"Milk and Cereal" mornings.... I liked it.... It had a comfortable sound to it.... Sort of like a leather chair that's worn and soft from use.... but deep and cuddly to curl up in..... Actually milk and cereal can be very yummy and refreshing........ and I feel a comfortable love in your words.... THANKS...  ~Harem~

"Perfection" - WONDERFUL, what a very creative way you have expressed the truth ! ! !<BR>
Two negatives make a positive.<BR>
How true... Very romantic idea.<BR>

Harem - thank you so much. warm and snuggly is exactly what i was trying to do. i adore "Fisher-Price Love." It reminds me of that commercial "it's a great time for being a kid. it's a great time for fisher price." adore it.<BR>
<BR>
jill - i enjoyed your two subs that i can't remember what they're called (i know i know...shame on me). I don't get a chance to be on the site nearly enough, and it was fun to read something new from someone i'm not so familiar with. keep writing!

" ??? "  Written with deep feelings.... I have been the younger woman, and the older woman.... So I see it from both ends.  When I was 26, I married a man who was 62... I left him, not because of the age difference, but because he was abusing me and my children.... Last year, I was dating someone twenty years younger than me.... He had no idea how old I was, and I was afraid that if I told him, he would stop seeing me... We broke up, because he wanted a committment, and wanted to live with me.... I was crazy about him, and he was crazy about me... But I thought it was unfair of me, to love him, because of our age difference... Also, I was insecure, and did not have enough confidence in myself.... He was so good looking, and women of all ages were after him.... So I bided for more time, and he got angry and disappeared.... I still get sick to my stomach when I think of him.... as it hurts so much... even now more than a year later.....  Reading this story that you wrote... brought the pain all back in my mind.... I never realized that a younger man, could love an older woman like that..... I am quite choked up.... I wonder what might have been, if I had handled it differently... I feel almost sick thinking about it... You expressed yourself so beautifully..... I am sorry for the pain you endured through the rejection, and for the hurt you got from your Dad and the man that abused you..... It gave me tears........... I truly am sorry ! ! !  But thank you so much for sharing !   ~Harem~<BR>

Harem~ Thanks! Actually, 'Promise' was a dream I had last night...I tried to put it down in words, what I remembered from it...And I read 'Tear Ducts'...Why is it that they say men aren't supposed to cry? I never did understand that...I think now that it's just something society blindly thinks...I wonder where that came from, though...Crying isn't bad...Although, it does make my eyes all puffy!! And I have laughed until I cried!!!  That's the best kind of laughter...=) love and laughter, Ali

Thank you slug,I will post alot often.You all seem like a really good bunch.When I wrote it,it was a description of how my guy came to me,he loved it too.<BR>
<BR>
Harem I thought BLOOD BATH OF TWO HEARTS was just amazing and I know exactly what you meant.I've had my share of painful tears but its not so bad if you've got someone to cry with.I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks a few ot a ton of tears are ok.
