Well no he was just a party pal that I started sleeping with and ended up pregnant by the rest is history.




Fascinating. I met my wife on a rebound from a 5 year relationship. I knew she wasn't my type and was just killing time when she got pregnant. The parallels are quite interesting. I did grow to love her far more than I did when I married her. In fact, sometimes (and I have voiced this to her) I feel life would be a lot easier if I didn't. I could cut my losses and move on as the kids are just about grown. The fact is I do love her greatly. There is much to admire about her. She is a great mother and a very upstanding person. She is organized where I am not, she is practical and down to earth where I am a dreamer, she is very thoughtful of others. She just isn't as affectionate, as sexual, or as philosophically and emotionally deep as I would like. Trying to reconcile these conflicting feelings and needs is starting to wear me out.
