Completely off topic!
Hey there everyone. I have something I wanted to share that is completely off the weight loss topic.
I have been married to my hubby for almost 7 years. He is wonderful. He is my best friend. I could never imagine being without him. So you are asking, why is she babbling about her hubby? Well, I wanted to make sure you know how I feel about him before moving on.
A few weeks ago, I got an email from a boyfriend I had when I was around 20 years old ( I am 35 now). We dated for a long, long time. He was the type who never really opened up about how he felt about me. I knew he liked me, but he was never the type to say I love you. Anyway, after a long time, I got to the point where I started to question how he felt, because the relationship wasn't really moving forward ( you know, getting more serious). So I had decided to break up with him.
Well, when I did, he decided to spill his guts and tell me he loved me. He had recently bought a house and told me he bought it so we could move in together and so on. Needless to say, it was a HUGE shock to me. In the end, I said goodbye to him and moved on. I was a bit freaked out that he said nothing about caring about me so much and then did when I was breaking up. I questioned his sincerity.
So, a few weeks ago, he emailed me. Evidently he found me through a school website. He apologized for how he did not tell me he cared about me sooner. He told me that after I broke up with him, he was crushed. He did not date anyone for 2 years. He is 38 years old now and has never gotten married. He said he thinks about me all of the time. He wished he had told me sooner that he loved me and that we would have gotten married. Evidently he was going to ask me to marry him on New Years Eve 9 ( we broke up probably in Oct/Nov).
Anyway, the point to all of this is it has brought up a lot of memories. Makes me realize even more how important it is to tell people you love that you love them. I would never , ever jeopardize my relationship with my husband. Like I said before, I love him with all of my heart. I am just shocked that the old boyfriend has felt this way, and guess I needed to get my feelings off of my chest.
Thanks for listening!
