That's exactly what my therapist told me. She said by the time a couple
comes to her for counseling, it's usually too late!
And with his permission, I want to share something that my buddy Marcel wrote
me regarding my recent separation with my partner of 23 years. I wasn't
going to openly post this to the list, but it was so funny and it just made
my day!
Marcel wrote (although I changed a couple of things) :
"Ah yes the old love tri-angle debacle shuffle. Well we both know theres no
cure for that except I provide my top 10 "get over it" cures.
10) Say "f*ck that... (provide your proclivity label here)[[marcel
recommends]] c*nt (for straight men) motherf*cker (for straight women)
c*cksucker (for gay men) bitch c*nt (for lesbians) 100 times. Do this and
TELL me you dont feel better.
9) Listen to blues music for 12 hours then play the song "You aint seen
nothing yet" by the Bachman Turner Overdrive for one hour at 10 on your
stereo.
8) Joni Mitchells "A Case of You" 100 times in a row.
7) Take up sewing and make a voodoo doll of you know who. Apply pins
frequently.
6) Change your political party just for the hell of it. Go to rallies. (Don't
know if I can do that one :~)
5) Play the video game Doom and each time you blow away a humanoid scream
"Take that_____________" (your ex).
4) Rob a major department store in broad daylight. Its a great distraction
from love problems.
3) Drive into the middle of some red neck town (if you're gay) wearing a
Issey Miyake dress which will provide you with immediate attention you never
believed you'd get as a person.
2)Unload a box of 2500 tasmanian crickets into the apartment of your rival.
they are tiny, live for years in the smallest crevice of any abode, have loud
mating calls and procreate madly. Good luck finding or exterminating them.
1) Realize that in this world (Temptation Planet)the hardest thing to do is
keep any relationship real vibrant lively and fulfilling for a significant
period of time and the failure of any relationship is probably more likely
than for it to succeed which means that you are still the wonderful person
you have always been which means two things. (1)The person who left you for
someone else will soon be in your shoes and (2)you will soon be in his.
(Bonus alternative) Go to the next jonifest where you will be immersed in
love and music and good vibes with a group of people who will appreciate you
and have a ball.
Hope this helps.
Marcel "
Thanks Marcel!!! I especially like the Bonus Alternative!!!
