first song to pop into your head??

*yawns*
You should nap.
what is the best way to fake sickness?
Don't fake the raspy voice or any of that, everyone does that. One way is to make the call from your bathroom, claim to have eaten something that's made you sick and kept you up all night, and mid call, apologise fast and try to cover the microphone of the phone, and make throwing up noises while pouring something with a bit of mass, something lumpy but still quite fluid into the toilet, while making throwing up noises. Then apologize when you get back on the phone, spit into the toilet, whatever else you need to do to finish the performance.
"top is made of the river bottom is made of the string-".....can you complete that phrase?
No I can't, sorry.
favorite Winnie the Pooh character?
Probably Pooh himself. He didn't care if something was impossible, he'd try anyway, and when it failed, he'd just go "Oh well, let's try something else" and kept going.
goody goody gumdrops?
I suppose so, yes. To what do you refer?
why is the pie all gone?
Because it was tasty pie, and was eaten. Why waste pie?
for that matter where's the rum?
Probably went towards Smiles's Long island iced tea party.
is the hat edible?
That would depend entirely on how determined you are.
I like love....and i like people who can talk about that one special person that makes them happy and causes them to cry....(unfortunatly)
That's the risk you take though, isn't it? The person you let into your heart, who you give the ability to make you truly happy, also have the ability to easily hurt you, right down to your core, in ways and in places that don't heal easily, if at all.
No roses without needles....
More like railroad spikes in this case...
Anywho...If you would like to pm...that's okay too...
I will, because the full and honest answers to these questions are, while something I'm perfectly comfortable discussing in public, I shall decline to for reasons of good taste and Salubi's privacy.
And otherwise:
Prepare for incoming walls of text.
What made you fall in love with Salubi?
Salubi made me fall in love with Salubi. We started talking and I was immediately blown away by everything about her - the way she used her words, her willingness to express herself, her openness and honesty, he sense of humor, Sharp wit, her intelligence, her willingness to listen, her opinions, her entire personality, her wonderful mind.
I fell in love with her by accident - I'd started talking to her not looking for romance or anything else, but just someone to talk to, and she was on my timezone as I was living it. Had Bohemian been online and she hadn't, I probably would have ended up talking to him, instead, and I wouldn't be sitting here as I am. But I also wouldn't have experienced All I did with her, and I wouldn't be the person I am today. It was her courage, faith and belief in me, and love that gave me the drive to pursue my dream of being a flight attendant.
I fell absolutely, utterly in love with her before I'd ever seen a photo, or ever heard her voice. It wouldn't have mattered in the slightest what she turned out to look like, I wasn't and am not in love with her looks - I was in love with
her[/i]]her.
Do you have many friends back in Australia?
Yes, Many - Flight school mates, Scouting mates, Theatre mates, old school mates. I would say that my direct social network is a web of about 200 or so people, most of whom I keep in regular contact with, not including people I know through friends and so on.
How did you find out she cheated on you?
Well, I knew something was up before she actually cheated on me - Out of the blue, the woman who had spent the last year or two unafraid to voice her fears that I might find someone better than her out of the blue, just before she goes away to university, that she Wouldn't be hurt if I slept with someone else while she was away, giving me full permission to do so - which I thoroughly declined, and stuck to despite more than one chance to do otherwise.
There was something that occurred in the interim that occurred that I won't speak of here, at the point where she came back for a day or two - the only point during this whole 11 month story that she's acted like the Salubi I knew and loved, and coincidentally the only period of time she'd said "I love you" since I got here and sounded like she meant it - but then the final straw that made me confront her about it was later, when she'd come back from Uni while her school was on holidays, and I twigged to someone on her facebook referring to her as his "Mrs" and the way he was talking when he left some messages - also, she'd basically made no effort to contact me over the past few weeks(well, pretty much since she'd gone to university), and whenever I did manage to get in contact, she was evasive, and outright lied about things more than once.
I was stressed out, depressed, confused and hurt with what was going on(Both specifically between us and in general) and how she was treating me, and I snapped. I stopped being passive, and actively looked into it - however, I got off on the wrong foot, and did something I'm really not proud of - I obtained his password and broke into his(the london boy's) facebook, at which point I discovered that he'd changed his relationship status to "In a relationship" some weeks before, and there were quite a few salacious messages going back and fourth between them in his inbox, and the kicker - A pending relationship request to add Salubi as his girlfriend.
At that point, I confronted her about it, and she admitted to kissing him, but told me that she wasn't dating him, though he wanted to, and a few other things - as well as accusing me of hacking into her facebook. Close, but not quite - I knew her password, but I didn't touch her facebook, I thought about going into it, but I decided against it. She also broke up with me at this point.
