Marriages

Well, I think this speaks to my circumstances as well. I am hugely co-dependent, and I don't really feel safe and secure unless I am in a romantic relationship, most or all of the time. I have been married twice already. My first wife, Toni, is Latina, and my second wife, Mae, is Black. And now, surprise, surprise, I am engaged to be married again. Julie is Caucasian, but what matters most, is that she is the love of my life and my best friend.

Julie is so much like my mother it is shocking. My relationships with women are practically a carbon copy of the way my father tended to interact with women. The older I get, the more I see him in me and I find it disoncerting. One of my "character defects" is that I get angry very easily (something I may have inherited from my father), and finally, that is something I am REALLY acknowledging and addressing.

Wish me luck!

Feel free to write me at DVI. I still have a few more months before I parole, so I would really enjoy it if you shared your thoughts and stories with me. This will really help me in my healing process as well.

Holla if ya hear me!
