It has been quite a few years since any of my postings, but I feel an update is in need. I enjoy reflecting on my past, it allows me to see what I have overcome and what I am still struggling with. Carrying on from my post over 3 years ago.. Alex and me said goodbye, and I have only contacted him a few times by text when it gets really hard or on birthdays / occasions. It has now been 11 months since we last spoke, on his birthday. Rob broke things off with me because I kept my relationsip with Alex going on for far too long. Months after, I sent him a letter to apologise for how I treated him, he is now in a long loving relationship and I am glad for him.
So my life now.. I currently have one part time job at Jollyes which is 24.75 hours a week on minimum wage. I still smoke and I still drink regularly. My rent costs me £200 a month which leaves me with about £400 a month for spending. I am with a lovely man called Tom, whom I have been with for a year and 4 months, since the 11th of July 2016. We of course have had our issues, but I do believe we have the power to pull through almost anything. We met at my first job, Matalan. I met him when he was just 16 years old and I was 19, keep in mind I am 23 now. We were really good friends at work, we would always make each other laugh by messing up each other's departments. It was depression that bonded us, we both went through it and went on medication because of it. We have very similar taste in music and we get along wonderfully. I probably do depend on him more than I should do, but at least I have made improvements from the last relationship. We are strong, I know it.
Currently I live with my parents. In my home I live with Rou the chinchilla, Milo and Spyro the ferrets, Luna the dog, some pond fish and from a couple of days ago, some tropical fish. I sleep with Luna most nights, she is much better behaved than Webster ever was. I feel he knew when I needed him much more than she knows, although perhaps I just need less support than I did years ago. I love all of my companions very much so.
Perhaps I shall keep up with these blog posts, perhaps I shall not. Talk to you soon, maybe.
