4tootsie Posted September 28, 2004 Share Posted September 28, 2004 [color=darkred][/color] Hi I think I am going crazy. I went back home 3000 miles to spend sometime with my mother who has been coming down with Alzheimer’s, she just turned 84. I have been involved in a marriage of 19 years and my oldest just left for college and the second is leaving next year. My upbringing was relegious and I grew up in an alcoholic family of 6 and I mean a really wacked childhood you would not believe it. Anyway I met with an old old friend who was my best friend and helped me through the worst times. I really loved him as my buddy. When we meet I was smitten and I could tell he was too. I'm in love with him and I not sure what to do. He is single now and I am sure that when my youngest leaves my husband and I will be over with he ignores me and puts me down alot of the time. He is a good man but he doesn't love me in the way I need to be loved. I am afraid if I let my old love go I'll be alone for the rest of my life. I can't explain but since I've been home my old boyfriend and I have spoke on the phone and we can't believe how much we have missed each other and what to do about it.- I need a shoulder to cry on.

Splatty Posted September 29, 2004 Share Posted September 29, 2004 Make sure of your decision, it is a very tough one. When your life isn't perfect there is a tendency to think that the grass is greener on the other side of the fence. I just don't want you to dump your marrage and then realize that it was a mistake. If your feelings for this friend are true then perhaps the grass is greener. I wish you the best of luck in your decision. Link to post Share on other sites
Haunani Posted September 29, 2004 Share Posted September 29, 2004 you will always be thinking of the *what if's*....... all I know is that when I had the chance to be with my *love of my life*old flame after being together with my OS for 5 years, of course, all I thought was that it would be so much better........everything negative about my spouse came full head, and I had to decide, I decided to stay, and I still think about the *what if's* to this day........23 years later.
