Love Lost… Love Gained.
The online world is relatively new to me. I’ve always been a reality based Goddess, but a few years ago my life changed quite dramatically and I moved internationally for a job. I was and am a naturally out going person and have never had problems making friends. I usually meet people through friends and well, at “home” I’d been a very confident person.
However, I was suddenly thrust into a very fast pace society of HK and the only people I knew were work colleagues and an ex. This was going to take a lot of getting used especially since my nearest and dearest were thousands of miles away from me. I had to use the internet to keep in contact with them.
This in turn lead to long hours on the internet and late nights surfing illicit pages… which is where I stumbled onto an online sexual community. These people felt like kindred spirits, ones with whom I could be myself and act as nutty, as I did with some of my dearest friends back home. The sexual element also helped me keep up my flirting skills.
Of course, I didn’t reveal my name or any of my personal details. No, I decided to reveal only the sexual side of the Goddess. This was lots of fun and for a while I became lost in the drama and craziness. However, I did emerge with some wonderful friends and a learning experience that has forever effect my life.
I met a man… a wonderful man who changed my world. I risked my career, my real life relationships, my very sanity for him. I crossed oceans to be with him. Was he worth it in the end? I don’t know, it’s too soon to tell. However, through this experience I got to know myself better and will never regret what I did. I gave myself completely, I can not speak for him because I would not want to overestimate or underestimate his feelings. His experience is not mine to express.
When I came down from my high, I started falling and realised he wasn’t there to catch me. So. I fell and shattered into pieces. Luckily, the most amazing friends I’d met online were there to make sure I didn’t bleed too much. These amazing people listened and never judged. In fact, one had created a most wonderful place, a place I can call my online home (www.just-kinky.com).
Yet, like I said before, I am a reality based Goddess and I was still alone in a strange land with relative strangers for friends. This is when an extraordinary thing happened. The one man I least expected to understand was there for me. I didn’t have to share him with anyone, I didn’t have to wait until he had an opening in his schedule, I didn’t have to watch the time with him. He was my quiet and gentle glue.
He didn’t have the smooth words that I once was showered with, nor was he inconsistent. I really didn’t expect that HE’D be the one to make me whole again. He had been in my life a long time and I knew he loved me as I loved him. We’d once been madly in love with each other, for him I’d risked a lot and followed him to two countries, but time and work and lack of communication wore us down. He was my friend but yet, almost a stranger. We’d been lovers but never best friends.
As my head started to clear and my hurt fade, I became to appreciate his gentle ways and became aware of how much I’d come to depend upon him. He knew everything about me, the good, the bad, the ugly even the no-so-Goddess like moments and he still loved me. He might not have been vocal, but his actions have spoke louder.
I’m not the same girl he once knew, but I am a woman who understands, hopefully a bit better, the word commitment.
