Our personas convince us that there is nothing that we don't know about ourselves -- that we are in fact the person we see in the mirror and believe ourselves to be. But the issue with this is that once we have bought into the story of 'this is who I am,' we shut the door on any other possibility and deny ourselves access to all of who we can be. We lose our ability to choose, because we can't do anything outside the confines of the character we're playing. The predictable persona we've constructed is now in control. We become blind to the immense possibilities for our life."

First Fight

So it finally happened. We had a fight, sort of. Really it was just him saying something dumb and me getting really mad and then him apologizing followed by long periods of silence punctuated by him saying sorry again and that he didn't mean it that way and that if he had really thought about it he wouldn't have said it.

What happened was I was telling him about my first time having sex and how basically it didn't actually take much time (in and out, literally). And then he asked "Were you dating him?" and normally I think I handle most stupid questions well but in this case I blew up and said "Of course I was dating him, who do you think I am? It was my first time, you think I just go out having random sex with strangers? Especially for my FIRST TIME?!" Hence me not talking to him for a while and him apologizing a lot and saying he never ever thought I was like that and it was a rhetorical question and really he knew the answer before he asked the question and so on and eventually I forgave him.

This counts as a fight right?...


On a side note: the flavour tripping supplies got held up at customs, even though they are ISO 9000 registered. So as soon as they arrive I plan something good!
