I'm married

[Keroin]

I have been for some time. I know I have, quite pointedly, omitted this important detail from my posts here and to that I can only say that I had reasons but they are private and shall remain so.

I’m coming forward now because, firstly, it is not usually my nature to be deceptive or misleading and I haven’t enjoyed behaving in that manner; secondly because my reasons for the misdirection are no longer an issue. Most importantly, however, is simply that I love my husband and even though he never reads this board I dislike excluding him from any part of my life.

Regardless, my apologies.

No worries. You can keep secrets or not and we'll still love ya!

 

[sb2009]

meh, no biggie.

OT...I am going between this board and a parenting board, and I thought *this* was the parenting board and I thought "OMG Keroin is HERE????" for a few seconds LOL

 

[graceanne]

You're allowed your privacy. I don't think anyone is gonna get mad at you for things like that.

 

[midwestyankee]

Damn! Now what am I supposed to do with this 17-carat diamong ring?

I have no idea why you are apologizing. Who cares if you're married or not?

I guess it would matter if you came here looking to hook up or find an extracurricular partner, but in that case I'd say this mea culpa is relevant to individuals rather than the board as whole.

In any case, my response to you is: For god's sake woman, don't worry about it. Apology entirely unnecessary. I fail to see what this has to do with your views on any topic we've ever discussed.

The only impression I've had is that you're here for friendly chat. It's up to you what you choose to share or not share. Privacy is very important to me. I would imagine that it is to a lot of people here as well. It's not that I'm trying to hide aspects of my life. It's more that not everyone needs to know every detail about my life.

 

[Recidiva]

Are you married to the penguin?

What he said. This is what I wanted to say but my brain isn't functioning right now.

Does that mean no more naked pictures? .... just kidding! I doesn't mean anything to me either at all!

 

[Keroin]

Wow, not the responses I expected at all.

Thank you.

No, I did not come here looking to hook up, at all, (hence the penguin fable). I'm just used to being very forthright in my real life and it didn't sit well with me to be otherwise...however necessary.

But thanks again. I was prepared for rock throwing and all that.

I imagine it's because she felt she was skirting a topic she felt uncomfortable skirting.

Which is cool. It's not oversharing, surely. Just filling in a circle in the questionnaire with a number 2 pencil that she's previously left blank.

And she's really, really polite. Way polite.

 

[MisterSir]

Wow, not the responses I expected at all.

You were expecting abuse? Don't understand why, it's not like you being married changes my opinion of you at all, it's just another thing to go in the mental file I have on you.

 

[Keroin]

We are both veterans of the film business. Thousands, perhaps millions, of people have seen us both naked at some point. Meh. No big deal to us.

But no, no more naked pics until the 50th B-day.

 

[chy_girl]

Nah. The rocks are saved for people who refuse to use spell check. It's all good.

 

[subish2009]

None of us signed full-disclosure forms upon joining Lit. S'all good.

 

[Keroin]

This is F, BTW. Or as I like to call him, "Lance Crossfire"...

He's more fun than a penguin, anyway.

The best part is that you're happy, that's good to hear

As for me, if I bump into someone in a line somewhere by accident, I'll say I'm terribly sorry.

I'm glad Chuck's loss is your gain.

I've disclosed that I was married, but some people think I invented my husband to pretend I have a life. He posts here and all. Doesn't seem to make a difference, but does create comedy opportunities.

May you have many excellent comedy opportunities in your lives together.

Thanks R! Definitely no shortage of comedy in our lives. 11 1/2 years together and still cracking each other up. Had our ups and downs, sure, but overall, we've had an amazing journey together.

Oh, and I never thought you were making your husband up!

Yay!

That's all really great news.

About 15 years of wanting to be together and 10 years of actually pulling it off here. Those five years taught us a lot about wanting, so I'm just planning on taking advantage of every day. Having someone who shares my sense of humor is absolutely critical, and I would hate to think of your humor going unappreciated.

I'm so happy for you, ups and downs and all

 

[ZRT]

You're the bold one, car wrecker.

You know I got your back.

I didn't think Keroin's marriage would have an impact on me, but for some strange reason, I've had a feeling wash over me after reading her post. I don't know why, but I feel I've been swimming in a sea of muck and now I can safely reveal my true story.

Some of you might see this a a bit fishy, because I have a strange sense of humor. But I can safely say this story is not a red herring. Actually, this makes me feel more inclined to expose myself for what and who I really am. I don't know what it is about someone revealing secrets about themselves that helps others do the same.

It's almost like we're all sitting in a circle, taking turns exposing our dark and devious pasts, revealing where we slipped from reality and maybe even where the bodies are buried. And afterwords, we'll be singing coombiyah.

I, for one, feel it's time to tell the truth. For whatever reason, I feel the need to tell you all what's been troubling me for years. I think of you all as friends and as such, I know you will understand when I tell you.

I'm only going to say this once, so listen closely...
I used to eat a lot of fish. I've had my share of Kipper Snacks and Sardines and there have been times when my fingers reeked of the smell of fish oil. It's now horrible to say but I was unable to wash them clean. But, I've been able to scale down my hunger, in recent months.

Yes, my friends, it's true, but now I see fish in a different way. I've reformed my ways, since Keroin has been posting about her love of fish and of penguins...not in a food way, but as real living and breathing creatures.

Today, I can honestly say I've successfully stopped the horror, the sick devouring of those innocent fishes, lined up in that tin like a coffin. And I can also say I am now able to safely walk down the isle in a grocery store and not look twice at the display and drool, like I once did.

Now I see it as it really is...a sad sight indeed. Dead fish that were once alive and swimming in a school, living care free lives and taken too soon for the sick desire of human consumption. Yes, I too was told eating fish was for my health. But I see it now as the sickness it is. Maybe by telling my story, others will understand the evil truth as the lie it is.

And I can now say my fingers no longer carry the stain of fish oil...the stench of death itself. I'm on my way to recovery...a new and brighter life. On a scale from 1 to 10, I'd say I'm swimming up stream and spawning a new and better life. And thanks to Keroin, today I'm able to speak the truth.

 

[Recidiva]

Oh hell. I must share...I'm having ceviche for lunch.

Um, I like to eat fish. But I'm glad to have helped you unburden your soul, DVS.

What have I started??
