Why not just tell him that?

How about something along the lines of "you know I'm not looking for a relationship. I just wonder if you are happy with the way things are. If it's easier for you, we can end things now. I wouldn't want to come between you and your future arranged wife. If you're cool with continuing, that's ok too."

it was today

November already?
Time sure flies.
Before you know it
Everyone dies.


And that, my friends, is why I don't write poetry.

I wonder if Halloween being "forbidden" by some religious sects is part of the appeal. It's as much a Christian holiday as Christmas and Easter. (Unless someone is able to explain where in the Bible we will find egg hiding bunnies and gaily decorated fir trees.)

Oh geez, arranged marriage? Let me guess - he doesn't know (or doesn't particularly like) the woman, but he has to marry her to please his parents?

Definitely don't expect to ever be more than casual friends with benefits, though it wouldn't surprise me if he doesn't mind continuing as-is even after the marriage.

I'm not eloquent, I can't help you compose a message to him. Why not just be straightforward and ask "what are you hoping to accomplish with this relationship? Should we just end it now or does it have some sort of rewarding future?"

I talk a lot about my dad.

It's ok to love someone who has been bad to you, but just don't let them continue hurting you. If you love someone you will tell them when they are wrong so they have an opportunity to correct themselves, and if they won't, you will distance yourself so they know you are serious.

Plus you need to keep yourself safe.

It's ok to love someone who is bad, but it's not ok to enable and encourage the bad behaviors.

Just let me ramble.

Your kittens are gorgeous.

It's ok to mourn the loss of your horse and at the same time feel relieved, and it's ok to feel guilty about feeling these conflicting emotions - everyone does.

You need that two weeks to get your meds stabilized. Do whatever it takes to get that time. And ramble as much as you need, always.

Is it ok for male actors or musicians to wear a touch of makeup on stage?

Huh I was thinking "why not" but I had no idea how normal and common it is.

Well in my high school drama club back in the late 80s/early 90s if you went on stage, you wore makeup. Aside from that, I also don't know how common.

As for "ok", of course. It might not be socially acceptable for males to wear makeup, but it's a personal choice. Anyone can choose to wear or not wear makeup.

If a person is under stage lights without makeup, their face will look faded, washed out. They will almost look faceless. Stage actors almost always wear makeup, more than is typically worn by non-actor women. I don't know about movie and television actors.
