Belated New Year

I once said that I would try to blog more.  So much for that.

But it has been a while since I updated, so let me give you the rundown...

1. I lost my job the weekend of Another Anime Convention.
2. My girlfriend dumped me a week before Valentine's Day.
3. I am back in college.

First topic: I took a sick day and emailed that I wasn't going to be there. I get a call from the agency about my whereabouts. I send another e-mail, forget to send a copy to the agency.  Around 4:30 that afternoon, they drop the ball on me.  So fuck MDRC.  I knew you guys were going to ax me when the contacts list was updated with the new temp, with him having an official title and me as still a temp.  Fuck you guys.

Second topic: That will be for a separate blog post because there's a lot to talk about.  I will say this, I feel guilty as a manwhore for dating other women and not telling them of my status.  I had legit reason, but it still doesn't feel right.

Third topic: After being fired and doing another temp job, my unemployment is enough for me to live off of comfortably for a while.  So I figured that instead of job hunting, let me go back to school and finish up and get my degree, that way my job hunting will go a lot better.

That's it for now, peace!

Relationships

Relationship. I have one. I'm lucky.

Why do I say that?  We trust and love each other very much.  And we both have a Hall Pass / Free Pass, because we're so far away from each other.

We have an open/polyamorous relationship.  This was her idea, not mine.  I also didn't have a problem with it either.  But I've gotten flack from it and I don't think it's fair at all.

I truly feel that it's a double standard for an open relationship.  If a woman is in one, most guys do not have a problem with it.  Prolly because most guys think with their penis (you know I'm right).  If a guy is in one, most women will have a problem with it.  I find that women feel that you're cheating, and will not do that.

I for one, have never convinced a woman to be poly.  I've come across those who are confused by it wanting to learn more, so I explain what it is.

What bothers me is that if I like you, I would like to take you out and not have a female looking down on me because I have a girlfriend who allows me to do this.  I have lost a few female friends over this, and it has bothered me.  It's gotten to the point where I've hidden my relationship status, and I will tell that women when the time is right.

I do understand that some women do not like to share, and that's okay. But if a guy wants to take you out to dinner and he's seeing someone, don't hold that against him.  His girlfriend knows he's doing this.  Granted there are guys that will do this and not tell their girl about it.  That's completely unfair.

I do know a girl who gave up on being poly for the sake of her relationship.  I did not agree with that because she sacrificed something for him.  If you like a girl and she wants to be poly, RESPECT THAT.  She will 100% respects you back and as long as you trust her, there is nothing to worry about.

Overall what I'm saying is this... Monogamy isn't for everyone and if you meet that person who prefers being poly, respect that person's decision and roll with it... You may just like it.
