Madrid

  Tue 15th March 2011

It's ended with Frances. It's been another stressful few days. She has been going on and on about wanting to read the blog and eventually gave me a bit of an ultimatum about it. I spent a couple of hours which I should have spent writing my PhD redacting it as far back as November and removing the passwords. Then I showed her it to her, instantly regretting the decision, feeling that I'd lost the ability to write openly.

Her reaction? Not a single comment about any of the nice things I or you have said about her. Simply a demand to see another earlier post which was still password protected. I lost my rag a bit at that point and sent her this:

No, I'm sorry. I like to keep a certain bit of my life separate. I hate this feeling of being scrutinised, of you probing every single thing I have said or done, as if I'm not entitled to any kind of private life. I felt absolutely crap after releasing the posts to you, as if I was undergoing a trial, a trial from which I would never, because of your limitless paranoia, ever be found not guilty. And knowing that one of the things I most enjoy doing in my life - writing - was now forever going to be trammelled and restrained and polite. I let you have all that information, and the only response you made was not a thank you, or to comment at all on any of the nice things people have said about you, but to demand yet more and more details and information about what I say to other people when you're not around. You don't like me having friends of my own, basically. You've got to realise that nowadays these are people you meet on the internet as well as in real life.

I want us to continue, but I have absolutely broke my fucking back leaning over backwards to please you this afternoon, interrupting hours and hours and hours of studying time, putting myself at huge risk of personal embarrassment and humiliation for your sake, and all I get is this. No, you will never have the password to the blog, and if you by any chance hack it I will move the domain elsewhere and my readers with me.

Miraculously, and to cut a long story short, we made up again. Then last night I left my phone at her house. This morning she writes "You left your phone at my house. What a mistake that was!" She's read all my texts and now doesn't want to see me any more. She then sent some unpleasant emails saying that she hadn't enjoyed the sex, and various other things. I replied saying I found the sex brilliant with her and loved it.

She's coming round later with my phone, to collect keys, swap little items of belongings and so on, although I wouldn't be surprised if she doesn't let me have my phone back. I'm also praying she doesn't make a scene in front of Bela. Maybe I should move to Madrid.

I suppose you could call yourself Acantilado el Empalador.

As long as you’re not nearby. I think your organ might be a bit more impressive than mine.

It’s being built by a bloke near Birmingham, so I don’t think it would have alarmed George Formby.

Awwww. Shame. About her, about the row, and about your giving her the blog URL. Couldn’t you have made one up on blogger? :(

Doing it on Blogger wouldn’t have prevented her constantly asking me for the password. I should have just calmly kept saying no but that’s easier said than done when you want to keep someone. Now she’s been trawling through my phone messages (which include some flirty ones with Denise, about which I feel not the slightest guilt). She’s still got it and is probably enjoying her 15 minutes of power by not giving it back. It would have been my email next, and then I’d have to give reports about the times I go out with other women, and on and on, a spiral (or vortex rather) of mistrust. Never mind, it was good while it lasted. Onward!

Shame as you seemed to be really enjoying the sex, maybe geeting a bit to carried away with some of your amorous remarks Lol.
Anyway onwards and upwards.I still have a sneaky feeling for a reconciliation on the sex front.

WLTM literate woman, 40-65. Must have nice tits, a PhD, and an mdma factory in the shed, although the first on its own will do in the short term.


There are plenty of bastards who drink moderately. Of course, I don't consider them to be people. They are not our comrades.

The more democratised art becomes, the more we recognise in it our own mediocrity.
James Meek

Tell me, why is it that even when we are enjoying music, for instance, or a beautiful evening, or a conversation in agreeable company, it all seems no more than a hint of some infinite felicity existing apart somewhere, rather than actual happiness – such, I mean, as we ourselves can really possess?
Turgenev, Fathers and Sons

I hate the iPod; I hate the idea that music is such a personal thing that you can just stick some earplugs in your ears and have an experience with music. Music is a social phenomenon.
Jeremy Wagner

La vie poetique has its pleasures, and readings--ideally a long way from home--are one of them. I can pretend to be George Szirtes.

Using words well is a social virtue. Use 'fortuitous' once more to mean 'fortunate' and you move an English word another step towards the dustbin. If your mistake took hold, no-one who valued clarity would be able to use the word again.
John Whale

One good thing about being a Marxist is that you don't have to pretend to like work.

The working man is a fucking loser.
