This past Sunday-yesterday-marked the 3 year point since I first came across my SO's posting and our connection in the London UK Craigslist. To me, ever since, it has been a special day with meaning. He has not ever mentioned it per se, I don't know how he feels (or even if he does) about the small but important timing of it.

I sent him an email yesterday:

~This day, 11th of March, is important to me. I don't know if you have been noting the fact or not but today is precisely 3 years since I found your post on London CL. 3 wonderful, growing, changing, expansive and loving years. So, may there be many more. May there even be one of the years where we can actually hang out in real time-together even. Like you got to do in NYC. I know not to count my chickens before they are hatched though!

I'm glad-always-that I was hanging around the CL ads that night. Boredom can be the source of Miracles.
You're one of mine.

It was fired off at 12:39 am. As I write this now, I have heard nothing. Again. Still. And I am tired of it. I can't help but thinking back to those months 25 years ago and how I was treated then-there was NO QUESTION I was wanted, loved and desired. And we didn't even have sex!! Just cuddles and kisses but that was enough and everything.

Maybe it's time to finally move on? I don't know...

Hi Poet,

Based on his reputation of long periods of silence, it's not uncharacteristic for him not to reply within a day or two. I don't know what to say to you regarding whether you should let go or not as only you know what has held you for this long.

I know I have often wondered though, why or how you manage to keep positive.

I wish you clarity.

Poetman I don't have a lot to says since I don't know the ENTIRE story, but based on sydoney's post, if he has a history of not responding right away I'd give it some time. I do hope things work out for you the best way possible and I'm sorry I'm not much help here.

"Giving up does not mean you're weak, sometimes it means you're strong enough to let go."

"Fairy tales are more than true. Not because they tell us dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be defeated."

"I believe everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they are right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together."

"when people love eachother, and then suddenly one of them isnt there anymore, its the distance that hurts, and the distance is the same no matter whos doing the leaving."

Oddly enough, he was online last night (first time in about a month) and we had a wonderful chat for a good hour or more. Long and short of it, he may be coming up for a visit in July while my daughter is visiting her grandparents. We'll see. It's the most optimistic yet though-so I'm happy
