But my dear sweet little Justino is still there, treading the path to his future. His particular learning curve has only just begun to curve upwards. He has no choice but to follow his nose to wherever it may lead. I hope he's got a good supply of Bandaids in his backpack.<br /><br />As to Stew's comment: it's better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all... I wonder who said that.<br /><br />But I'm inclined to agree. Perhaps the same can be said for all experiences. What the hell would any of us be if it were not for experiences... both good and bad? How else could we possibly learn anything?<br /><br />Justino also said something about sharing. Yes, most important. In fact, that's what it's all about, I reckon. And come to think of it, that's what Justino's blog is all about.Gary Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17947146717481835071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4517388058225414110.post-85600865589763483152010-02-07T14:41:22.362-05:002010-02-07T14:41:22.362-05:00Oh, how does that saying go?

"It's better to have loved and have lost than to never have loved at all"<br /><br />And as a previous articled stated, it taks constant communication for two people to know what's going on in the others life.<br /><br />Is my relationship everything that I ever dreamed of? NO<br />But. I wouldn't change it for nuttin'. If it all ended tomarrow, I'd be happy for what I had.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02964941329127641280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4517388058225414110.post-30716820557438322382010-02-07T10:39:41.553-05:002010-02-07T10:39:41.553-05:00THANKS, J & GARY for your sagacious comments. ...THANKS, J & GARY for your sagacious comments. ..

Has been very noice. . ;-) We read and talked about this article ourselves. . .it was a good step off place to talk about important items in our lives, in our relationship.<br /><br />We two "art-works in progress" have so many planned and more unplanned growing/changes in our lives. . .who can know with surety just where all of this will lead? . but we do know that we work at living in "the Now". . it's all we've got. . .and that way we try not to miss out on the goodness we have and share.<br /><br />While one could talk things to death" and keep a relationship always in theory and never get to living it and enjoying it. . .doncha think?<br /><br />justinJustinO'Sheahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07379283329949646000noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4517388058225414110.post-82693586785478329622010-02-06T16:40:16.400-05:002010-02-06T16:40:16.400-05:00Oops!

It's not the split that hurts so much as the disappointment you experience at having your dreams and expectations dashed.<br />Go figure.<br />Meanwhile, I congratulate Justin for advising Shazza that what he was missing was not the company of his ex, but the support.<br />Take care, my vulnerable little lovelies.Gary Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17947146717481835071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4517388058225414110.post-10318505167177826062010-02-06T16:03:08.272-05:002010-02-06T16:03:08.272-05:00Sustaining long term relationships among gay males...Sustaining long term relationships among gay males is always going to be difficult, because they're guys, and I believe women are genetically designed to be more practical in evaluating themselves and the suitability of their relationships. Psychologists (like you, Justin) tell us women are phychologically more invested in the preservation of their relationships with men, and their families. And isn't the old saying true, that a standing prick has no conscience? The advice you offer here is good.Jnoreply@blogger.com
