Relationships are funny things. Not like "Funny, Ha ha", but more "Funny, funny". I s'pose odd is the word I'm looking for. When they're in process, I'm not sure anyone really knows what it is that keeps them involved, beyond the inexplicable desire to desire. When it's over, what exactly is it that you miss? I suspect it's one of two things. Either the lack of human companionship, or more than likely, the lack of regular and abundant sex. Half of the list would probably say they would miss the companionship, when obviously they're just not getting any, and the other half would say they're missing the sex because they've got reputations to uphold. Of course then there's the other half who are emotional reptiles, suffering acute nymphomania, and there predicament is too sad to even contemplate. The worst part of the whole kettle of koi (apart from the prospect that anyone might still be reading this) is that it's the severance of said contacts that causes gentle people like myself to utter complete bollocks to a large number of people, all of whom are ready to pounce on the delete key like a cat on petrified little defenceless mouse. I had grand plans for inspiring a mixture of sympathy and happiness with this post. But I think I've failed on both counts. Judging by my luck at the moment this post will probably implode when I hit the send button. Either that or it will elope with my mail program. Sorry to take up your precious time/space. Breams ps. I'm sick too, and I'm sure that mucous is a hallucinogen. So just put this all down to me being under the influence of illicit bodily fluids. +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
