I often wonder "what if". Like the movie, sliding doors.
I first saw that movie years ago when H and I were dating and he was going through a stage that he didn't want to be with me. I thought it was ironic to run across it then. In 10/06, I was flipping through the tv stations, and I ran across it again. I watched it. This was only a week or two into H's affair...that's really ironic.

We will all come out of this better people, and happier people. You may not thinks so now, but trust me, with time, you will look back on your life and say "what was I thinking".
I'm already doing this. H and I were so different. I've been hanging around with people that I have more in common with, and I can feel the real me coming out rather than the person that I turned into for him.

I look forward to meeting new and interesting people (not necessarily a R, but friendships etc)
Me too. I've been meeting all different kinds of people. Just last night, I went out with one of my co-workers and some friends of his. Normally, I would have passed on a sitch like that because I'm not really a social butterfly. My H was always the social butterfly. He loved being the center of attention. Now, I can just be me...no longer living in his shadow, and I do actually enjoy going out and meeting new people. You just never know who you might meet...it all goes back to the "what if".
