Did any of us in our 20's know what we really wanted out of life or how to get it? Easy to go along & not say anything about stuff we weren't sure of, just "trust" that things would work out. Then one day we realize......
This is so true. Jayce for my W and I, we had 6 years together before we decided to start even trying to have children. We were about 29-30 then. Even with our practically living together a year before marriage and all of our "couple only" time, something went wrong.
By the time we were about 35 we had grown apart. I guess there is just no knowing how things may turn out. Plus relationships are just plain hard work.
I wish all of the SSM bunch here weren't spread all over the country as we are. There are so many good people here that would be great to talk to (typing stuff still doesn't let it out like talking and seeing a compassionate listener does). If I try to talk to a friend about this problem they just can't relate, my best friend just tells me he doesn't know what to say, I don't tell him anymore.
I will look into a C the first of the year. That should be my resolution among other things. You are right... nothing to lose.
You know I think of you more as a big sister Jayce. Lots of love.
