I’ve been in a relationship for 7 years, married for 4 years.
But lately, I often think of the guy I almost got together with before my husband. people say there’s no such thing as the right person, wrong timing. But in our case, it really feels that way. we chatted recently and I realized we feel the same regret over not getting the chance to try.
I feel like we will always wonder what it would have been like if we had gotten together. with my husband now, increasingly our differences are causing distance and friction. we’ve talked things out and we are seeing how it goes. But sometimes I feel like it’s harder and harder to imagine a future with him.
We’ve moved out to stay on our own since marriage but I always feel like I have to pick up after him and remind him to do his share in managing the household. I’m so tired of it but not to the extent of divorce yet.
Sometimes I wish I could turn back time and choose differently.
