PERSPECTIVE It has taken me a few days processing what you did and said and wrote here... In a page called Jaad and Sonette. Our journey... I've read it what feels like a million times and every time it still makes me feel raw and makes tears jump to my eyes. I guess I am writing this partly for you (you know most I'm sure) but partly also for me to reflect on the journey that brought me here. After this I'll only post memes forever. Lolol I was born with the competitive nature I have today (yes I know lol). It's been a blessing and a curse... It's always been about being the best, doing the most, leading the pack, being switched on and beyond that, achieving that myself without needing anyone else to get where I want to go. I've achieved almost every goal I've set for myself and to anyone else I am the perfect example of a self made success story. The price of that has always been personal relationships, which has taken the backseat to every goal. Sex was never a problem and was a welcome release from the intensity of everything else, nor was making friends. But I kept them at best superficial and never more than skin deep whilst being a rock for those closest to me. Some of that comes from my internal view on how feelings weaken you but some of it also from a place of fear, if I have to be completely honest. It is this narrow view that kept me in my hopeless marriage for a long time in spite of the risk to my personal safety and mental well-being. I treated that relationship and others like everything else in my life... I needed to do the best, love the hardest, throw everything in to make it work. I refused to admit the failure that it was but in the process broke a part of me and closed my heart even further to the world, never to be hurt or used again. After it all ended I felt like there was nothing left. Having given so much to everyone and everything else for so long I was simply empty. Whilst I healed, you know the unhealthy habits I threw into but it brought me to Discord. And then you happened. You frustrated me at first. It's not an unusual emotion as many people frustrate me. But at the back of the frustration was intrigue at finding a worthy opponent (lol), respect for the person I saw you to be and a chemistry that I could not deny. Loving you was a slow awakening for me... It crept up on me whilst I was distracted by the fun we were having. I don't think I would have allowed it otherwise. But before I could realize it I was lost in you. So utterly and completely that I eventually just had to admit it to myself but even harder, admit it to you. Sometimes I feel so surprised by what we have found here. I blink my eyes and realize how you have challenged me to lean into aspects of myself that I have closed down and forgotten. Your brilliant mind brings out my competition in the best possible way, making me thirst for the knowledge instead of another empty win and makes me so proud of who and what you are instead of wanting to show up a competitor. You, my love, have shown me the strength that can be found in feeling feelings and the fact that comes with matching sexual desires, wants and needs is both exhilarating and exciting. This, what I am, what you are, what we are, what we are to be... has become my own cosmological horizon. XX

For you x

So, I’m going to be completely honest here and say that this section wasn’t written until later because there are just certain things I need to preface.

Why am I writing this? It started as something just to be a token of my appreciation, something that grew into a deeper love. The thing is during that time, while things didn’t change, we underwent profound experiences. Irrelevant it is whether they were positive or negative, the reason being that it provides a veritable breadth of insight. Insight into who we are both individually and collectively as well as the people around us. This journey, these experiences brought me here to revaluate who I am and to discern exactly what we are. Who you are. It turned out to be one of the most valuable journeys of both my life, and future self.

I’ve never thought I was anything special, in fact I grew up knowing that. I did grow up with privilege and I didn’t suffer any truly traumatic events, I haven’t felt pain as others have. Physically I’m not in a higher percentile whether it be looks, height or fitness. Academically I did well but I was never the best student. Creatively I never really found my calling in art, music or performance-based entertainment. I was never down on myself because of it, I accepted the reality of who I am and what I can do to better my chances at success and a heathy social life.

The only stand out has always been relationships, where I didn’t have an issue finding someone. This was a lot easier when I didn’t really know what, or who I was looking for. I’ve never been here; I’ve never felt this. There was a time where I understood artists having a muse, but I didn’t think I’d ever experience it myself.

 I think I did okay.  I did okay because the one thing I have is my words, and while they might not be as impactful as what has historically been seen as a declaration of love, that’s because that’s not what this is. This is what I’m best at. A collection of experiences, told through words and numbers under different mediums. For us.
