Hmmmm...good post. Listening to and trusting in and acting on my gut instinct....I have learned; looking back; that if I had, life would have been different - so now I do; and life is. It is right. Yes, there are the flutterbies, but it really isn't the frantic "I need" craziness; it is a laid back, relaxed, see you at the end of the day, laughter and exploration and passion....a connection on a different level that is hard to explain and very private and personal. The difference? Perhaps the time taken and the patience involved in really getting to know one another and the ability to communicate that we have - it is real.
The "wrong" relationship - I knew and was in denial, I know and have moved on - it is the past, where is belongs. Did I learn? Hell yeah....alot about others; and more about myself. The reality is, regardless of the unhealthiness and craziness of the past, when you have children together, there is always that connection on some level - so it is best to put it all where it belongs, for your own sanity.
