Well the last time I wrote we were in a bit of a rough spot. Things got better, things got worse. So we aren’t together anymore. He’s been very depressed and overwhelmed with school and work. We decided to take a break so he could get himself back to center. For the six years we’ve known each other we’ve taken several breaks… actually it’s really been friendship with an occasional romantic encounter. I do love him and I didn’t fight this time apart because, well I don’t know, sometimes you just need to be alone for a while…
Things have been kinda hard lately. School has been stressful, work has been painful, my boyfriend and I are on a “break” and I’ve recently gotten bad news about my health. The new people I’ve met have been wonderful and are bringing my spirits up. I like them a lot and I hope that I can do the same for them.
