Re: "@oldernow 's post about a dream made me think about this...."
we didn't have perfect history we would dream of.
we won't have perfect future too.
that's not about us. that's about someone else. maybe imaginary.
forgive me for the parallels i used to convey the message.

and i guess gemini isn't the only different choice in your life.
and she, for some reason, decided to appreciate such a person. i guess people like us don't usually feel normal enough to be in relationship with.
i guess the fact that she tolerates you around speaks that she is not an ordinary person. but very rare person.
@oldernow 's post about a dream made me think about this. My wife and I live seperate lives -she works days and I work nights. We also have different interests that don't overlap. Despite this, I have this strong affection that draws me to her. I need to be near her, to constantly touch her, and I'm happy to listen to her all day, of what she's interested in. There's a tenderness there that I'll always cherrish. However, there's a part of me that also wishes to have found a like-minded...
