The main point of a relationship is companionship not being together for a lifetime no matter what.

Most people do not go into relationships with the goal of is lasting forever but for the happiness, fun and companionship that come with it. As long as you got that, in my opinion, the relationship did not fail. All things have a beginning, middle and end. Nothing lasts forever.

Good point. Life has no guarantees. The sooner you learn that, the sooner you can start being realistic about your expectations and start making positive changes in your life.

My lady, I'm tis a simple farmer. I know not of hugs, nor of baking delectable flour based goods. I know only pig slop, and am covered in fur and warts. Ifn't it be too much trouble, you hold him down, and I'll put its eyes out.

The fact that you confuse a truthful observation with an "attack" is further proof of the observation that YOU NEED PROFESSIONAL HELP.

You give him a bear hug, and I'll insert cake when he gasps for air.
