The dumped give advice on how they think they should be dumped.

Scene from Adaptation
Charlie: There was this time in high school. I was watching you out the library window. You were talking to Sarah Marsh.
Donald: Oh, God. I was so in love with her.
Charlie: I know. And you were flirting with her. And she was being really sweet to you.
Donald : I remember that.
Charlie : Then, when you walked away, she started making fun of you with Kim Canetti. And it was like they were laughing at *me*. You didn't know at all. You seemed so happy.
Donald: I knew. I heard them.
Charlie: How come you looked so happy?
Donald : I loved Sarah, Charles. It was mine, that love. I owned it. Even Sarah didn't have the right to take it away. I can love whoever I want.
Charlie: But she thought you were pathetic.
Donald: That was her business, not mine. You are what you love, not what loves you. That's what I decided a long time ago.
Donald: Whats up?
Charlie: Thank you.
Donald: For what?
Donald: Oh, God. I was so in love with her.

Kicking & Punching

Talking to Tami today in the kitchen she said,
"Remember that DJ I was telling you 'bout 'while back?"
The one who his girlfriend STAYED THE NIGHT with her ex-husband after she DRANK too much?"
I remembered. She had asked me to take his number when he was on the rebound.
"He went BACK to that girl. She's been BEATING him up. They got into an argument and she was KICKING and PUNCHING him."
This story, the one about the toxic couple reuniting, has been told too many times for me to be shocked, especially someone I've never met.
Lately, however, I've been trying to figure this love stuff out.
"What is with that?" I say, voice in the pitch of frustrated understanding.
"Y'know, being so afraid of loneliness that we'd rather be in an abusive relationship than by ourselves?
What is it about loneliness that is so horrible?"
The question is not rhetorical. I want more than anything to know.
A lot of people probably wonder.
Tami shoots back an answer.
"It's not the loneliness. It's the HABIT.
A person gets USED to all the VIOLENCE and DRAMA in their life. When it's gone they LOOK for it. They MISS it. It's been a part of their life for SO LONG they don't know what to do with out it."
I apply this to every one of my relationships and replace violence and drama with emotional withdrawal and co-dependency.

A mean game of Super Mario Bros.
Sweet and caring Christian looking for LTR - 63 (Atmore)
I'm posting an ad for my Grandmother and I'm her Grandson, She has a dance she is wanting to go do at the American Legion and is looking for a date. She's a great woman that gives way too much of herself to everyone around her so much so that I'm sure she feels forgotten about. She is a widow and has been for almost 15 years I believe. I know she loves to travel, good movies, great food (she's a great southern cook), and can play a mean game of Super Mario Bros., I also know that God is a big part of her life, so no heavy drinkers, smokers, or just overall perverted or abusive people, so if this sounds like someone you would like to get to know and you think you could treat her with respect, by all means shoot me an email and i will get you two in touch, (she doesn't use computers that much)

My love affair with whiskey - Heather Kennedy
My love affair with whiskey stemmed from a deep, black loneliness in the winter of 2006. The kind of loneliness where you sleep on your couch with the TV on every night because your bedroom is just so empty. I learned that whiskey warmed me from the inside out, like a thick hug and a shoulder rub.
Pretty soon, whiskey and I were hanging out all the time, spending every night together. Whiskey was my right-hand-man. He made me bold and fearless. He made me want to show my cleavage, fight bad guys and drive real fast. When I was at work, I missed whiskey and thought about him all day. I couldn't wait to get home to his embrace again. Whiskey made being alone...okay.
But whiskey wasn't made of roses and chocolates. Whiskey abused me. He was destructive. Some days, I woke up wanting to die. Whiskey hurt my organs and made me sick with stomach acid and blood. I couldn't eat, I lost weight. I went to the doctor and asked her to fix me, so I could drink whiskey again. But the damage was done.
In the end, all I was to whiskey was a cheap date. I guess whiskey needed his freedom, didn't want to be anchored down. I was too clingy. He moved on, as did I. When I look back now I know it was for the best.

It's been a long time.
I am hoping to find one special lady who might have the same type of problem, or similar, who also misses that man woman thing!
