31 is most certainly an age of questioning and discovery. I wish you well in
your journey.
I was married for seven years, and followed that with a relationship for a
little over three. This made up the vast majority of my adult long term
relationship experience (I'm 34). Now I'm exploring the concept of something
entirely different...the happy medium of the overwhelming passion with the long
term friendship.
Dogma can be dangerous in all things, Love is no different. In every Love, I
have learned valuable lessons, some joyous, some painful, all important. I
remain opento the lessons of Love, and in remaining so, remain open to the Love
itself. I embrace it with the wanton abandon of the samurai, who enters the
battlefield with no fear of death, and in doing so, leaves the field, not
unscathed, but still alive, and ready for future glories.
...and may it always be so.

To think I am able to say all these things, yet I've been married
since I was 18 and never have I been with another man. 13 years
later, that little bit of wonderment remains in investigation.
Pushing the devil back into the hole he came out of. Removing my
horns. I will not succumb to my own demise. Ignore this comment.
