The Things We Later See
It's interesting how people don't truly know what they have until it's gone. When who/what they had leaves it's almost as if they were struck with a bolt of lightning. "What have I done (gasp)?" Suddenly the beauty and splendor of that person is illuminated. All that was aggravating is now tolerated, if not beautiful. While all that was beautiful before is shining in a glory so bright, your mind is blind to all that destroyed what you shared.
Sitting across the table staring at the man she wish she never left, she sighs in regret as the conversation continues to unfold. While the past is exposed, his woman is home running a mental race of endurance. In hope of crossing the finish line of hope & peace. Hope that she will still be in a committed relationship by the end of the night while having enough peace to have a good sleep. Luckily, his woman managed to still have and want to be with him after his report despite a mindless yet forgivable moment.
Until tomorrow...
His Woman

Something about fish, I think.
Live and learn.
Because it sure as heck gets better than it ever was before.
I tend to go the other direction. I see someone I left and think why did I stay so long? Why did I put up with ____? I guess maybe that's just me. :)!
It is, what it is. If it's meant to be, it's meant to be.
For me, it's opposite. Once I let something go, it's hard for me to see why I ever held on to it.
this is the worst thing ive ever read.
what was his reason for leaving?
@Utoppia - I love your philosophy and everything you write on here! Just saying!
@endlesscrowd@xanga - Thanks! you just made my morning...
i am so confused. what happened??
Well now wait, are you the woman sitting across from the guy she left, or are you the woman he's with now, knowing that he is out meeting someone who had previously dumped him? If so, you're writing from both perspectives is interesting. I get the concept behind both, although a little clarity would be helpful.
I on the other hand, go through phases - I either wonder why I left or I wonder why I stayed so long. The thing I try to do is the hardest of all, though; I just try to let it be. I figure, if it was meant to be it never would have ended. I think someone said something similar earlier, and I completely agree.
@gilly_owens@xanga - ditto
@DuckRoxInMySox@xanga - I am glad someone else sees things this way =]
@gilly_owens@xanga - trying to let it be is the hardest thing ever but life has this habit of coming at you and you can only try to change so much and only have such an effect on it. Everything else is just inevitably going to happen!
@DuckRoxInMySox@xanga - Yeah. That's why it's so hard. A lot of people have this notion that they need to change other people and control their circumstances, but they can't. Once you let go of that notion I think things are a lot easier to deal with.
I'm confused...
@RachelEliason@xanga - I feel the same way, it just usually takes me a while to get there (and by a while I mean it took me 2 years to get over one guy, and 2 weeks to get over another lol)
I was the one broken up with, and even I have regrets and I'm sorry for so many things. I am still in love with them, so it is difficult.. I feel inadequate and I'm constantly wondering what I could have done to prevent this, to really show him how I felt. And if there's a possibility for me to show him how I still feel.. But he's moved on, so I have no hope.
Your post is interesting, by the way. Quite thought provoking.
@eabyourheartout@xanga - i agree, i'm the same way.
I think the French put it best when they said ...c'est la vie ( that is life) Thats what love is all about sometimes we make mistakes by leaving the partner but it is what it is learn from your mistake and move on.
@gilly_owens@xanga - exactly! I believe everyone inevitably changes everyone else in some small way because that's just how life is, but i don;t believe in trying to change someone.
@DuckRoxInMySox@xanga - It's always refreshing to find someone who has a similar mindset as I do! :)
@RachelEliason@xanga - no- i do that, too! i look back and go, "what was i thinking??" haha sometimes love really is blind!!
Quite a few seem to be confused as to who I was, the woman across the table or the woman at home. I am the woman at home (the man's woman) . I am pleased to know a few were able to figure out the position I was playing, The huge hint was in the signature. I will continue this saga as the story of my life continues to unfold ;)
The hardest thing to do is to let it be...I'm trying but it's difficult
