I’m considering reconciling with my ex-boyfriend. Ish.

The short story is, I had a boyfriend in high school and we ended up going to college together. The slightly elaborated story is, I had this boyfriend who took me to the towering heights of love and then threw me into the adjacent chasm of love; my body (heart, mind, soul, whatever) has only really mended recently. So what would make me want to go back into the garbage it took me three years to swim out of? To be honest, because he’s here, he gets me (somewhat; there are basic Yvonne precepts that he’s got nailed down, even now) and we had a great sexual relationship. I’m at a point where I could substitute doing the same act with lots of people for doing lots of acts with the same person. And … maybe it would nice, for a little while, to be in a relationship. Of course, I’m in one now, but its this separate lives thing we’re running right now --- a junior relationship, if you will --- that makes me think I’m ready to upgrade.

Or maybe I should just decapitate the next person who comes to me with marriage talk.
