Breakups
By misslake (Thu Nov 09, 2006 at 02:53:16 PM EST) (all tags)
i am miserable.

256 has decided to end our relationship.
i have to say, i didn't see it coming.



yes, oh yes. i am frustrated, sad, petty, spiteful, confused, hurt, betrayed, annoyed, unhappy, angry and all that stuff.

he told me sunday night.
right now, i've got a little bit of serenity going on so i thought i'd share. i don't want to risk coming online in a fit of rage and posting something regrettable.

i'm ok, as in, still going to work, still smiling and laughing at jokes. i'm not completely falling to pieces. but i am quite upset.
and at a loss for what to say or do.

husi, my friends, your continued love and support is appreciated. advice, shoulders to cry on, cheer ups, food, hugs and whatever else you might have to share will be accepted with many thanks.

So I guess I have to reassess my 'escape my current life by running to Candideia' plans.

I am sorry for your loss.

Aside from the rebound factor, as much as I may flirt and talk dirty with the lovely misslake and her kith, I doubt that any of them want to engage in a relationship with someone who is just about old enough to be their father. If anyone actually wants that, it's up to them to initiate.

Thanks for the 'sentiment' though.

the country is still here for you to run to. by misslake (4.00 / 1) #44 Fri Nov 10, 2006 at 12:26:58 AM EST
and the shawshack is still here for you to crash at.

thanks for all the flirting, it makes me feel flattered, and pretty in a creepy lolita/daddy's girl kinda way.

i'm not looking for a new marriage or long term relationship with anyone right now.
i don't think this breakup affects your invitation into our circle of "people we know IRL."

I never intended to suggest that you by greyrat (2.00 / 0) #59 Fri Nov 10, 2006 at 07:58:21 AM EST
wanted a relationship. That was debacle. And if it make it less creepy: Of course you'd never have anything to do with me! That's part of what makes the flirting fun!

Hugs and kisses for you my friend. I have always enjoyed Henry Rollins breaking up is hard to do bit. Well not really "enjoyed"- hell, shit, I HATE break ups. But I'll send it your way if you want ... the ref's might be a bit dated but wearing black and listening to the cure can easily be replaced with wearing black and listening to Useless by skinny puppy. Or Blixco. Or whatever you find yourself drawn to.


Or, I'll just have to go home and dig up a sweet Dorothy Parker poem about love and send it to you.  I am truly sorry that you are feeling so miserable.




you are beautiful. by misslake (4.00 / 2) #45 Fri Nov 10, 2006 at 12:31:54 AM EST
i have always loved your botanical name.

I said what Bob Abooey went on later to say: that things will get better. It's just that a concerned person thought that my choice of words could be hurtful to parties involved, so I figured it would just be easier to delete it. And apologies to anyone I may have unintentionally hurt.

i was both very proud and very frustrated with my wfc.

i knew that it would be weirdly too personal, and i needed to introduce the charaters of me and my beloved, but since i was too close, i knew them both too well, i couldnt' figure out a decent way of making anyone else care about the strangers on the page. so i threw it in, after only one critique and one edit. it knew it needed more "story" or "plot", but i was stumped.

i was so proud of my words, and the way that they fit so effortlessly together and accurately expressed how i felt in one moment of passion, i had to share it.

The fact that you waited 4 days to post by vorheesleatherface (4.00 / 8) #17 Thu Nov 09, 2006 at 03:53:11 PM EST
and posted a pretty level headed entry without trashing him reflects very well on you. You're a cut above the rest. Hang in there sweetcheeks. That's some rough shit to go through. You'll feel happy again soon enough. Promise.

i kept thinking, sure this is a little crappy, but it's sure to straighten itself out. so you're having a rough patch and getting on each other's nerves lately. it'll be ok, or you'll change a little, or you'll grow a little, or it'll vanish.
i had so much patience, i wanted a little less of this, a little more of that...but i didn't even consider breaking up a possibility, since i was confident on having forever to iron out whatever concerns we had. i assumed we'd have a breakthrough, a moment, or a long slow drift or fizzle, and then forget about ever feeling out of sync.

now we are both unhappy. and on the verge of crying. and not sure whhat to do next.

