Yesterday and today has consisted of me not doing hellish much.
I am on a downer.
Mixture of stuff, work, home, errant daughter, her staff.
Cannot be doing with things.
Friend, called on mobile from where he is on holiday, telling me he'd text his ex.
Told him off, he won't get closure.
Also personally I think his ex is an arse, as he dumped my bff JUST before his 40th! Days before.
But my bff can't seem to let it all go.
So we had our usual argument over how many miles it was between here and Spain!
Also watched Persuasion, any thing by Jane Austin and I am hooked.
But had me thinking, the premise of the story, meeting falling in love and then parting and then meeting back 8 years later. And of course falling in love and having the happy ever after..
But is that a good thing?
Going back?
I know if I go back to visit somewhere I am usually unhappy about how much its changed, ie Mallorca, childhood memories of having a very Gerard Durrell existence on an island in the Med.
But now if I go back, its changed no memories. ( haven't been back in 11 years now).
Would I want to meet someone I'd had a relationship in my past and re ignite it?
Colleague in work has done that after 20+ years! Its working a year down the line!
But would it be right for everyone, or more importantly for me?
I don't know.
I know I am fed up but I doubt its got to do with me being single.
And yet I go back to folk being jealous of my life.
By heck if they are they are tremendously sad.
Food for thought, I know, like you, returning to places is usually a disappointment as they have changed, and no longer fit the memories. Returning to people, well relationships are always a gamble, but I cant think of anyone I would want to go back to, a few I would quite like to see, just curiosity, but that's all. mmmm
