In particular, where I was once working just working from last night to Monday night, just turned into me getting out of my first night shift of seven in a row. This is going to suck.

And one of those seven 12-hour shifts in a row just turned into a 16.
.... Well, this is an improvement to my temperament tonight. I feel tired, but at least not angry. .... Maybe I am too tired to bother feeling annoyed. :dontcare:

To clarify, I wasn't looking to date the women that were there, because none of the women there were single. Just hoping to impress enough so that one of them might put in a good word.

We all make social gaffe’s every now and then. Wise people see beyond them and that’s what you want. It will happen again. If they’re unable to see the real you and value the interaction will their friends do the same?

In other words, don’t sweat it.

People take 3rd person limited POV’s too literal. Not every sentence or word is necessarily thru the character’s POV.


Also how come 3rd person omniscient isn’t as popular a writing style?

I would prefer to see movies with interesting ideas remade into something great than an already great movie getting a remake. Carrie is one example of a movie that was already a classic that got a remake and it felt like there wasn't much point to it.

I was able to get six hours of sleep after that last shift, before having to go in again here in an hour. Feeling not quite awoke yet, naturally. Please pray for me to get through this.

[COLOR=#000000]I think you’ve spent enough time focusing on her. The only one you’re hurting is yourself. [/COLOR]

[quote][COLOR=rgb(0, 0, 255)]I am not sure I understand the question. Could you please elaborate?[/COLOR][/quote][COLOR=rgb(0, 0, 255)]
[/COLOR]
[COLOR=#000000]Was your former lifestyle the ideal environment for a godly woman? Would God compromise her virtue? [/COLOR]

[quote][COLOR=rgb(0, 0, 255)]I owe him, true enough. But I still have a hole in my soul, an emptiness, a loneliness now more than before, because she and love in general seems further away now, since I saw her with that guy.[/COLOR][/quote][COLOR=rgb(0, 0, 255)]
[/COLOR]
[COLOR=#000000]The hole can’t be remedied by the opposite sex. It proceeds her and isn’t the result of her absence. You must address the root of your emptiness. [/COLOR]
[COLOR=#0000ff][/COLOR]
[COLOR=rgb(0, 0, 255)][quote]Right now I don't have a sound mind. I can't make out head or tail of this.[/quote][/COLOR][quote]
[COLOR=#0000ff]
What I realy don't understand is. Why did it have to go on for so long? Why does it still go on? Why do I still long for her? Why do I have feelings for her. I know, how can I have feelings for a woman, I don't even know, but it all feels real enough. Why wasn't I warned? Was I warned, but did not pay heed?[/COLOR][/quote][COLOR=#0000ff]
[/COLOR]
[COLOR=#000000]You gave a spirit of lust and fantasy dominion and fed them regularly. Is there any wonder you have difficulty discerning the truth. You’re accustomed to make believe.

Consider your questions in their proper light. You long for someone who doesn’t know you exist and never made your acquaintance. You care for someone whose name and character you can’t discuss. You know nothing about her beyond casual glances.

Yet you long for her.
Care for her.
Believed you’d have a future.

None of it is real. It’s a movie playing in your head of your design that gains strength with every viewing. I mentioned bewitched for a reason.

You behave like a man under a love spell. Wholly absorbed. Irrationally so. That’s how witchcraft looks. Which is part of the reason I mentioned sirens. They’re part of the marine kingdom and prey on men like you.

There’s nothing wrong with being attracted to someone. But the measure of fixation you’ve exhibited is troubling. You’re opening yourself to unnecessary harm by operating from the void.

She’s every where. Including your churches and assemblies. You must be sober minded and avoid further indulgence of deception and fantasy. You’ll draw her to you if you don’t. [/COLOR]

My uncle died today. :( He'd been in ill health for a number of years. I guess it was time to go.
I'm so sorry to hear that. I'm praying for your family. Please let me know if you need to chat or anything.

I’m sorry for your loss. May Adonai comfort you and your loved ones during this difficult season. God bless.