You know by Bob Abooey (4.00 / 10) #27 Thu Nov 09, 2006 at 06:02:54 PM EST
While 256 has never broken up with me, I've known my share of heartache.

As such I know the last thing you want to hear are a bunch of stock platitudes, like "it's always darkest just before dawn" or "I'd like to hump you like a drunken French schoolgirl at the prom" and the like, so I won't be offering any of them up.

Alas, you can take solace in the fact that you're a smokin hot bisexual minx, and I'm fairly certain those are in hot demand today. So fear not, my little pretty, happier days are just around the corner.

Warmest regards,
--Your best pal Bob


It's always darkest just before dawn? by komet (4.00 / 3) #28 Thu Nov 09, 2006 at 06:21:11 PM EST
That's not just a platitude, that's plain false. It's always darkest at the mid-point between dusk and dawn, and just before dawn it's actually pretty bright.

Is there a list of platitudes on the net somewhere? I want to make fun of them.

Otherwise it would be offered for crying on. I'll let druisan cry on me tomorrow and he can pass it on once he's back in Toronto.

There's nothing in life as unfathomable as the human heart, but still, I'm surprised.

And because everyone else thinks they're above platitudes, I'll bung in an irrelevant PG Wodehouse favourite: Plenty more onions in the stew.

Wha? by edward (4.00 / 1) #34 Thu Nov 09, 2006 at 07:13:08 PM EST
Are you sure we're interpreting this correctly?

You write "my darling husi, i am miserable, 256 has decided to end our relationship."

I read that as meaning that 256 has said that you and he will no long be posting on husi; that is, since the note is addressed to "my darling husi", the "our" refers not to you and 256 but to you and 256 AND husi.

How perfectly odd, you and 256 seemed to be rather solid-- and besides, didn't you have one of those "open" relationship type deals? Are you still going to be living together in the same place? I mean, it's still a bit weird since you and he technically have two separate rooms in a house you rent with others, correct?

I think you're both just going to stop posting here, right?

err.... clear as an unmuddied lake. by misslake (4.00 / 3) #43 Fri Nov 10, 2006 at 12:22:37 AM EST
are you some kind of grammer/sentence structure enforcement officer? isn't there some kind of leiniency granted to heartbroken wives?

256 is no longer my lover, partner, boyfriend, spouse, husband, steady, beau, man o' mine, wife, or main squeeze.

husi is an internet scoop community and blog site, a delightful collection of people i like to tell normals that i know only from The Internets.

i think i said (and meant) dear husi: 256 has dumped me. i am sad. send love.

yep. i didn't see it coming neither.
we did have an open relationship. we are still living together in the same house. we were sharing the largest room in a house we split with others. this weekend, i will move into MissTrish's former room, MissTrish and ncmt will move into 256 and my old room. 256 will move into the menagerie, all the pets will move into MissTrish's former room with me.

i cannot speak for 256, but i am still posting here. like even right now.

you'd better not be trolling me, or i'll go all proverbial on your ass and show you that hell ain't got no fury on a scorned dame such as me.

[ Parent ]

Not an officer nor troll by edward (4.00 / 1) #51 Fri Nov 10, 2006 at 01:18:07 AM EST
I was just confused. I mean, it just seemed like you and 256 had found a relationship style and pace that Just Worked for you, ya know?

You seem like the type of person to overcome this heartache and come out stronger and better for it.  If there's one thing I've learned in my life when it comes to heartbreak and failed relationships, it's that there're always people out there who, while different than your last partner, will still 'click' with you in new and interesting ways. There's a lot of fun and adventure in finding someone different but with whom you are compatible.

Big hug. Commiserations. It is surprising to me as well, but then again, I'm not really in the know about these things . . .

You sound very hurt, and that sucks that it was such a surprise for you. I know that 256 must be hurting as well, though . . . so really, hugs to both of you, if that's okay?
