As some of you know I was celebrating the marriage of my son and his beautiful now wife just last week in Barbados. The wedding on the beach was wonderful, and Barbados simply Paradise. However, another totally unexpected romance evolved during my 2 weeks there....that of my ex husband and I.

We fell in love all over again, though he apparently has never felt able to move on completely since we separated, and has never stopped loving me. It was a bolt from the blue for me, and I realised that I too still loved him. We had been together for many years as the old-timers here know, and the ten years we´ve been apart have flown over. We´ve both changed in many ways of course, but talking and spending time together just revealed how close, and in love we still are.

Our break up was devastating for both of us, yet not for reasons of infidelity or other serious issues, we simply grew apart and felt we were moving in different directions. That makes it all sound rather a flippant decision to split, but sometimes the horror stories we all read here are not the only reasons why couples break up.

I don´t know if there are folk here who have experienced a similar type of break up, or if there is any chance they will get back together, but it can and does happen, as I can happily testify.

It´s not going to be easy, we´re not fools, but we have, and always have had. something very special and we are going to give it our best shot.

I´m extremely optimistic. teddybear

I will be deleting my profile here after I´ve read and responded to any responses I may get, and I truly wish you all the best. hug

Now that's fantastic news. I really hope that it works out well for the pair of you.

So sweet it happened at the wedding as well, as two marriages were made again that day.

As they say, absence make the heart grow fonder, and it seems to have worked for you both.


Best wishes for you both, and (this is not meant in a bad way) I hope that you never have the need for a dating site again.

hug

OMG Jan!!!! I am so very happy for you hun hug applause
What a wonderful thing and as I read this, tears of joy came to my eyes...even through the worst of storms that can happen in any relationship, when a couple has spent some time away from each other to reflect and grow, they certainly can make it work again.
Many years after my marriage ended, my ex wanted to try again but in my case, I know it would never have worked out again.
I wish you much happiness Jan...everything happens for a reason teddybear bouquet

Thank you! I´m sure you made the right decision. We were living in different countries and the opportunity never really arose to meet up or consider getting back together seriously. We did very briefly for a year, just a year after our divorce, but it was too soon.

That is beautiful !! Congratulations.

I felt the same about my ex for so many years....sometimes I think I still do. I have her as a facebook friend finally. It's so nice to be in contact...but it's most likely too late. Too much water under the bridge. 25 years has past now. cool
