She and I are on great terms, mind you. So often I see versions of myself lamenting their own failed relationships, and while I empathize, the issue with my marriage was never the fact that Kanaya and I did not get along. We always got along. The issue was that she is one of the first ~20 women I ever met, and the only one who clicked with me in that special way through those formative years of my life. We were, in our own way, all each other had. And that means very little when your planets are gone. But sometimes you realize that someone you thought you loved as a partner is just a friend you confused your feelings for because you had no other choice. I am not saying this is the case for every Rose and Kanaya out there — I know so many of them have a genuine and honest love. But that is not what ours was, and as far as the two of us are concerned, that is completely fine.
i'm really glad you figured things out, rose.
that is such a truthful thing i think many people could stand to learn here
I have seen simillar bonds form in the regiments. When bound by circumstance, passion, and camaraderie, emotions become compllicated. Many solldiers bellieved they were in llove, but were not... necessarilly a match. Gods onlly know why they woulld then come to me for advice. It does not mean the bond was not reall, or deeplly meaningfull. Simplly that it's nature was perhaps obfuscated or misidentified.
thank you for sharing rose
I'm Not A Typical Version Of The Lady You Apparently Dated, But Still Some Things Just Aren't Meant To Last. Quite Glad You Are On Good Terms With Her, My Version Of Yourself Is Someone I Respect Dearly Despite Not Being In A Relationship. Hope Your Night Is Well Miss Lalonde.
