It’s been 3 years but there are still two things that I can’t buy or eat without thinking of the-ex - sweet corn and pistachios. They were his most favourite.

I hesitate just a second, every single time, before picking up packets of sweet corn in the supermarkets - they are good here in Australia. And for the first time in three years, I finally bought pistachios over the weekend.

Relationships… how they affect you long after they have ended…

From my vantage point at the moment, I can understand why some people choose not to fall in love again after the end of a significant relationship - you just don’t want to risk another break up. It can truly break you. Staying single is a defence mechanism - it salvages and preserves what’s left of you.

I’ve been very quiet on this blog lately. There really hasn’t been much that I have wanted to say. Or at least nothing that I could articulate in a clear manner.

I’ve been dating someone for the last five months. It’s been going well but I don’t think it’s going to go where I would like it to go. I think I need to put up defences before I become broken… again.
