champagne problems (rojie’s version)

LINK: champagne problems (rojie’s version)

Currently listening to: Champagne Problems – Taylor Swift

One for the money, two for the show
I never was ready, so I watch you go
Sometimes you just don’t know the answer
‘Til someone’s on their knees and asks you
“She would’ve made such a lovely bride
What a shame she’s fucked in the head, ” they said
But you’ll find the real thing instead
She’ll patch up your tapestry that I shred

Do you believe in the notion of “right person, wrong time”, in the context of romantic relationships?

Prompt snagged from: TCMC

Above, is a picture that Zaddy sent me while he was traveling in Hong Kong.

I think about this more often than I care to. Le sigh.

I’ve read other bloggers write that they don’t believe in it. I can see their POV… truly I can…

Sometimes, I feel like I’m out of sync with the universe. Like I’m an old soul who keeps floating through different eras, never fully landing in the one that matches me. And when I look back at the men who’ve passed through my life, I catch myself wondering: Why couldn’t we have met sooner? Or, why did our worlds collide at the wrong chapter?

It hurts when I realize the timing wasn’t right. It makes me feel defeated, like I keep running into people who could’ve been great matches… just not for the version of me that exists at that moment. Not for the version of them that exists at that moment either. It’s no one’s fault… but I can’t help but feel a bit wistful…

    Hugs, Rojie. They said that the right man will always stay, and I think the right man will come at the right time as well. So, all those exes didn’t deserve the lovely Rojie I know.

    I asked for some Taylor Swift merch for Christmas and hopefully I get it.

    Funny I had champagne once and didn’t like the taste of it.

      Iโ€™m not a fan of champagne either!

    Absolutely. My first husband was on his way to becoming a perfect husband- problem was at the time I was looking for the perfect lover.

      I could see that happening with me too ๐Ÿ˜†. But we canโ€™t be everythingโ€ฆ

    The one thing I really hated to hear while I was single is “Don’t worry, you’ll find someone when the time is right.” As far as I was concerned, the time WAS right, and I was still alone.

    But I did find someone.

    Eventually.

    So instead, I’ll say this:

    Odds are, it’ll happen.

    Eventually…

    It’s weird because I know that feeling exactly, and you know what funny thing is i wrote on this topic last year when my blog buddy told me to write on that . I still go to read that post written by my past self and still remember how much i cried while writing it . Now I will go and read it again .๐Ÿ˜… You reminded me of that .

    1. justrojie Avatar

      Aww, thanks for the confirmation that Iโ€™m not the only one!

      Don’t make the mistake I made. I made a recording of my angst. Listened to the tape decades later, and well, with the perspective time has provided, I just cringed.

          Cute? More like nauseating. Listening to it just reminded me how much I still needed to mature back then.

          And probably now, too.
