A bit of an update; I have been lurking for a good time, and I may even dare to say that I could be returning to the board. I will not have the time to commit to a return to the PbP threads.

What has been the up?

My rage issues have been professionally investigated now, I am taking 20mg of prozac a day. It does not make me feel too out there and not like myself, but it feels like it gives me the edge I need to not lose control of my temper. As a result my daughter and I are getting along a lot better.

I think I mentioned that I thought I was getting broken up with... well there is no more thinking needed, my SO and I officially "broke up" on 10/31/2011.

We are currently still living in the same home, playing family. We have a friend staying with us and looking for work, as well as a family member.

We are living together because right now... a- she cannot afford to not live with me and b- if she leaves I have almost nothing to survive with, no kitchen table, no dishes, no pots and pans, no silverware, no couches or dressers, no bed. I would; however, have a lot of the superfluous **** like my gaming books, a TV, X-Box, etc. So I am working at getting the **** I need, and she is working on getting a second job.

I am about to be rude and chauvinistic inside this spoiler, so if you do not want to see such things keep the **** out, otherwise do not ***** about my spoilered angst.
Spoiler:
***what I am going to say may be construed as offensive/rude or otherwise inappropriate for some sensibilities. That is just how it is, sorry.***

Honestly, I do not care, if she gives up the ***... cool, and if she decides that she is going to use me for my money and not provide ***... she can get the **** out.

It is not that I do not love her, or even that I do not want reconciliation, I just do not care anymore. Reconciliation is not in the cards, and that is by her choice. But she needs me more than I need her. I need her because I want her, she wants me because she needs me.


I am unsure of how things are going to progress, but I am feeling too mellow to let it bring me down.

I plan to resume posting here, but I will need to see if I really feel the love of being "back" or not; it may be easier to just hold a low opinion of humanity from in the middle of humanity and not the middle of a messageboard. :)

Huh. Thanks for the update, hope the meds and living arrangements work out for you. Especially hope the daughter-thing works out.

Well, I can suggest to you that not caring is ok, for a little while. But it's not a great long term solution. Work on getting her out, work on getting yourself free.

Do what you have to do DS, hope to see you back here again sometime when it gets better.

Dude, I've been there. It sucks. I'm glad you worked it out (or taken steps) before it came to a head.

Hey DS,

Still have your quote in my sig, because you are still cool even in bad times. Will be thinking of you and hoping all works out for your benefit. Remember, I got yo back my tigga. ;)

Sounds like you're in a lot better place now than when you left, bro. Here's to hoping for your full return!
