I'm screwed.
Literally and figuratively.
I just met my Honey yesterday and what shouldn't happen, happened. I was about to say 'unexpected', but that would have been half the truth, for in reality, I did assume meeting him again would end up in a motel bed once more.
He asked me if I felt guilty. And for some reason, I don't quite know how to answer him. All I know is that I would hurt if Bebeh would do the same thing to me. But I guess this pathetic reasoning of mine is more inclined to the fact that there wasn't much of an emotional attachment on my part, but more like my need for physical connection, for friendship.
I know, it's stupid of me to say that that meeting was for the friendship. But it is, and I could say that with at least 70% truth. Meeting him again and doing it with him even concretized what I have already known. That it is over.
If I were to chose right now as to who I'd pick, I'd go for my present imperfect man than be with my former better-than-better guy.
My current relationship is one founded in commitment and duty.
One of friendship and faith.
Of family, security and stability.
I don't have any need for a great love anymore. I have reached the peak of that and I feel truly blessed to have experienced it in this lifetime but it doesn't necessarily mean that I would like to go back there again if it would equate to so much aggravation, suffering, and hurt all around me.
What Bebe wouldn't know won't hurt him. And so applies to me, too. I'd rather be blind.
So go and send in the clowns.
