Well, i'm the same as everyone else as far as "when it's over, it just is", i am polite and respectful about it. i have a line of personal integrity as an individual that keeps me in check. If it is over, it is best for me to end it on a note of respect, than have to have dishonrable behavior be left in my wake, and possibly regrets. i am one that believes in never burning bridges, the world is just too small. i like to leave an honorable trail if possible. *smile However, concerning lifestyle and how serious i am about living it. i make no distinction between lifestyle and vanilla, or any other, people are simply people who join together on common ground and understanding. i don't really get into the labels except for discussion and sake of clarity. i believe we each have pieces of ourselves that attract a part of many different philosophies and interests. i believe we are a "desire and fulfillment" driven people in that respect. Many simply wish to find a place or group in which they feel a sense of belonging, and for those folks, being involved in the "lifestyle" does it for them, while others are happiest flying solo and not belonging to anything but life itself. It is my own perceptions and my own reality, and i really don't take my life too seriously anymore, i used to when i was younger, but ya live and learn. i respect myself and respect all others, and whether my relationship is labeled lifestyle or not, if i feel to leave, i will. For my relationship is not WITH the lifestyle, or any toher interest we share, but with another being, and the lifestyle being a common desire that was a part of our bond. However, i take my commitments seriously, when i give my word, i give either 100% or nothing at all, there is no halfway with me. i will give it my best shot, so that when i walk out that the door, i won't have to look back, not even once. i always try to have little to no regret over my actions or choices. Just sharing my personal view. *smile ~raiken
