Hi Trust and HT.
For now, I am very happy being able to write about music and the arts again. As well as doing photography.
Like I said, I would not mind a new relationship. It would have to be a very special one. I like HT relationship, each in their house. That suits me. Can't see myself having to share a bedroom with someone on a daily basis. A house? Maybe, if I have my own bedroom/space. Still, one never knows.
These long time MLCers really still are where the buses don't run.
Trust, interesting the idea of living the consequences of crisis during crisis. Somehow I don't think that is what is going on with Mr J. But, who knows what is going on with him.
Mr J crisis started either late Spring or early Summer 2005 when his peternal grandmother died. At first he seemed normal. Even when he started DJ I didn't saw anything wrong with it. I even incentivate him. He likes music, he was a bit down. Maybe djing his favourite music (his real self favourite music) in a nice, classy bar or two would help.
Of course it didn't and what was going to be an ocassional thing become a lunacy. Then come 2006. Early 2006 Mr J and I had decided to adjust our life to have kids, etc. I still have those e-mails. He wasn't happy with the djing and wanted a calmer life. I agree.
Come March, or April 2006 and he was saying he was depressed and the strange things begin. Like wanting to go to Cleveland or Pittsburgh sorting some guy's gigantic records warehouse for a year. I asked what about me, us, our life plans. Reply, he couldn't care less about me.
It was quite odd, but since he had said he was depressed, I thought it was the depression talking. It was. Just another type of depression I was not familiar with. Some normal time followed. May 2006 we asked for a small bank loan for a new flat or refurbishing ours further. Most likely the first. Never happened.
Mr J become involved with OW1, the crisis monster and confusion showed more and more. Summer 2006 was bizarre. He was buying me lots of great vintage clothes - I still wear them, shoes, etc. At the same time, he was erratic, not sure about us, then totally sure about us and wanting again a calmer life and kids.
Come October 2006, he left. And has been gone since. In the meanwhile he managed to be all sorts of nasty. The most surprising thing for me is that it hasn't been any real nasty thing since October 2014. Four years and a few months without crazy nasty Mr J. Amazing.
Other than that, very little changes. MLC life still going on. OW2 really seems gone.
