someone was unkind to me many years ago, someone I cherished and promised my heart to in that young adoring and innocent way.

this person may as well have come from the dark side of the moon...but I could not see that. I simply lost all sense of self or something like that.

sure it might sound dramatic.....but some people have an ability to poison another persons soul...and when you don't expect it?

this type of thing can affect a person for a very long time and percolate through everything in their lives.

just a very unfortunate emotional collision.
I recently had a breakthrough about this when I confronted this person not so long ago....and my borderline reaction was epic. Being older now and realising this person is still a threat to me. I have a long 'ways' to go.

it's just a matter of re-constructing.

In a relationship...the most painful hurt, I believe, is inflicted by some-one
who does not or simply cannot recognise they are inflicting it.
there is no link..no resolution no compassion...no peace.
