A Sad Story
I can't believe how long it's been since I've written a post. I was so busy with wedding plans, honeymoon, etc, but I guess now I have plenty of stories to tell.
I'll start out one I just heard about a couple of days ago...
Well a couple of years ago I met this boy at work. We became good friends and talked constantly at work. We both had significant others but had a great time chatting away about pointless things.
As it turned out we were both having problems in our respective relationships. And so at the time we were there for each other and were able to discuss our issues. He was going through a lot. His mother had passed away and of course this can always cause problems in any relationship. but in his case his woman was (is?) PSYCHOTIC...I was almost scared that she would come after me with a gun.
Anyway as it turned out, we both became single at one point and I decided it best not to get involved as we both had plenty of stuff to deal with. We both had just come out of long relationships and not to mention that he was still living with his (ex)girlfriend.
So needless to say nothing happened between us and he got engaged to that same [psychotic] chick and was to be married in May and as you may have read I got married in August. He still works at the same place, as do I, so if we see each other in the hallways we give each other a pleasant nod. We have both been very busy in our own lives but he was nice enough to invite me to his wedding. I didn't invite him to mine, I didn't think it was appropriate. He even showed me pictures of his honeymoon.
Back to the point, while on my honeymoon I was using the internet and he IMed me out of the blue. He told me that he had some interesting stuff to tell me... so a couple of days ago when I got back I went to visit him as I do sporadically. When I got there he showed me his left hand. It was bare and he joked "yeah, we're getting a divorce." My first reaction was the valleygirl-esque "Shut UP!"...and he often jests, but he was serious. And it saddened me to hear that. He told me that he was so angry that she didn't decide that months ago, BEFORE they got married. And now if she were to change her mind, he doesn't want to hear it, because she could easily change it again. There wasn't much I could say to him. So I didn't.
But I keep thinking about it. And I hope that he can go on with his life and find someone truly special, just as I have.
