I grew up in a tiny apartment on the southeast side of Chicago. The roof leaked when it rained, and the drafts came in around the windows in the winter. There were roaches, and mice, and nothing out the window but the smokestacks over the lake, belching smog into the air.

But somehow it was less lonely than this giant, creepy house.

	And you hear things that aren't there. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Yeah, all the time. I hear her laugh, or smell pecan pie... drives me even more crazy. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It must be nice to have her close, though. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sookiescookies 2013-07-06 07:42 am UTC (link)
	Sometimes. And then sometimes it reminds me how she's not there as well. I don't like being alone most of the time (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I don't either. Thomas is here sometimes, but not always. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It must be nice to have a... boyfriend, I assume? Mine just left me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I suppose you could call him that. It is nice, but it's...difficult at times, too. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Me and Bill were the reigning King and Queen of difficult. He nearly got me killed a few times. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	~~Why would you say that~~ I'm sorry to hear that. Do you still care for him? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sookiescookies 2013-07-06 08:24 am UTC (link)
	He...I... It's complicated. I know I don't love him like I should or I'd have said yes to his proposal. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Marriage is overrated, I think. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sookiescookies 2013-07-06 08:28 am UTC (link)
	I don't think I'm meant to love like normal people. What about you? Marriage on the cards for you and Thomas? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ourloveburnsus 2013-07-06 08:30 am UTC (link)
	What?! Oh, dear, no. Nothing like that. What we have...it's...not like that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sookiescookies 2013-07-06 08:31 am UTC (link)
	Oh. Well as long as you're happy, I guess. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ourloveburnsus 2013-07-06 08:32 am UTC (link)
	I am happy. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sookiescookies 2013-07-06 08:33 am UTC (link)
	Then that's all that matters. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ourloveburnsus 2013-07-06 08:45 am UTC (link)
	Not always, but often enough. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She serves a purpose other than marriage and child production. Leave it at that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sookiescookies 2013-07-06 08:32 am UTC (link)
	Don't all women serve a bigger purpose than marriage and children? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thomasraith 2013-07-06 08:33 am UTC (link)
	And yet it's the one thing everyone leads back to. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I don't know what I want but I did want children. But I'm only 25 and I haven't met the right one for kids yet. I have lot to do first. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Yeah. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	No, I'm the dragon that eats the princess! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Well, that's not very nice of you, you know. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
