Hi deja,
You’re always so considerate when posting to others. Thank you for stopping by.

After I was reading that post, I was immediately reminded of a wedding that I went to. Ex and I were talking to an older couple at the wedding who were friends of the grooms parents. They were complete strangers to us. My ex was always mr chatty, so he struck up a conversation. As usual, the topic of money came up and my ex put his hands over my ears so he could talk to this random stranger about how wealthy some of the girls he dated were and how famous their dads were.

Ok..... talk about being made to feel 3 inches tall. It hurt me, but I was used to it, so I let it go. You could see in our friends wedding pictures that I did not have a happy face when they managed to catch me in a candid group shot. My ex told me I basically ruined their photos. This was one month before I got the baby ultimatum so things were pretty much sliding downhill af that point.

Anywayyyyyyy.... the good news is, i thank god every day I’m not married to him. That’s the gift!!

So Valentine’s Day was uneventful. No sadness or loss or anything. It was a rainy day so I made myself a giant bowl of instant ramen for dinner. Ohhh, but not the 25 cent kind..... the 2 dollar “official and authentic” instant ramen.. (ooooohhhh fancy.) I even added an egg to it, because it was a special occasion and I’m worth it. Ha!

Hope you all managed to enjoy the day. even though it is a commercial holiday, I hope each of you managed to take a time out and reflect on the love you do have in your life. All the best to ya!
