                  Sorry to hear about this - breakups are never fun and even worse when having to be done in public. You two were such a great couple that it's going to be hard for someone like me to come to grips that it wasn't perfect!

                  You're both great people and I'm sure the future will be good to both of you.

                  I'll miss all the Tassy/Hal pics and stories tho

                              I kept telling you, 40 was way too many. best I could handle was 2 or 3 at once. ;) KIDDING... I may have an open mind...but I have a closed sphincter.

                                                    ok, that was an accident. halcyon doesn't have your address memorised vanilla, although he may be trying to get it...i saw him eyin' stewie the other day.

                                                    but *i* do have it memorised. =)

                                                      You're both great people and I'm sure the future will be good to both of you.

                                                      i know you know this, but no relationship is ever perfect. throughout our time together, even during our times of posting lovey stuff here - we still had our own issues. we are human, and relationships are hard - but they *can* be blissful with beautiful open & honest communication. don't give up on hope! perfect is no fun anyway.

                                                              Anyway, I don't know Tassy or Halcyon and have no reputation to be ruined by 'treading on the wrong toes', so I'll just say what's on everyone's mind but what they are too afraid to say themselves. I understand that they are decent people but also understand that they have made themselves into public figures, so they are no longer exempt from comment.

                                                              Firstly, I read a blog post by Halcyon in which he hinted that the break up was due to his 'problem', which I took to mean either he was gay (I know from reading GFY that he is a bit fruity) or had some mental issue (he said he was seeing a therapist about it). In which case, the breaking-up-because-of-lesbianism thing is probably a marketing ploy.

                                                              If the lesbianism thing is true, then regardless of what Halcyon may or may not say, it's all a rather humiliating experience for him. I don't need to explain the reasoning behind that one - you GFYers know what I mean

                                                              Or, was the entire relationship a sham in the first place, to put Flashcash on the map? If so, then it was very clever, like when they give Tom Cruise a 'girlfriend' to shore-up the money-making machine.

Just because things end, it doesn't mean they weren't successful -- it just means that things change. We all grow and evolve in unpredictable ways; so do relationships.

                                                                    I'm sure that while the romance is over for now, the love, understanding, friendship, work relationship, and all those other elements of what made you two so compatible will continue to flourish. I wish you both the best of luck in your personal and business lives, and look forward to getting to know you both over the years.

                                                                          Anyway, I don't know Tassy or Halcyon and have no reputation to be ruined by 'treading on the wrong toes', so I'll just say what's on everyone's mind but what they are too afraid to say themselves. I understand that they are decent people but also understand that they have made themselves into public figures, so they are no longer exempt from comment.

                                                                          Firstly, I read a blog post by Halcyon in which he hinted that the break up was due to his 'problem', which I took to mean either he was gay (I know from reading GFY that he is a bit fruity) or had some mental issue (he said he was seeing a therapist about it). In which case, the breaking-up-because-of-lesbianism thing is probably a marketing ploy.

                                                                          If the lesbianism thing is true, then regardless of what Halcyon may or may not say, it's all a rather humiliating experience for him. I don't need to explain the reasoning behind that one - you GFYers know what I mean

                                                                          Or, was the entire relationship a sham in the first place, to put Flashcash on the map? If so, then it was very clever, like when they give Tom Cruise a 'girlfriend' to shore-up the money-making machine.

                                                                          ok,

                                                                          b.) you read halcyon's blog and saw that he hinted at problems with himself that needed therapy and you assumed he is gay? ASS-U-ME'd? hopefully you get the point here, everyone else with brains will.

                                                                          c.) perhaps you need therapy, because newsflash, it's not just for "being gay" & your writing indicates you could benefit from it.

                                                                          d.) the lesbianism thing - was a lighthearted way of saying now that we're broken up i'm going to go back to women, not that we broke up because i don't love men. READ before you vomit in text. if i offended halcyon in anyway i apologise deeply, i'm pretty sure he knows what i meant though.

                                                                          e.) our relationship was very real to me, and to a lot of people in this industry and on this board. they saw us in real life, intimately sometimes, and here. who are you? what are your credentials? and why did you even bother?

                                                                                          Anyway, I don't know Tassy or Halcyon and have no reputation to be ruined by 'treading on the wrong toes', so I'll just say what's on everyone's mind but what they are too afraid to say themselves. I understand that they are decent people but also understand that they have made themselves into public figures, so they are no longer exempt from comment.

                                                                                          Firstly, I read a blog post by Halcyon in which he hinted that the break up was due to his 'problem', which I took to mean either he was gay (I know from reading GFY that he is a bit fruity) or had some mental issue (he said he was seeing a therapist about it). In which case, the breaking-up-because-of-lesbianism thing is probably a marketing ploy.

                                                                                          If the lesbianism thing is true, then regardless of what Halcyon may or may not say, it's all a rather humiliating experience for him. I don't need to explain the reasoning behind that one - you GFYers know what I mean

                                                                                          Or, was the entire relationship a sham in the first place, to put Flashcash on the map? If so, then it was very clever, like when they give Tom Cruise a 'girlfriend' to shore-up the money-making machine.

                                                                                          instead of typing boring essays on gfy.com, you may want to consider getting a life
