Rejection Followup
Hi.
Sorry about your cheating husband. A few girlfriends did that to me, and it was as though they took a garden pick and raked it across my stomach. Not very pleasant.
Best of luck to you too. But you know, we all have issues. I’m no exception.
I don’t see well, and that has its own poignant social ramifications, which I will spare you here. My [first love], who I would have married in a minute, decided a year after we graduated from high school that she preferred women to men. And she wasn’t kidding. Her and her girlfriend have lived together now for 25 years – they connected right after she and I broke up. The girl I wanted to marry and have a family with all through school, is now growing old with a WOMAN in her bed, not me. But hey. Life’s been hard on us all. You know?
Anyway, hold on to the belief that someone is out there for you. Though I can’t prove this conclusively, it helps to believe that there’s at least one someone for everyone, because life is a pretty lonely place when living it alone. And we’re not supposed to be alone! It just took me 15 years as a workaholic to realize that. Now, my career is, finding Her, and writing about my journey to her. Don’t know if I’ll ever publish, but I have hundreds of pages of hopes and insights along with fears and sorrows, which I hope will help others on this same quest. Perhaps one day, you’ll see one of my books in your local bookshop.
But thanks for looking me over, and I wish you well in your new home. Take care, and I hope you find your guy when it’s right for you.
Perhaps, in the next life, we’ll meet again.
