like a drifter I was born to walk alone

I logged back into Instagram. FF sister post a picture of FF and her son fishing. I "liked" the picture. In the beginning I was hurt he just stopped paying any attention to anything I posted. So I said to myself "well I'll do the same back" But no. I decided to act in the way I see fit, never to punish someone and never to withhold because I won't get it in return. It's the true meaning of no expectations.

I love that Lots of strength of character represented there! What is "FF" short for? All I can think of is firefighter? Is your ex a firefighter maybe? I have a feeling you're going to tell me and I'm going to be like "oh duh, why didn't I know that" LOL!

Or seeing a mom and dad joke around and enjoy their son at a cubscout meeting together.

I have an amusing story along those lines! Not too long after BD, but before D, W and I met at our son's school for a meet-the-teacher thing. We were standing there looking as son's work and I was admiring a happy couple across the table looking at their son's work. I was thinking "why can't W and I be a happily married couple like that?" About then the woman handed one of the drawings to the man and said "why don't you take this one to your house." Hahahahaha! Turns out they were a broken marriage too. Things are rarely as they seem!
