This is a thing that's come up before. I intend to address it in my next post. I actually went back and edited my last post. It gave the impression that I was upset about what Bluebird had written. I'm not upset that Bluebird wrote what she did, I'm unhappy about the situation around it...

So, anytime that one of Bluebird’s updates contains the above, you can bet that I’m not happy about it. (Not happy about the situation only. I'm glad Bluebird can write about it) So, if you read Bluebird’s entry, you’ll know that my birthday didn’t go exactly as planned. A combination of...

In a couple of hours I'll be 40 years old. 40 years ago tonight, spent 6 hours fighting my way out of a vagina. The sad irony of my universe is that I've spent most of the hours since then trying to get back inside of one. Go figure. I never thought I'd turn 40 honestly. There were lots of...

I think this is probably the most important aspect of this, and one I've felt a bit myself. I'm definitely going to be more aware of that going forward. Thanks for being honest about it.

Thank you. :) Thanks for your concern and advice. One of the things I struggle with is that in the past I have dated some people who I didn't connect with much. Monkey always knew that she was more important to me than those people. (Don't feel bad for them, I was second in their lives at...

I'm sorry you feel that way Max. I too occasionally post in her Journal, although I generally try not to. I think both of us are going to be more cautious about that in the future, but I don't see it as a major issue, however, you're right, both of us don't want to blow up the other's journal...

Well fuck. This is exactly the kind of misunderstanding I was afraid of. Yeah, just to be clear, I don't think that Bluebird would have had a problem if I had said at the beginning "I'm doing X activity with Monkey or by myself or with my friends, or whatever.” As she stated, I think that the...

Well, I have to say, the results of the big family letter were surprising. It was...nothing at all. I got only one response from my entire family, now almost a week later. I got one email from my father that read only "We love you Warman." and nothing more. I have to admit, it's not at all...

Thanks. My first and foremost reason to write the letter is that I wanted to tell my kids, and didn't want them to ever have a situation where they A) felt they needed to protect Dad's secret or B) let slip something and then got interrogated about it. LOL my own best guess is that I will...

Hey folks, just wanted to pop in and comment on a few items I noticed that might have been misconstrued. What my actual concern was is that 1/3rd of her time might not be enough time to establish the kind of relationship we both want in the time we have left before some serious decisions will...

Absolutely true. Hard to hear, but you're absolutely right. I can't on one hand say how much I admire her intelligence and self-actualization, and on the other say she's made a mistake being with me can I? I'll try hard not to let that thought pattern establish itself again. Thanks for the...

<Sent the following to my family tonight, after running it by Bluebird and a couple of friends> Dear family, Hi, I wanted to share some good news with you. The picture attached is Bluebird. Bluebird and I have been dating for a few months and I really like her. I’ve dated a few other...

- Last time on "Unbinding the Briars" - When last we left our hero, he was headed off to distant lands to visit his heirs... So, I'm back from New Mexico. It was a really brief trip. Too brief, but I got a chance to spend some quality time with my kids, and I also got to spend some time...

Ha-ha! How long do you expect to live?!

, Aww! Thanks! I just write stream of thought, I'm glad it's pleasing. . Sadly, this is true. Growing up my examples for communication were all emotional, not calm or rational. I've had to fumble my way towards a better way. You hit the nail on the head, when I get emotional and lose my cool...

Bluebird is Saturated, but it seems like that's her preferred state of being. I do worry about it however. Bluebird has said to me that if we broke up she would not try for another primary partner. That makes me kind of sad, I feel a bit like a mistake. But, she says that I am unique and...

I'm always ready to hear suggestions. Thank you for these. I try to do something similar to this, but I think following it more closely would be beneficial. The real problem comes when I'm worked up already BEFORE we start talking. I need to work on that.

Hey everyone. These are great responses. Thank you all so much. I want to reply to some in depth, but right now I'm with my kids and need to focus on them. As soon as I can steal some time though I will definitely reply. Thank you all so much for the support.

So, I always assume that everyone who reads this is also reading Bluebird's journal. *I read some of the responses there to her last update. * Of course, my perspective on what happened is different from hers. I'm trying to think of how i can susinctly state what happened. Basically, i was...
