Old flames never die they just fade away… Volumes are spoken in those few words; the anatomy of an unfulfilled love with the unanswered questions of what could have been, haunting you somewhere in the back of your mind. It seems like certain people have a destiny to come in and out of our lives, an old flame always leaving the biggest impression.
I’ve always said ex’s are ex’s for a reason. Yet as we remember the heartbreak, we also replay the good times over and over again in our heads. Can you ever realistically go back and start again…a different type of relationship with the ex, or is it far too easy to fall back into old patterns and repeat the same mistakes of the past?
While many of us make the effort to change for the better and begin reaching out to new opportunities. They are those, who are safe in their own little world, never changing or desiring what is out of their comfort zone. I believe there is the possibility of re-visiting the past. But you have to have learned the tough lesson of why the romance failed in the first place. It takes courage to walk out on that limb and take the chance for ”one more time”. It also has to be the desire of both parties willing to take the first steps in exploring a new chance at love.
Beth Asked:
Some have it and some do not…Gaydar…the ability to sense what another’s sexual preference might be. Haven’t you ever heard someone say, “I have great gaydar! I can tell that person is gay because of this reason…” I would have to admit that my gaydar must be broken! The only way I detect someone is gay, is if they admit it. Or if they are overly masculine women or very effeminate men. But this rule does not always apply and is not a great way to distinguish someone’s sexuality.
In search of Cinderella held captive in those very words is just one version of a story about the “happily ever after.” You never know when the magical hour is going to strike or if like the fairytale, the illusion is destined to last but for a few hours or a lifetime. Though your vision of Cinderella and mine might be totally different, the basic essence remains the same. Over the course of our brief lives, we will feel it, hold it, breathe it, crave it, etc… Do you know what it is?… Love…Passion…Desire…These are the things that have sustained die hard romantics for years nay for thousands of years! So with each waking day I find myself…” In Search Of Cinderella!”
