@[GhastlySecret:40097] lovely story it seemed like as the relationship broke up twice after a short amount of time it was never going to work fir the long term. That’s the essence and enjoyment of that relationship. It was meant to be a quick and happy time not a long drawn out marriage. Be thankful that you had that lovely relationship. I too had similar short term relationships which didn’t eventuate in marriage. For long term relationships, the feelings have to be reciprocated. In your case you felt your love for her was bigger than her love for you so you couldn’t make that call, you didn’t want to face rejection again. If you would have called the same scenario would have been repeated. I hope that helps. Live for the future. Don’t let the past ghosts become the present or it will be your future of dead ghosts Tc Alex |

This is one of my favourite songs and its by Gordon Sumner (Sting) \nThe words and music are exceptional\nSting wrote it after his father died \nHe likens his love for his father to a court case as if he is being accused of not loving his father. The ghostly hauntings of his father made him write this song \nThe words are poignant and reflect how a lot of father/son or even mother/daughter relationships can be fraught with disagreements, friction, animosity, jealousy, misunderstandings but ultimately there is love. \nSting is such a master songwriter that he can encapsulate these feelings between people which I’ve felt in my own life and add a brilliant tune for a deeper effect and create this whole ghost story. Amazing work by Gordon Sumner. Thx Sting \n\nWhat do you think ? |
