When I Thought I’ve Seen It All

The Word

My last and final temporary relationship was crossing paths with the bruja. I never believed in brujeria or that a female can pull a vodoo on your ass. Believe me it’s out there. Be extra careful…

My mother use to call me the gopher. For the simple fact that a gopher goes from one hole to the other. It’s funny now but with time I had to give it some thought on what she meant by it. She was basically telling me that I was going from one bad romantic relationship to another. Before getting through one relationship I was already getting caught up in another without really paying serious attention to what had just happened.

My Twenties (20's)

Where this all of this take me to ? I’ll tell you that I was always taking baggage from my previous relationships on to the next relationship. It sounds crazy but we are not there yet the craziness is yet to come. I was dealing with a new relationship with the issues of the past relationship at the same time. It’s kind of confusing. To make it clear I started to live my life in cycles.

I started to believe and adopt some self-sabotaging beliefs. I was living out my insecurities. I had been cheated on before so I would then believe that every girl that I would date would cheat on me or I would sometimes push them to do just that. I now think about it and tell myself. Who wouldn’t get tired of that. I know I would.

I pretty much lived my twenties and til about the time I was thirty-five (35) years of age. I decided to just give up on relationships and work on myself. So I did. I lived alone for five (5) years. I was okay with that. I can honestly say that I was at peace with myself and with others. I had to learn to accept life the way life is and take it as it comes.

At the age of thirty-five (35) after a breakup. Yes my previous girl-friend left me for another guy. It sucked but life goes on so to go on I must. Instead of getting better I’m now just living to feed more on my insecurities. I would think. Without any intentions to start a new relationship. I cross paths with this girl. We met exchanged a few words. We made plans to meet again later on that day.

The Bruja

We come together later that evening with another couple. We talked and shot the shit together for about two (2) to three (3) hours. I asked if she wanted to stop by my place and she agreed. We talked and ended up spending the night together. I got good vibes then she invited me to go over to her place the following morning. So me being the obedient person that I am. I decided to go.

Got to her place and we kept on conversating realizing that she had a lot in common with me from previous past experiences. She had told me that she had broken up with her boyfriend. That her boyfriend was in jail for something he had gotten caught up with. Without wanting to start another relationship due to my current break-up. Here I go again and make her my girlfriend.

Here I go again starting a new relationship and still dealing with the experience of the last one. I don’t tell no one about it. I keep everything to myself. I mean I know what I ‘m going thru. At the end of the day I feel like I’m on my own anyway so I keep on flowing.

About a month later her and her dad take me to the side. The both tell me “Robert in a couple of days we are going to start hearing you think” Inside of me I’m like WTF! But don’t say anything. I can still remember clearly that grin they had on their face. I didn’t give anything into that statement but think about it. The way I think. Who in the world is going to like me. I think the worst before getting to the bad to see the positive in something. I’m screwed

Sure enough about three (3) days later. I was currently working for Ace parking in downtown San Diego, CA. I start to hear my name being called from different locations from what it sounds like different locations or within different places in my own head. Up until now twenty (20) years later. I can’t still tell the difference.

I realize that What I’m about to tell you makes me look like I’m out thee waiting for the bus where the bus don’t run. Believe me that I know what time it is. I just now added another issue to the tons of issues I already have. With my luck I now have to live like this. To me it’s just the typical life dealing with typical people. I want something more than just the typical.

To make a long story longer after a few months girlfriend got caught up and went to prison for something she got caught up doing. By this time I had a place of my own and living by myself with these voices in my head having no clue who the f it was. I still live with such experience.

After a year the girlfriend gets released from prison. She decides to give me a call. We talked, I go over to see her and end up taking her to her parole officer. That was the last time I see her. A few years later I start a new relationship with the girl that I’m still with for the last ten (10) years. It’s been a challenge for me to be in this new relationship. The voices from the X has been following me ever since and not in a friendly way. What to do ?

Telepathy

According to google telepathy is direct transfer of thought from one person (sender or agent) to another (receiver or percipient) without using the usual sensory channels of communication, hence a form of extrasensory perception (ESP). While the existence of telepathy has not yet been proved, some parapsychological research studies have produced favourable results. It has helped me get into the field of psychology.

Intentional Torts

According to google intentional tort is a category of torts that describes a civil wrong resulting from an intentional act on the part of the tortfeasor. Under tort law, seven (7) intentional torts exist. Four (4) of the are personal: assault and battery, intentional infliction of emotional distress, and false imprisonment… The most common intentional torts for which people contact an attorney are battery, assault and trespass to property.
