to work 200+ times between seeing happy couples making out in public on the train. Last night, I literally couldn't turn my head without seeing people playing kissyface around me. Just walking the block to the station I saw 3 couples swapping spit. Then the seat directly next to me on the first train I took had a couple sucking face. Then, after not seeing her for almost 3 years, I realized I was walking behind the Japanese actress and her boyfriend when I transferred trains. That was a shock. I don't think she saw me, fortunately... and I moved to the far, far end of the platform to keep from having to interact with them. That was not something I could have handled dealing with good graces at this point in time. Then in the second train, I had Gropey McGhee and his girlfriend sitting directly next to me on the left, and a pair of tongue wrestlers directly on my right. And another smoochy couple getting cozy across from me. I couldn't escape it. I wanted to scream at the sky: "Really?!?? You are doing this to me right now?!??" If I was a more superstitious person it really would have made me think that I'm living under a curse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
