History Lesson …
Not sure why, but I felt I need to post this.
Sometimes I look back and try to figure out why things happen and did my past lead to where I am today.
Back in the day, a long long time ago, I discovered that girls did not have cooties and could be pretty interesting to be around. This led to the fascinating social dance called dating, followed by going steady, and so on and so forth. Up until my senior year I dated a lot of girls. Never anything serious, mainly because I was too obtuse to realize that girls wanted me to pay attention to them. I would go out with a girl and we would have a good time. There would be lots of promise. But due to soccer, band, the rock group I was in, church activities, social activities this that and the other, I may not ask that girl out for a few more weeks. By then they had decided I was not interested in them and they had moved on. And everyone said I had a short attention span. But that is not about this. This is about the list of "long-term" relationships I have had.
CH - My first long term serious girlfriend. She and I started dating my senior year of high school. We made it together until Spring of my Freshmen year of college. I was not "faithful". We remained friends though, up until only about 8 to 10 years ago. She wore white at her wedding. It was proper for her to do so. Possibly my last "normal" relationship.
CA - She and I met in the Fall my freshman year in college. I lost my virginity to her. We met at a drunken road trip party. I tried to get serious because she was my first. She did not want that. To her I was just a fuck that lasted for a while. We were together about 3 months.
RE - She and I last about 9 months. During this time, we had at least 4 pregnancy "scares". Interesting how that happened since we ALWAYS used rubbers. Always. Almost bi-weekly breaks ups. Fighting or fucking. Fucking or fighting. She was responsible for my senior ring getting destroyed. 50% of our fights ended up with me getting slapped or hit. I slapped her back one time. This was after the third time in the argument that she had slapped me. Thank Gawd for multiple witnesses to that situation. That was a fun talk with the school cops. Emotional scars are still visible.
KR - My first wife. Bad case of "Hey, this looks like fun. Everyone ELSE is doing it, let’s do it too!!!" And that was why we ended up getting married. Emotional and physical neglect. Was basically informed more times than I can count when discussing issues I was having with the relationship, "Sorry, this is how it is. Get over it or deal with it yourself."
JA - First girl out of my marriage. First girl I ever picked up at a bar for a semi-serious relationship. Ex-coke / heroin / acid user. Had herpes. Mental midget. She had enough emotional damage that she could make a therapist rich. Hot body though. She and I only dated a few months, but she was very helpful in a lot of ways because she went out with me. She gave me a bit of confidence after all the damage my first wife had done. No sex of course.
DA - Good relationship, horrid ending. Lots of scars from that one. As with all relationships, it ended long before we actually broke up. We started to drift apart. Then she got a new position at her work. She worked 11p to 7 am. I was working at my job from 3:30p until Midnight. Her work was 15 minutes from our apartment. 30 minutes with traffic. She started getting home later and later in the morning. Then she started not getting home until sometimes in the afternoon. I would get concerned and call her. My car at the time was not always reliable. I was worried. She said those phone calls were me trying to control her. Then she just stopped coming to our apartment all together at least while I was home. After 6 weeks of not knowing where she was, if she was moving out, with all of her belongings still at our apartment, I finally had to go up to her work and inform her that if she wanted her belongings, she had a week to get them out. Security met me at the door explaining that I needed to leave. They explained that they did not want to have to call the police. There was no need for any type of an incident. Police??? Incident??? WTF??? I calmly explained to the security man (Whom I thought I was friends with) to tell DA that she needed to get her stuff out. At this point, I finally realized that she had a new boyfriend. Damn, aren’t I the smart one????? 7 months after telling her to get her shit out of my apartment, she had a baby. Not premature. No, not mine.
CI - Total and complete carnal relationship. Sex. Often. Creative. Wild. Still talk to her occasionally. If she still lived in the area I know damn good and well that she and da Missus would be full time Fuck Buddies and I would reap the benefits. Can you say FFM 3-ways???
LE - My first internet girlfriend. Oh my, oh my, did she love to fuck with the old brain pan. She kept me hanging on the edge. During this time I found out that I sometimes talk in my sleep. She would conduct "interviews" as I slept. Took notes and everything. Would drop little gems of information that she found out about me as I slept while we were out with groups of friends. She would use this information against me. She would hold it over my head. Much fun. We broke up. Stayed "friends". I met someone new and she “found out” she was pregnant supposedly with my child. Continued the mind fuck until the supposed miscarriage and for a few months on after that even. Did everything she could to destroy my budding relationship with the one who would become da Missus. LE had no interest in having me back, but she also did not want anyone else to have me.
da Missus - My current wife. LOL….I think enough of this blog has been dedicated to her, don’t you?
Not sure of why I felt the need to post all of this, but it has been a very cathartic experience.
