The Man I Married

[Luna]

I want to tell you all about the man I married.

This guy... Where do you start? Loyalty. Honor. Those are, if anything, the things that run deepest in him. When he gives his word, he keeps it. When he sees a thing that should be done, he does it, not because he expects anything, but because it should be done.

Maybe he wasn't the most romantic guy on the planet, but he tried. He wasn't a sending flowers kind of guy... but he knew lilacs were my favorite, so, when we bought our home, the first piece of landscaping was putting in a lilac for me.

I don't need to be his whole world. Nobody needs that kind of pressure. But, having US be the center of both of our worlds, that works out just fine. WE come first, no matter what, that's all that really matters. We have room for ourselves, sure, but nothing that is for me, nothing that's for him, can mess up US. We support each other, he never tears me down, or makes me feel less than I am.

He's not perfect, but he's got my back.  He's my best friend, my love, and I hate the thought of living without him.

So, that's the man I married.


I hope I meet him, someday.

After the last sentence i had to reread it.
Woah.
I liked it.

Thanks.  I was in a mood after dealing with my soon to be ex on the phone about stuff.

[Nephew Twiddleton]

Yeah, that last sentence makes the whole thing.

[Luna]

I still keep choking on the rage-filled spitefest that is GOING to hit, sooner or later.   

So, I tried coming at it sideways.

Just thank whatever powers the be that you believe in every single day you don't have kids!!!

It will get better.  At some point you finally realize you just don't give a flying fuck anymore.  That unfortunately comes long after the divorce is final and around the same time you see him somewhere looking like complete shit, bald, stinky and gross. And you realize that there must have been something in the water where you met, dated and married him at for you to have ever seen anything in him.

Then you will find yourself laughing so hard you are crying and the only thing you can do is point at him and laugh hysterically as you walk away.

[Luna]

I can't do that, Khara.

Am I glad I'm not dragging kids through a messy divorce?  Absolutely.  Am I glad that kids aren't going without because I'm broke?  Definately.  Am I glad I'm never going to have to explain WHY to a kid, without tapdancing around slurring the other parent?  Oh, yeah.

Glad I donr have kids?  No.

Suu and Richter have seen me around kids.  I love them, always have.  I always wanted kids of my own, and I think I would've been a pretty good mom.  Something I will never forgive the NYEX for is wasting enough of my life that it's now unlikely I'll have them.

That's the one thing about this that can still bring me to tears.

Him, I'm over.  If he came back tonight begging me to take him back, I don't know if I'd laugh or slap him.  Maybe both.  No way in hell, I would never be able to trust him again.

Shit, I don't know if I'll be able to trust ANYBODY again, after this.  But I'm not sad about that.  Angry, yes, but not sad.  I'll give dating another try, if I can remember how that goes, maybe I'll get serious about it...  maybe.

But it's the kids thing that hurts.

Let me rephrase - thank god you don't have kids with him.  You can still have kids sweetie.  In fact now, you can pick and choose what you want in a sperm donor

Also, I have three, barely used that I will happily rent or lease with an option......

Tempting offer, that.   

Still possible, yes.. but not likely, at this point.

At least I get to play Aunt Luna to a range of SCA kids.

I have a very good friend who is my age and has a 3 year old.  She decided she wanted a baby and she worked it out with a mutual friend of ours who provided her with the swimmers.  It doesn't cost as much as you would think and she has a gorgeous daughter with someone she is very good friends with.  Keep the faith, it is always a possibility.....

I'll keep that in mind, if the finances sort themselves out in the near future.
