If I'm with someone for too long, I begin feeling trapped.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I've got a new relationship and I'm trapped in this old life.
I get angry at myself for staying in relationships way too long.
What I have learned over the years is to try to stay in the moment. I want to feel it all because I've realized nothing lasts.
I'd never want to be trapped. I never like to stay in one place too long. I always flit around, I never settle anywhere. So being married would be being trapped.
I am not very good with relationships. With anyone. I can't be locked up with anyone for too long.
I find that when I'm ready for something to end, I transition quickly. But when something ends before its time, I find it hard to move on.
Every relationship probably has, at its inception, a hundred things that you could pick on and divert you from it, but the feeling is there. You figure out a way to make it work.
I'm pretty horrible at relationships and haven't been in many long-term ones. Leaving and moving on - returning to a familiar sense of self-reliance and autonomy - is what I know; that feeling is as comfortable and comforting as it might be for a different kind of person to stay.
I'm looking for a feel and I have to find what that feel is before I can move on from there. I'm not necessarily catching stuff in such a simple way - I don't need to. So, I'm going for something else.
There have been people I've warmed to over the years but, as the situation I'm in is so fleeting and transient, I've always known it's going to be over kind of real quick.
