To: I’m just worried about screwing up my friendship with you
Me: I don’t know you and you don’t know me, but speaking for myself, after my first marriage failed, I was damaged by the fallout and I realized that when relationships don’t work out, there are always going to be issues that we carry on to future relationships, we them, them us – it is how it is.
My second wife was the complete opposite of my first wife and I thought with that one, I would not make the mistakes I made in my first marriage and I never did, but a whole new range of new issues eventually arose, which were completely different from my first marriage and this time around, my next choice, turned out to be a “gold digger”, with my death, her way to improve her financial position and grab everything we had gathered together, just for herself.
As you can see, she failed with me, but, so far as I am aware, she has managed to knock off a number of men, so far, before and after me…I am a male.
We all get damaged by what happens to us, but that is no reason to quit, we have to take courage in both hands and move on with our lives, keep trying to get it right, because when we do, it makes the whole thing so worth while and that is really all that matters.
We only have one life and it really is not for long enough and we are a long time dead. No point giving up before you at least give it a try, with reservations, lets say, after all, what have you got to lose, which you have not lost before?
Any advice I can offer, just ask here.
