I love the title of the thread! Makes me want to watch The hobbit and lotr all over again. Or read them if I can find my copies.

Lately, I have been feeling a lot like the elves. Very weary, like I don't belong in this new world with the new realities where what I hold dear dont matter anymore.

Anyways.

Painter, I live in a place where fault-based D is practised. That didn't stop xh from cheating on me. He knew my soft spot (erm, him?) and called my bluff. He knew that I wouldn't go for the jugular. And I didnt. I didn't fight him for alimony.

Rules can't govern feelings or cheating, although they can make cheaters hurt. Well, unless their betrayed spouses are soft- hearted idiots like me.

So there you go.

You can call me Dory/ Grl.

As a wise fish once sang,"Just keep swimming!"

It's no use to go back to yesterday because I was a different person then.
