I wanted to share a realization from today. I’ve reclaimed just a little more. I made this as a reminder of how far I’ve come.

I don’t need... but I want.

I caught my smile in the mirror today. It was brighter than that annoying light in my bathroom. I wished for a moment that you could have seen it.

Remember how I use to tell you “I don’t need you, but I want you.” and it hurt you a little, somewhere deep it stirred… and then you said, “But I need you.” And I believed it. Perhaps that was something we couldn’t heal from.

I tried to explain it once – The want over the need.

“It’s not that I don’t -need- you, it’s that I don’t NEED anyone. I’m whole all on my own. I finally reached a place where -I- am enough for me. And that’s profound. I don’t NEED you… but the whole of me… wants you.”

To me… that is so much more – wanting over needing. Because there is no missing part of me that feels a need for something to fill it. Instead, you get all of me. 

Me fully.

And it’s just more to give.

And when things sent us in opposite directions. I still wanted you. I still want you now.

But that smile in the mirror today, it held meaning. It was a visual perception of my fullness still here with me today. It was here before you… with you… and now, after you.

I’m happy and now my want, is for you to be happy.

 I want you to catch your perfect blinding smile in the mirror. I hope that today you can see you as I have. Fully. Beautifully.

-Lolita

I don’t have commitment-issues. I have issues with being a slave to preconceptions and expectations that are made for me without conscious choices.

Polyamory, basically :)

Not all relationships are definable in the usual way, that’s for sure. We wind up getting ourselves into very tight boxes due to the fact that everyone has these super-strict ideas about WHAT things are. What a “marriage” means. What a “long-term” relationship means. What an “open” relationship means. It’s really all just names and words. The key is to come to an understanding with yourself and your lovers/partners/friends. And everyone else can judge all they want, but the thing you construct is not up to them to name.

I’m totally a poly sloth, how about you? 

Well, you should make and submit a nonmonogameme representin’ yourself. Call it your non monogamy spirit animal.
