I figured he didn't go after any woman at church because his wife had only been gone a year, and many of them were her friends. I am a challenge for him because, as a pastor, he's used to being on a pedestal. To me, he isn't anything special or deserving of my adoration. I will admit to you that I am still thinking of my ex. We were divorced in 2016, but for the next 6 years, he tried to reunite with me. I dated other men and told him if he could be sober for 2 years, I would honestly consider it. But in 2022, he left in the most cowardly way, and then I found out he had a girlfriend. He didn't have the consideration or integrity to discuss it with me. Our kids won't speak to him because he lied so much about it. Then went to jail for 6 months. Blah Blah Blah

Anyway, I loved that guy! I am stuck with all the memories, pictures, videos, and such. I have a ton of his stuff in my garage. I can't get rid of him and completely let go. Jon knows nothing of this because he never asks about my ex or marriage. He doesn't know much of anything about me! That's a huge red flag.

As far as languages go, I got the Quick Learn Spanish tapes 6 years ago, and they're still in the original unopened box. Enough said!

That sounds like a sad commentary on your relationships. Were you only married once? 16 or 60 it is good to realize things that are personality set backs. We will never be perfect, Brian!
