I?ve really spent 2012 so self-absorbed, haven?t I? In my defense, I got into the utlra hot-and-heavy of commitment, did the deep soul-searching that everyone does after getting engaged (don?t they?), hit rock bottom with a break-up, wrote plenty of mournful stuff, bored myself and got back with the ?Really now, are you over *all* the drama finally?? and here I am. So yes, I haven?t really spent much of the year looking at other people and their relationships and what they think of them. But a new year is here with new people, new problems and adventures of the heart. And I?m promising to bring back the social butterfly that I and this blog have always been. Let?s start with a round-up of interesting reads:

- I?m most intrigued by no.4. We never seem to think of condescension & sarcasm as would-be abuser traits. These seem to be cool & attractive behaviour, drawing us in like flies to honey. ?Are You Dating An Abuser?? (via Psychology Today)
