The Notebook

Don't watch "The Notebook" when you are missing your signifcant other or have just gone through a breakup. I knew when I bought the movie today that I would watch it inspite of the fact that it would remind me of the hubby and I. Not the way we got together, but the way we are when we are with each other. Yeah, it's a movie and all but they interact like a real couple..they fight, they tell each other how it is, they keep each other on track, they inspire each other to be better, and most of all they do it all b/c they love each other beyond what most people can comprehend. Why do I torture myself this way?? I don't know..it's kind of a masochistic thing or something. I face the fact that I do miss him and feel like it's ok to cry b/c I am crying with the movie..know what I mean??
Being in love is sensational and I love all that goes all along with it. Everyone has their ups and their downs and that's what makes life interesting. So, here we are in an in between time. Not an up, not a down. Just a time suspended. A time that we are having to learn our way through b/c we have never experienced it before.
So, maybe I should actually say, do watch "The Notebook" if you are missing someone. I have had a good cry and yearn for my soulmate in a healthy way. Makes me appreciative for what I have and can't wait for it to come back.
