Hey Val, I'm really liking your new found perspective. You are well on your way to showing the world just how special you are. Soon you will find that the world truly is your oyster. Make the most of it!
"Valentines has never been a huge holiday for me.. but I said yes.. and then cried. I can't remember the last time my w took me out on a date without a prompting of "can we go out more or let's try to set a date night"....
... I'm not rewriting history... I'm acknowledging it.
It's just bitter/sweet to have relationships NOW that I wish I had with my wife THEN. The love and safety that is involved with it."
I can so relate to your sentiment above. I could never get my W to commit to dates and if we did, it was always to dinner and a movie. A movie! You know, the only place on the planet where you are sitting next to your partner for 2+ hours but never say a word to each other.
Anyway, Val - you seem to be doing really well. Keep up the good work.
PS The Tattoo on your neck isn't going to say something like SPRINGBREAK 1982 is it? That would not be such a good idea!
