Theres 2 sides to everything…even though you may not understand or accept the other persons side of the story it’s still there…

I agree with you on this... except to add that someone once told me that there's 3 sides to every story... there's your side, my side and then there's the truth...
It'd be cool if I could sort it all out one of these days... :-\

I'd also add that unless everyone in the world had a camera on them everyday 24/7 you may never figure it out. And even then, people would find ways around the hard evidence. Sad but true. :)
Micro, if you want to write something you have the right idea - just do it. It's soooo helpful to me personally. I just started writing one day in high school and I haven't stopped since. And then I was pleasantly surprised to find out that a few people thought I was actually good. True, the publishing world may not share that opinion, but I'll find out one of these days. In the meantime, I just keep writing. You should try it. Who knows, you could be the next famous author in our midst. ;)
Re: Book Idea. Need some advice. timetobefree: I would also be very interested in reading it.
microtech1 makes a very good point. If you have been cheated on, a typical immediate response is to point every finger at the cheater. But with time, once the dust settles, then you can often times look back and see what role you played in the demise of the marriage. This was absolutely true for me. I thought I was blameless...but after some time and healing, I finally realized that I wasn't perfect. His act may have been the straw that broke the camel's back, but I certainly added lots and lots to the camel's load. Did I mention lots? And now I can accept responsibility for that.
On a side note, marajade, I am so glad that you decided to come back and hang around this time. I know you had a rough time the first time around, but I am glad you gave us another chance! It just shows me what great character and integrity you have.
Thanks!
Amy

Wow, thanks. Such high praise. I think I teared up a bit from that. Thank you.
Re: Book Idea. Need some advice. lemondrop: I get these weird ideas in my head sometimes... like - wouldn't it be cool if there was a movie about your relationship (not a relationship that's just kind of *like* yours, but your actual relationship in particular) and wouldn't it be cool if you could just watch the whole plot unfold from each of the characters perspective to kind of understand them?
The little things that led to the breakdown that I'll never know or understand are what hurt the most... but I think with understanding comes a certain amount of peace... even if we don't like it, if we can understand it then we can make peace with it... :P
Re: Book Idea. Need some advice. MaraJade: On a total off topic side note, I just had to point out that my previous post was my 42nd one. And we all know what that means right folks? We don't? Sad. Tsk tsk.
42 is the answer to life, the universe and everything. So don't despair. It's right there in our post numbers!
AND. . . .back to the discussion. lol.
