Update to Right Guy, Wrong Timing

Well, being as I was feeling a little better today, I went out for Father's Day brunch with my parents and my older brother, during which time my mom told me that the subject of last night's blog did ask about me at the party and has now joined the ranks of those who hate my ex, but unfortunately, he has recently married. Oh well; nothing ventured, nothing gained. At least now I know that it will never be possible, though now I find myself a little miffed that I wasted so much time with the wrong person. I try not to think of it in terms of time wasted though, but rather as time spent learning valuable lessons and raising my children. They are now at an age where they can begin to understand why things like divorce happen (hopefully at least a little bit) and maybe as we traverse the world of dating and boyfriends (or girlfriends in my son's case when he gets a little bit older), we can sit back and laugh at our foibles and guiltily consume way too much ice cream and chocolate trying to make ourselves feel better (followed by hours in the gym trying to burn it off). I will say this much though: seize potential rather than let it pass you by.
