Dating

Also, I was doing this stuff that @bclemms is doing. That’s how I ended up married. Was traveling in South America with my then best friend & my ex husband was a friend of her family (she was from South America too which is what took us there). He had just gotten back after living in London for 3 years. We would meet up on trips, visit each other, etc. stupid in lust and didn’t want to be apart. It likely would have died a natural death over time due to distance under normal circumstances but then my dad passed away unexpectedly and not long after, we decided getting married was a good idea 🤦🏻‍♀️

Then, once we settled into regular married life in the same house and country, all the novelty of this foreign person wore off & you discover people are the same everywhere & we ended up with the same problems every couple has & likely would have broken up before marrying if we had been able to date while living separately in the same city and doing normal dating in lieu of honeymoon trips.

When I judge y’all, just know that I was once y’all. I just know better now.
