I bumped into my gorgeous? Ex husband in the supermarket and he asked me what I missed most from our marriage and I said 'a man hug'.

As we parted he hugged me. I remember looking over his shoulder during the embrace just wishing he would let go. It did nothing for me but the man hug is still what I miss the most.

Someone to talk to. I don't mean literally - I've got lots of friends and lovers - I mean someone to talk to on that deeper level.

My ex was actually a lawyer and a feminist(in denial feminist)so she was heinously self-interested and every conversation was actually more of a play for "hand" in the relationship(which made it easier for me to leave her), but normally the best thing for me about a healthy and loving relationship is having someone you can open up to.

After 33yrs of marriage I feel my soul-mate/husband used my weakness's to his advantage which is why I'm here and he's there but every time I see him he looks far from happy.

So we all plod on me with my hot water bottle to warm my feet and him with his very full but not particularly meaningful life.

doh

What do I miss most?

...the intimacy, the closeness, the honesty....just being comfortable in each other's company.....the warmth....the complete joy of sharing one's innermost feelings and thoughts.

...I miss the feeling of being able to "let go".....sharing without restraint.

I miss the security of a second income. I miss having a built-in date to go out with. But it wasn't a great marriage, we weren't kindred spirits and I'm pretty much a loner anyway. Never regretted leaving, put it that way.

Rain, sounds like there's still a door open there?

Oh no Viv there isn't at all. He's marrying next year after our being apart for ten years. He's still cheating on this one.

My last employer said he still looks like a school boy. Blonde and fit but I feel that our marriage was a farce. I'm finding out even more with time.

very mad handshake

I guess you could say that after giving someone a second chance and wasting 33yrs.

I'm happy now. I've made up for those 33yrs, travelled loads and met some lovely people.

cheers

Mainly the so called "second chance" is a mistake.
Its like restoring a cracked mirror,to its original state.

Time spent together was never wasted, I feel that even about my marriage and it was pretty much a non-event. We made each other different people (yup, all his fault I'm the woman I am) laugh and learned from each other. And I like our kid!

Be happy you had, and were central to, the best years of his life, that you had good times and that his commitment problems, which sound serious, are now another woman's heartache. You are wise, good-looking, and free of an emotionally immature charmer, YAY! applause peace bouquet

His hairy chest, arms and legs! smitten smitten smitten

Before alcohol wrecked our marriage and his body, he had a very good physique love

I used to get sooooo turned on just by the sight of his bodily hair that I'd just stop whatever we were doing and had my way with him devil

Sweet words Viv. laugh I'll try to see it that way and in fact I pretty much do. I definitely don't dwell on it but sometimes these comments bring up those strange memories and thoughts. No problem at all.

I'm sure you're right. But I was young with two small children and no mother or father around. By the time our children grew up we were running a business together so even more ties.

I'm ok with my lot and reasonably ok with my memories... well some of them.
