Possibly also another major reason that I never had anything to do with him ever again. :-P to you too…

Watching people grow older and wiser is a painful business, and it always amazes me how much faster other people do it than I do. Leonardo de Caprio? Well, I'm sure he was very nice dear. :-P AB Well, things are a little more civilised there since I wrote that, (some of my posts have a rather considerable blog-lag, I’m afraid), but they are probably more definite and sadder.

As a naughty girl who did have a fling with Another Man (who looked disarmingly like Leonardo di Caprio) myself, I have to say I am still flabbergasted. Yes, OK, relationships sometimes go tits-up and I refuse to accept that the cheater is invariably the villain of the piece. But if you are going to then try and Sort Things Out with the poor cuckold, you do not, DO NOT, keep in touch with your flingathing. Even if your original partner, for whatever reason, jolly well deserved the brute slap-in-kisser of having you prove them eminently replaceable. And even if, as I said, the original deserved it, you still have to find some way of proving that you are worth the effort, sacrifice of pride, pain, and rage you are putting her/him through. After all, it may have been psychologically necessary to have a fling, but it is never psychologically necessary to be discourteous and play games with your hapless, bleeding, struggling, enraged and frightened mouse. Harrumph. Oh very dear indeed.
