As for my 4 hours, thats face to face time.....computer time is like playing inside my own head. And I can walk away at any point.
Favorite grocery store? Hmmmm, Food Lion because it's closest to my house.
I’m glad you got a good laugh. :-) I think it can get hurtful both ways. My personal feelings are simple, don’t limit yourself by deciding you are better off alone but also don’t be desperate seeking anybody to fill a void whether it is the one in your heart or your bed. Basic responsibility that is the way I see. Make decisions and be willing to accept the consequences and don’t set up conditions that are so limiting that you cut yourself off from experiences that you might find enjoyable though uncomfortable at first. I tried Surfing, first time I felt like I’d been beaten up and swallowed the pacific ocean.(I don’t even want to think what I swallowed) lol
I do agree it is better to be alone than being with someone that makes you unhappy. Marriage is tough as you already know but I’ve found it is a lot about finding ways to be happy and also make each other happy. Sometimes my wife and I don’t make each other happy but sometimes we do and we have a choice about whether we dwell on and magnify the unhappy times and our imperfections or whether we work as a team and comfort each other along the way and that is really nice. Life isn’t an amusement park but it can still be filled with periods of excitement, joy, and treasured memories and even more important shared hopes and dreams.
Computer time for me is largely work. (Just got off a call from India) It is also an outlet. It is nice being able to share discussions like this. It is hard to have this kind of discussion in the real world without someone getting emotional and pissed off but then again I’ve been known to speak my mind regardless. I like people who speak their mind. Well enough of that...now back to the important stuff.
Walmart or Kroger is where we usually end up they are close to the house. We have been going to Target more regularly though, that is where I usually buy my marked down computer games, though I hardly have time to play them anymore since I travel so much. Nice thing though is vacation is almost here and California is calling.:-)
