Why burden the kids and make them worry? Plus, I guess I just don't get this self-absorbed attitude that I see so much of with these WAS's. For f*ck's sake, why do they feel the need to be so selfish as to try to recreate what they think they "missed out on?" Gee.....what if we all left our significant others to go back in time to "find ourselves?"
Nobody's life experiences are completely in line with what we thought they would be. And that's because WE MADE CHOICES!! Just because we think they cause some sort of "emptiness" now does not mean we are automatically entitled to a do-over.
Why is it so wrong to just grow the f up and do the right thing by your spouse and children? I would hazard a guess that none of us had the perfect childhood. So why be a prisoner of it? Why visit those issues onto your loving H or W when it's not their fault?
Sorry, I am just stunned by all the navel-gazing and years wasted by self-indulgent WAS's.
