Staying married may have long-term benefits. You can elicit much more sympathy from friends over a bad marriage than you ever can from a good divorce. - P. J. O'Rourke

  • Stacy I have been divorced 22 years now, and have had multiple relationships, some long term, and almost got married once. Yet I still got emotional hearing that my ex recently remarried. It's not that I still love him, but there was still a sense of loss at the news. It's strange, but it feels more permanent now that he's remarried, even though it's been 22 years. It was fleeting, but real none the less. Has anyone else ever experienced this? 10 years ago   *   5 replies

    • Mr. Mag 357 Maybe not the time span but certainly when you know that the part of their heart you'd like to claim ownership of belongs to someone else now, yeah that affects you. You're not crazy for feeling like a star fell out the sky. 10 years ago
      • Stacy Yes, this sums it up perfectly! Nice to know i'm not the only one :) Thanks Mr. Mag! 10 years ago
    • Julie Anne I was married to someone when I was very young (who is also remarried with children now). That young love was crazy passionate! I look back now, and kind-of always have, and I'm truly honestly happy for him. We didn't make it, and he was a good guy, and now he has someone who can give him the attention he needs. I hope you can find piece...letting go will never mean you don't still care. Best wishes! 10 years ago
      • Stacy Thanks Julie Anne. I do think i'm also really happy for him. I'm glad he's found someone better for him than I was :) Cheers! 10 years ago
