perspective
May. 28th, 2006 04:15 pmStrange thing for me to be watching DS9 now, as I'm in the depths of trying to get over Patrick.
See, Chris was a big DS9 fan... I suppose way back when watching this would have been weird for me because I wasn't yet "over" him. Of course, my situation with him was of a whole different nature, but it required similar emotional processes afterwards to the ones I'm dealing with now. In fact, even though I never really resolved everything I wished to have resolved, it took me until well into my relationship with Patrick to truly move on.
And so watching these episodes of DS9 I am brought a bit of perspective... I really will be over Patrick one day, even if it takes a long time. And in fact, I'll be more over him than I'm presently over Chris because I'll have that closure I need. And I really think closure is the most important thing.
And no, if you have no idea what I'm talking about, I'm not going to explain them here. If you really want to know, gimme a call or something. It's a long story that happened a long time ago.
[EDIT: And yet, I still avoid him like the plague whenever I do run in to him or there's a chance that I might... That just amuses me. ^_^;]
