The Bloggers With The Most To Say
it's good to be a part of something, or, it's good to be apart from something
So, I'm super excited to have joined the 20sb site. It's really straight-forward and I had ZERO trouble editing my layout (Blogger gave me a hell of a time learning how to do their crap!), which is a major plus in my book. Simplicity is key to grabbing my interest. The first place I jumped in to was the Chatroom, where Orion, Lily, and Harley were all talking and just generally being super awesome. When I joined in to the conversation, it wasn't awkward and I didn't get any "who's this freaking n00b?" crap that I've gotten in other chatrooms (IRC chatrooms are particularly bad with this). Honestly, I just felt great to already be welcomed in to the community like this! Not to mention, Orion had swiftly posted a welcome comment to my profile, so that was pretty cool too (unless he's like MySpace's Tom and it's automated... But I'm pretty sure he isn't).
So, that's my heartfelt shpeal about how awesome you guys are in this community. Obviously I only have three names to drop right now, but that's after only 20 minutes of "integrating" myself, so I'm sure there are waaay more of you out there that I ought to be mingling with haha.
In other news, I'm single now. I have to keep telling myself that it's good to be apart from my ex--we were a destructive couple, despite how deeply we loved; not just each other, but everything. We were full of love, but couldn't make it work. And now my brain is freaking out while my heart is trying to mend itself. Anyone else go through a "it's better for the both of us this way" kind of break-up? I need some backpats and smiles sent my way through this, I think! :[

I'm hoping that's the case. We were linked in a lot of things, and it's just hard to really get back on the horse and have at those things without her--she helped bring me closer to God again and encouraged me to read my bible more often and all. There are plenty more examples just like that, but no need to bore you, I'm sure you understand. I think I'm going to take advantage of that 3 deep breaths method more often to give myself a fighting chance.

I am actually a robot in disguise, but don't reveal that to anyone.
It's good that you have recognized a destructive relationship. Most people stay in those because it's 'comfortable' and 'easy.' Never good for either parties. I was in a long distance relationship and after six months, we both saw that it really wasn't going to work out if we only saw each other once a month. Still good friends, but it would have been worse if we remained attached. Don't worry, it becomes easier with time.
