People are easily bond to tragic stories. We all want him to be happy, but wouldn't care if we did not perceive this as extremely painful for him.
One wonders if in those four years, he invited her to marriage counseling, expensive vacations or any other means of being romantic with her and if she said yes to any of those attempts. |

I have more to tell. I haven't had time to tell. And I am not sure why to tell. I was before, but now things have become messy. I started here and will end here, if there is anything new to say.
There is a lot, but I no longer have the time to tell it - or the inclination. Suffice it to that your dreams can come true. And your nightmares. And everything in between. Life comes true. Live it. |

I will try to update next week. Not sure why - maybe it is cathartic. Maybe it is all this free time alone. Or the denial/chastity. I keep waiting for my natural urges to subside. Sometimes they do. Then then they re-emerge.
But things are better than I thought they would be. |

Titanium combination lock??? They don't sell those at Walmart. You have gone to considerable length to attempt to make your story believable, to some degree. Pity to have tripped on such an insignificant detail.

Devavu,
Please ignore the petty. Your story has clearly been brought to us so far at some pain to yourself, plus the time it must have taken to decide what to say, and maybe not say. You must also understand from the number of hits you have generated that many of us care what has evolved for you, we can little to help, but as you say, maybe even a summary of events may help a little. Whilst it is true that a journey of 1000 miles begins with but a single step, the converse is also true. The same journey ends with a single step too. I urge you to take it. |

We've both been reading and really enjoying D's story. He has great talent and skill as a writer. We feel like we're emotionally invested in the outcome; like we know the main characters so well. There are heroes and villians; cliffs to jump off of; cliffs to back away from. In short, his story shares the qualities of the best works of fiction.
We're saying this not to be mean or petty or lame. But the story isn't true. I know that many of you are emotionally invested in this. So are we. But a little perspective helps. And the first thing we ought to understand is that it's not true. This is no slight against D. He's done his homework. He is clearly a habitue of forums like this one. He is a gifted story teller. Fiction is always more interesting than reality. So, D, keep on writing. Then collect your posts and publish them as a book. You have real talent. |
