This Is My Life 7/21/03
Some of you know by now to keep my telephone number in your book in pencil because it�s likely to change soon. Well, it�s just about the same with this relationship.
I wrote yesterday and said we were committed to making it work. Maybe I shouldn�t say anything like that again. Yesterday evening Antoinette broke up with me again.
Why, you ask? Because a woman friend took me out to lunch for my birthday. Antoinette felt jealous and so broke up with me. I'm not going to tell the whole story because I don�t want to get into right/wrong about it. Suffice it to say that we perceived what happened very differently. It�s clear that she doesn�t trust me, no matter how honest and open I�ve been with her and despite my agreement with her to not get romantically or sexually involved with anyone else. Without trust we have no real relationship and no real love. And having to give up my friends is too high a price to pay for me to be in any romantic relationship.
So, I guess I'm available again. I'm very sad and disappointed. I wanted this to be the one that would last forever and be my last romantic relationship.
As the Rolling Stones sang, �You can�t always get what you want, but, if you try sometime, you just might find, you get what you need.� I guess losing Antoinette is what I need; it certainly wasn�t what I wanted.
Warmly,
Michael

This Is My Life 7/20/03
I�ve been really busy developing my relationship with Antoinette, so I haven�t had much time for writing (except to her).
Very briefly, we�re together (in spirit, anyway), and we�re developing a committed relationship. She�ll be moving here from Maui (by way of a visit to her mother in Michigan) in late September. It�s a challenge to be separated, and we both have relationship issues to work out, but we�re both determined to make this work.
Stay tuned.
Today is my birthday. If you remembered and I heard from you, thank you. I was surprised about some of the people who did remember.
Warmly,
Michael
