Breaking up

When a friend breaks up with her long term older (very much older) boyfriend and a bunch of you take her out the same night to talk and take her mind off things....it's a long time coming but you hope this time she will stick to it.

It's troubling how people are stuck in their relationships. There are good times but the inevitable will happen...they won't be together forever but they still stay together...

That's the thing I find disturbing in a relationship. The emotions and physical intimacy that is difficult to let go of. ARgh.... Although it might seem enjoyable, "love", and you might learn from it, it doesn't make it right.

I don't understand. I wish that things didn't have to be this way. But they always will be...

You'll always see this more evidently in non-Christian relationships. And sadly between Christians too.

Sometimes I wonder if it's easier with having a Christian mentality when it comes to relationships but within a context of a relationship between two non-Christians. The pool is certainly larger...not sure about the quality but quantity it sure is.

It's like a sticky label losing its stickiness the more it's peeled and put on to different surfaces. Emotional hurt like dirt and dust latches on to the sticky surface and takes greater effort to stick to things- my two cents comment on the analogy of the pursuit of quantity in relationships... also some surfaces are harder to peel than others...

Yeah agreed to the "some surfaces are harder to peel than others..." especially in the very case of this post.
