F*ck The Nay-Sayers
So some people who’ve found this little blog of mine love it, others have cautioned me privately that it might ruin my chances of finding someone special…because obviously if you have opinions and aren’t afraid to talk about certain “unmentionable” subjects, obviously you aren’t capable of being loved. Most of the people who have read this blog have done so without comment.
Which I find interesting. Even moreso when I see how many hits I may get in a day. 3 views of each and every post I’ve written tells me that people do find what I have to say intriguing enough to read the blog in its entirety…but they apparently aren’t brave enough to comment.
And I do want comments. Good. Bad. Indifferent.
Even if you are of the opinion that by my honesty, I am condemning myself to a solitary life.
I’m not, by the by. Like my tattoos, my honesty is a pretty good way to weed out people who I probably shouldn’t invest too much time or emotion in.
This is not to say that when I am in a relationship again, I am going to blab every little detail. I won’t. I never have, and I never will.
Someday, the right person will appreciate every last thing about me, flaws, cracks and all…and that is what keeps me going. The knowledge that someday I will find real, lasting love.
Because I deserve it.

I love how you write. :3
You’ve got style.
Well thank you =)
I’ve always written in this style…words consume and inspire…
100%, right on. For sure, there’s an “emotionless epidemic” in our society. People are scared to be seen as human – flawed … uh-oh, the “F” word;).
Keep being authentic and having sensitivity (not numbing yourself with distractions/running away from emotional connection). “AAAHHH, ‘vulnerability’ – I don’t know who I am, other than who I compare my “self” to in the media!! :0 AAAHHHH, go back to talking “media,” “weather,” “objects,” and “celebrities” – “I’ll take ‘P-Diddy’ for $500, Alex – that’s my ‘safe place’ – AAAHHHH!!”;)
“…This is not to say that when I am in a relationship again, I am going to blab every little detail. I won’t. I never have, and I never will.” – YES, it’s called REAL modesty and honoring the unique union you share, exclusively – different/special/sacred from “all the rest” (of the world). Not everything is for everyone’s access.
“A boat kept in harbor is safe, but is that what it is made for?” – anonymous.
“Safe” people want everything to be homogeneous – that is, to be just like them, without lowering their self-righteousness (“I’ve ‘arrived’ – Look at me, I’ve got stuff!…”).
They can’t bear to acknowledge that people outside of their self (or outside the clones in their social circles) also have a piece of G-d and unique gifts/contributions that you can’t have or buy with your money. Can you imagine such a concept?;) That means a person must acknowledge they will never fully “arrive,” they’ll always be flawed/incomplete, and they will have to work on their self to become more refined and connected… “The nerve..”. and quite “scary” to have to look in the mirror;)
Personally, what you say is totally REAL AND ATTAINABLE and is also being discussed here: http://beyondthefaceoffacebook.wordpress.com/
