    Having you forcibly pulled from The Zone by some colleague knocking at your office door to make sure you received their email is obviously painful, but this makes me realize that being forcibly pulled from The Zone in ANY way whatsoever is equally painful.

    Wheeeeee painful loneliness depression spiral.

    Anxiety and trust issues keep me from even thinking about starting a relationship but it still fuckin hurts.

        Sure, we are happy to! We have had our fair share of similar situations. But we learned and now we are much better off in relationships with people who love us for us and not for what we can provide them with.

    I used to know a couple who gradually grew apart. It got to the point where she was laying on the floor naked, and he’d still rather pay attention to his video game. She is smart, funny, and hot as hell.

    She’s happily married now. I wonder if he’s happy, or regrets letting her get away.
