I think this is just harder than I thought to admit that I failed at my M & I'm going back to rewrite history to make the beginning a fairy tale & H a Prince Charming. It wasn't. Hes not.

The reality is that we had problems like everyone else. Although it wasn't perfect, I loved him and it wasn't enough for him to want to fix it.

The reality is, it still isn't.

I tried for three years to make it better. It's not going to magically change in three weeks.

As Robx would say...I need to stop dreaming and follow reality.

I just wanted to put that out there--so when I start getting all hopeful and dreamy I can snap myself back reality.


GREAT POST and so true!
