I have been trying to reach the girl I used to work with up until last November. We had stayed in touch but I haven't heard from her since Spring. I, of course, put it off and put it off and just never tracked her down although she's in the next town. For several weeks though, she has been on my mind relentlessly. She has leukemia and I was afraid she was sick again...
Finally, I found her husband's comicbook store on Myspace and emailed him. She's sick but not from the leukemia.
She went to Belize in April - it's not unusual for her to travel alone - she's done it before. She's got an adventurer's heart.
She met a man in Belize, though. She came home and threw her husband out and the man moved in less than two weeks later. Her husband has not spoken to her since, although I'm sure he did like most husband's do and begged, cried, bargained and pleaded at first...
No wonder she wouldn't respond to my attempts to reach her. She knows firsthand of my stand. It took shape right in front of her eyes. It was right in the office with her that I fell apart day after day once I came out of the tunnel. She knew I'd never congratulate her.
This is a woman who kept a picture of her husband on her desk after 10 years of marriage and would pick it up and look at him adoringly a year ago. They talked on the phone daily and did everything together. Everything except go to Belize. She loved him, there is no doubt about that in my mind.
That is a terrible story, I feel for the guy. Of course she won't answer or keep in touch, she is ashamed. I think I am slowly turning to were I just don't have a lot of faith in people any more, I use to optimist about everyone, thinking my eyesight is getting a little cloudy when it comes to anybody I know.
