I saw this thread by **commasense **announcing his engagement.
Congratulations, **comma **(can I call you comma?)
I thought as the perfect bookend, I’d announce to all and sundry that as of July 15th I’m officially single again. Not that I haven’t dated or gotten laid at all in the last 8 years by someone other than my wife but … I’ve gotten ahead of myself.
You see, we married way back in the last century. 1999 to be accurate. We lasted about 2 years before things fell apart. And by ‘things falling apart’ I mean, she fucking me over. But that’s neither here nor there.
Since then, I moved back to Maine (from California) and we remained separated all this time. By virtue of she be extremely flighty, and me being … well, extremely flighty too - not to mention us being 3000 miles apart - we never got the i’s crossed or the t’s dotted.
Until now.
Now I can get married again.
Of course, I would never be so stupid ast to give *that *another try, but I could if I wanted to.
Congrats are in order. You will not feel the full benefits of this decision until years later when you realize what you escaped-unless you repeat the error of your ways.
Being married or divorced is not a crime. Maybe it should be. You decide.
