I will contest the commitmentphobia theory though.       I remain on good and speaking terms with the two exes in my longest term       relationships, both the ex-wife and ex-fiance. There have been some       girlfriends in the short term        afterwards and these relationships ended amicably also because they were never       meant to be long term.       >        > I will not air my exes or my dirty laundry publicly. It's not particularly       scandalous and quite banal. Suffice to say in the marriage I got into it too       young and therefore too immature. At the end of that relationship is when I       first encountered you on        Facebook. The next long term relationship was where I really grew and matured       but where I was also severely tested: having a partner with severe trauma and       illness is a challenge. That in itself was not the reason it didn't last but       it was the backdrop        for a host of mistakes, many mine, some hers.        >        > I am not the demon you think I am. I also know, despite sometimes being very       angry at you and sometimes channeling that anger into humor, you are not a       demon either Nima. I have seen aspects of you albeit through a digital filter       that are good. I don't        really disagree with your politics and I also don't disagree with your       position on psychedelics when used sacramentally. I don't quite understand       your ire to your religion of origin at this time but I do find your interest       in the Babi Azali tradition        interesting.              The religion of my origins is the Bayan/Twelver Shi'ism since bahaism is not a       religion at all but pure idolatry merely masquerading as one. Bahaism to me is       as the idol worship among the Arabs of the jahiliya in Hejaz in the period of       the commencement        of the Revelation of the Furqan to Muhammad (pbuh), the Messenger of God.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
