Yeah, John, the writing prompt calls for it to be your clone (in the gender you are sexually attracted to), not mine, although I am flattered (blushing).
In all seriousness, when l think about John and l, we were different expressions of the same essence, like we all are … and the connection is beyond what l can comprehend. I think others can mirror what we are, in how we create and manifest through our choices, and a partner can mirror the possibilities without words, and it is through those reflections that we also create. In the safety of acceptance and love 🥰… trust 🙏🏼
Yes, I feel that trust is right at the base of every love relationship. It’s the one thing that everything else is built upon. If that dies, everything crumples.
No, you’re right, Lisa, but aren’t we supposed to love ourselves first before we are able to love anyone else? With a clone, we would already love ourself …
CJ, I think I would find it rather boring. It reminds me of a saying I read years ago, "if you and your boss always have the same thought, one of you is redundant." D
I love your honesty, Julia, especially your parting remark! In many respects, I drive myself nuts, too. My forgetfulness, but I’ve said it before, my mind is like a sponge. Load it up too much for the day ahead and some of the information is bound to dribble out …
lol! My wife is almost the complete opposite of me, thank God! However, we’re both horrible at directions; our kids gave us a GPS for the car when they first were available, which they claim saved the marriage!
I quarrel with myself more than I do with anybody else.
I know what you mean, John. I think we all do that to some degree, so you’re in good company. 😁😁
Yours, maybe. But my own?

I think you slightly misunderstand me.
Hmmm … if I did, please clarify for me?
No. I prefer to leave it in a cloud of creative ambivalence.
A line form a couple of songs come to mind for me if l was to marry a male clone of myself.
“If you leave me can l come too” …. And …. “So your bags are packed by the door…. darling, I don’t blame you cause l’d leave me too” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
That’s a fair answer, Simone! Would there be any positives to it?
😂😂 l can cook, l have a good sense of humour, l am passionate. I am loyal and have integrity. 😂
Those are definitely positives … and your male clone would have them too!
Yes, though l get sick of myself sometimes 😂
Hilarious! I can’t see why, Simone! But it’s honest and I respect that.

I think it all comes down to 'you shouldn't marry anyone you don't love' or is that just me?! ha!

Thats true!
😁💞❤️

That makes a lot of sense, Dave! I’m relatively sure most people would also find it boring. We’ll see by the end of the day.
Thank you for your thoughtful response.
I would finally learn why it is about me that irritates people so much.
Oh but you would also learn what it is about you that people love!
💖
I mean, my Mom has been mistaken as an Older Sister loads of times.
This just got awkward. Lol
I can imagine how it would be awkward, Simon.
You must almost want to put a sign on your back … “She’s my mom, NOT my sister!”
Thank you for commenting. 💞❤️
lol, You’re welcome. :)
When I was in Middle school when those comments started happening, that was my reaction but I’ve gotten used to it. XD
It must have been interesting though. 😁😁
A preposterous idea, C.J !
What was your nightcap brew ?
I would not want my handsome husband to look like me.
Vive la difference !
Hilarious, Mary Angela! It wasn’t my idea, hun, only a writing prompt.
Vive la difference is right!
hug
Agreed: no way!
I already drive myself nuts. My husband is my compliment, my rock, and indeed my other half. We are yin and yang and it works better that way.
...and besides, he at least claims to like my cooking! ;)

(sigh)
Oh well … Thank you, Julia!
I wouldn't marry a clone of myself but maybe a clone of a celebrity!
Woo Woo, Connie!
😹 You’re too funny. I would never want to be in a relationship with a clone, too boring!
(laughing) 😁😁❤️❤️
A lovely topic to ponder on…
💞❤️
I'd still have good cooking, but my golf game wouldn't be any better.
John, your golf game wouldn’t change, true. You would still be you. Your partner would be a clone of you in the gender you are attracted to.