Also, she blocked me on facebook(claiming she'd deleted it), and accepted his relationship request. She also went down to London at that point to be with him, telling me she'd gone to Aberystwyth to tell him that she didn't want to be with anyone right now(which I suspected was a lie, but I couldn't immediately confirm until point number 3) - However, Salubi is a terrible liar, and missed a few points that immediately told me what was going on.
1)Her friend supposedly lived in the university Halls at Aberystwyth. Why would she be there over holidays, and also, how could she be staying there during a period where everyone had been emptied out of halls to be shifted about?
2)Why would he be in Aberystwyth when holidays were on, and nobody was there?
3)I run a pretty good firewall on my computer, that keeps track of all incoming connections, identifies them, and logs them. When she lied to me about I knew she hadn't, as she contacted me Via MSN and was telling me the aforementioned lies via that medium. The only problem - For someone supposedly staying with a friend in Aberystwyth, the only incoming MSN connection I had at the exact time I was talking to her was coming not from Aberystwyth, but from London.
And that is how I found her out, though foolishly at points, I followed my heart instead of my head, and belived her when she said she wasn't with anyone, instead of following my head, which was screaming "SHE'S LYING AND YOU KNOW IT FOR FUCKS SAKE, WHY ARE YOU BELIEVING THIS SHIT?"
Would you want her back if she would apologize for all the stuff and told you she wanted to send the rest of her life with you?
To be honest? Propably not. I still love her as much as I ever did, but I trust her about as much as I trust a hunger-crazed fox in a Henhouse full of chooks not to eat said chooks. I gave her a chance at Easter to tell me the truth, without consequences, offering that we go on as friends, and after subtly stating that I already knew the truth, she sat there, looked me in the eye, and lied through her teeth. I will admit, I did play up a bit, and exaggerated my emotions somewhat(once it became clear that fifteen minutes had gone by without a word of truth coming out of her mouth) to see what it would take to get a reaction out of her, and the only time she reacted to anything I said, at all - Was when I noted that she had lied, or suggested that she'd done something wrong, at which point she went into a fit of rage and was cursing me while threatening to leave and never talk to me again.
On top of this, consider that to even get her first to talk to me and then to agree to come meet me in the first place, I'd had to beg her forgiveness to the point of humiliating myself, and do you know what for?
I committed a horrible crime. Admittedly, I slipped up and accidentally mentioned something about Facebook, and she said that she'd deleted her Facebook, and I pointed out that this was a lie, and how I knew this. That's right - I had to Beg forgiveness for pointing out that she'd lied to me, to her face, and in a manner that was in no way impolite or offensive.
In time, I might come to trust her again, and maybe then I'd consider it, but right now, after the way she's treated me, I'm not even comfortable with her touching me, let alone being in a relationship with her. She Drove me into a breakdown, and nearly utterly destroyed me - I'm not proud to say, but I'll be honest about it - she fucked me over so badly and hurt me so much that I actively considered suicide multiple times, sitting there on my bed with a bottle of pills in my hand - The only reason I didn't was because I was reminded of my Cousin, who killed himself over a woman, and how that both effected everyone, and didn't help anything. I flushed the pills down the toilet later in the night of the third or fourth time it occurred, and pretty much battered myself for being so stupid, before resorting the following night, I am not proud to admit, to my old method of sorting myself out when my depression got that bad - Going out, Getting really drunk, and picking a fight with the biggest guy I could find.
Do you secretly hope for this to happen?
Despite the above answer - Yes. There is an enormous Salubi shaped hole in my life and in my being - my world, life, thoughts and heart were entirely centered on this woman for the better part of four years.
Also, as I've mentioned elsewhere on the site, Salubi has undergone a curious, disturbingly rapid personality shift of Phineas Gage proportions, not only once, but shifting before I got here, shifting back when she acted normally for a few days, and then shifting again when she got back to uni after that - Tigers don't change their stripes without help, let alone change them, change back, and then change them again.
Also, a weird thing at the time she acted normal - when she greeted me on the day she saw me at that time, it was like it was the first time she'd seen me in a long time - pretty much exactly as I'd expected she'd greet me when I arrived in this country a month after she left Australia - unlike when I actually arrived, when she was all but emotionless. Sure, she smiled, and hugged, but the hug was like she was unwilling to do so, and the smile never reached her eyes.
What did you do for a living back in Australia?
I was in hospitality from the age of sixteen, and I've done a number of jobs, but just before I left Australia, I'd been a flight attendant, and I'd worked in a petrol station - However, I did turn down a massive offer from a new airline in Australia to be both a flight attendant and a "Face" as I would have been one of the first Flight attendants on the airline - just so I could come over here, to be with Salubi.
