Since the Sun moved into Aquarius, Mr. Aqua has suddenly started becoming keen on computers. People have been telling him for ages he ought to do something in that line of work, he has that type of brain, and quite a lot of patience. Now he's actually got something useful to do, a goal, his attitude towards me, and life, has improved immensely.
We were chatting together yesterday. Actually, I find I can discuss issues very well with him, he is very quick, has amazing wit, and when he comes out with a particularly good one-liner, I think: "that's why I love you". If we can manage to get through a conversation without throwing insults at each other, it's good. It doesn't often happen that way, but - ahem - that's par for the course, I guess. He did say to me that he hoped we could always be good friends. If I was parted from him, I think that is what I would miss, the friendship.
I asked him why he originally took to me, and he said it was because he thought I had "potential" and that my parents were rather suppressing it, and he wanted to give me the sort of environment, the opportunity, to grow and express myself, although the outcome wasn't what he had expected, it was good that I was at last being myself. I was really touched by this and said so. He shrugged his shoulders and said it was the least he could do.
I think he really cares quite deeply for me. What do you think?AriesTiger IP: Logged |

Gosh, when you are married to someone, in such close quarters, you develop such an intensely personal relationship and the thought of losing that aspect of it, no matter how they might be incompatible in a million other ways, it really is quite sad.
It is an opening, learning experience, and the friendship is ultimately what makes it endure.
I spent the evening dancing around the kitchen and smooching and rubbing up against my man, and just generally playing, relishing each other's company. Goofy, sexy, dear.
I would miss that closeness.
I get you.IP: Logged |

 Heh..not that I know ANYTHING about monogamous relationships....but ariestiger, sounds like you've got a good thing going. I remember your earlier posts about Mr.Aqua-- this is another side of the relationship that you haven't written about. And his answer to why he took to you- very touching indeed. And unconventional! (naturally..) pixie...if I EVER get married..I sure hope I can always be goofy and sexy with my man...you almost make me believe it's possible to enjoy marriage! IP: Logged |

We banter a lot, he keeps me mentally stimulated. Both of us play to the gallery, especially in company, neither of us can resist trying to make people laugh, or be entertaining. This (I don't know whether fortunately or unfortunately) leads to many people seeing us as a sort of "double act" and I get rather embarrassed about it sometimes, because I hate the thought that people might see us as a couple of fools!! I do wish our relationship was a bit more mature, but it was formed at a time when, quite frankly, neither of us was very mature.My husband went to see his mother a couple of days ago, and had also been asked to babysit for some customers' children in the evening (an unbelievably precocious Capricorn and an exuberant Aries). Unfortunately I think my husband completely lost control!!! He had tried to demonstrate to them that if you place an egg on a table pointed end downwards and press on it with your palm, it can't be broken. The theory didn't actually work, much to the children's delight, and immediately they started cracking eggs all over the kitchen. It turned into absolute mayhem, he ended up begging them to go to bed and they just sat there and laughed.
"Ooh, bad move, with the eggs," I said when he told me about it later. "You've simply GOT to show them who's boss. I hope you've learned your lesson."
"I really think I lost control completely tonight," he said, guiltily."Oh! And another thing -"
It transpired that, because he had served food/wine at one of the wife's dinner-parties, she had entered his services as a prize in a raffle under the title "Win a Free Butler For An Evening". He had found out about it through conversing with the husband, she hadn't actually mentioned it to him. Aq: So I am now a prize in a raffle! How much lower can you go? All in all, I feel as if this evening's been well - interesting, and slightly surreal. Do you ever feel as though you've been **** on from a great height?
Ar: Yeah, but you set yourself up to be. You've got to say no more often. Be more aggressive.
Aq: (helplessly)How am I supposed to do that?
Ar: (says nothing, ponders on words *how am I supposed to do that*) Pause. Ar: How are you getting paid for this?
Aq: (penny drops, as does jaw) Oh - my God! I've only just realized! Not only have I been entered into a raffle without my consent, but I'm not going to get paid for it either!
Ar: I think you'd better get on the case and get it sorted out quickly, so that at least you do get paid. And maybe you need to take a really good look at how customers see you, so that they don't walk all over you like this.
Aq: You're not very sympathetic.
Ar: (grins)Well, I am, but there are limits, and there comes a time when people really have to start helping themselves. I suppose you got plenty of sympathy at your mother's?
Aq: (makes a face) It was very PEACEFUL. She's a good companion.
Ar: Peaceful, because whatever you did, she wouldn't make you feel one mite uncomfortable!
Aq: Ah, hold your noise, woman! You old baggage! (Laughter)
