Can I just say, and I'm just being honest...

[Edwardo Piet]

[...]Stop thinking that you shouldn't approach me. That I'm stuck up or too much of a goody-two-shoes or not like you somehow or whatever the hell you think I am that scares you off... even when I'm just trying to be friendly. Stop fucking dodging and holding back and crossing me off your list. I'm not any of what you think of me. I'm not some alien organism. And I'm not taken. God damn it.

Why can't yall treat me like a human being? I want to be friends. Why can't you accept that without looking for some ulterior motive? [...]

This is the story of my life. And this is why I hate RL.

Those who don't approach me because I'm 'too friendly' or 'too nice' and they think I must have an ulterior motive can fuck off. Why must I be unapproachable?

I can relate to this so much. I'm fucking 28 and this is my life story when it comes to RL.

In fact, to a lesser extent, it happens to me online too

Your arse looks like two rhinos fighting under a blanket.

CIJS- you did me favor. You showed back up in my life uninvited, unwelcome, and unwanted. You texted me with the sole intention of tormenting me. Saying all about how you know where we are and what you will do when we least expect it. At first I was faking my resolve but as I was telling you I was convincing myself. I am not yours. They are not yours. We do not belong to you. And we are not afraid. I know exactly what I need to do to keep myself and my children safe. Also, I'm not a gun person and I don't believe in violence unless absolutely necessary. I cannot say the same for the godfather of my children, who together (in a meeting with his wife and I) decided it would benefit us all to live in a two family home and has been staying here ever since. So if you do decide to come sneaking past my locked doors, security systems, and pitbulls please do be prepared for a bullet hole to the forehead. I will not be moved.

Fuck romance hard in the ass with a freshly peeled Guinness-World-Record-Winning sized carrot.

Love? Oh I love love. Just fuck romance in the butt with the world's largest Giant Redwood Tree.

[Foxaèr]

Long term relationships kill romance, true fact.

[Edwardo Piet]

Or maybe it's the other way around.

[Thumpalumpacus]

There's a place in my life for romance ... just have to choose carefully.

[Edwardo Piet]

I think it all depends on the definition of romance.

[Edwardo Piet]

I mean... do I want love and a relationship? Yes. Do I want lovey doveyness like I used to? Well, I certainly won't fight against the feeling but I don't seek it out. Not looking for that kind of romance anymore.

I'd never say no to harmless and fun casual sex but I'll always feel unfulfilled without someone to share my life with. I'll always be looking for more.

I think someone I'd want casual sex with isn't necessarily someone I'd want a relationship with but someone I'd want a relationship with is necessarily someone I'd want casual sex with.

Sorry if I'm oversharing. Lot on my mind. I blame the beer.

CIJS and so on.

I appreciate your being comfortable with me enough to confide in me all your innermost feelings and secrets, but I need you to recognise that I'm human too, with a human's needs and desires and all that that entails. I'm right here. You need to know that my story isn't over yet.
