I managed to get a solid three hours sleep before baby girl woke me to eat. However, the sleep felt shallow and not very restful. I hope this next stretch of sleep is better.

In other news, my junk closet is a nightmare and I finally need to organize it before it explodes on me one day. Note: I enter this closet about a dozen times daily so exploding is a really possibility. The same goes for my junk cupboard in the kitchen.

I love the cat couch picture.

And I really like my T. He provides an appropriate level of intimacy, and he doesn't buy into my bullsh*t. And he doesn't hate me, despite all my bullsh*t.

(Asterisking because the boards censor the whole word otherwise.)
Thanks for this!

And that was my point. Relationship is it's own thing. Intimacy can be a description of something one MAY find in a relationship but is not necessary for the existence of a relationship.

Absolutely - I agree, and you're putting it much better than I did.

True, but another person may define "relationship" in such a way that for that person, a relationship cannot exist without intimacy. For that person, all interactions with people without intimacy might be defined as "acquaintanceships" or something else. I think perhaps an attack was being seen where there was not one intended.
Thanks for this!

(((((Mast!!))))) I don't know words and I don't know good relationships, either firsthand or secondhand from witnessing family and friends.

Just saying I wish this did not hurt you. That it did not seem like an attack or as if you were being accused of lying. That's all.

Its so weird. Its like i am finally starting to remember the events of the past seven years. To see them as memories. Like they hadnt been registered yet. Some of them had, but not many.

Some people are just addicted to drama.

Oh, boy, I just wanted to let you know I feel your pain. You wrote something a while back I wanted to respond to about being up at night, having already not slept because of anxiety... I definitely went through the same thing during a rough patch early on (my baby is now 7.5 months), where I'd be up awake as part of a depressive episode, then the baby would wake up, and it would just feel like time was my enemy. I felt like Jasmine in that scene from Disney's Aladdin where she's trapped in an hourglass and drowning in sand. Anyway I didn't respond then because I'm overwhelmed between work and baby and oh yeah, mental health maybe?

I still don't sleep for long stretches at night, and I definitely feel like my mind is slowly giving way. Hang in there!

Yes, that is very unpleasant. I edit Wikipedia a lot, and there is a lot of drama about very minor and unimportant things there. I avoid it.

Thank you, I appreciate that. I know I wasn't attacked but I can get disproportionally upset when I'm misunderstood. I have an inferiority complex the size of my behind (which is very large indeed) when it comes to communicating in English.

For whatever it's worth, even when I find myself disagreeing with you, I don't think it's *ever* because of your ability to communicate in English, more just that we happen to come from very different places on certain topics.

Your English is fantastic. Really. I am NOT saying that to make you feel better. To be annoying for a moment, I'm told I have excellent language skills in my native tongue, so I feel quite qualified to tell you that your English is REALLY good. If you hadn't already said you were from Sweden, you could completely troll us as a native English speaker.
