Sometimes we can’t cry anymore and we’d only love to find some humor in the midst of our heartache. Here is a good place to get started and feel free to share your own finds.
Sometimes when you can’t possibly produce any more tears, you’re so cried out, and when you can’t obsessively worry one more minute about what he’s really up to, humor can save you.
You never feel like laughing when your world is coming apart. However, if the gods are smiling on you, they might send you someone or something that’ll have you doubled over in laughter for a change, not pain. Your humorous godsend then goes along on their merry way, and your mood is considerably lighter plus you have the advantage of a wee-bit-wider perspective on your life than the ridiculously narrow one intense pain affords. You’re reminded that even though this life contains untold horrors, it also contains the great gifts contained in humor that can act as a counterweight.
Here, then, are some gems we’ve come across during our own dark days, and as ever, we invite you to share your own mirthful PoSA anecdotes with us here on this page.
Don’t Reward Bad Behavior
Lindsay McKinnon is a British comedienne who had the dismal fortune of finding herself partnered with a porn addict. Her site is dedicated to making sure no one else suffers through the travails of being with a porn addicted man without laughing their arse off, as she might say.
When I first heard about Lindsay’s site, I admit to being vaguely wary; after all, I couldn’t imagine what might be remotely funny about sex addiction, any aspect of it. Within minutes on her site, I found myself laughing so hard my ribs hurt. If you love British humor as much as I do, and you need to be convinced there’s a way to view the PoSA pickle you’re in through a wickedly comical lens, go here.
