What do you do when your very first love comes around again? We are friends. We have been since we were children. My parents loved him. His parents loved me. I don’t want to change my marriage at all. But what do you do when that love comes back into your life? How do you explain it to your hubby? or wife? whatever the case may be. Oh, gee, Hunny…. Ummm… here is my first true love and I want us all to be friends and hang out and drink beer and watch the NASCAR races? I love my husband. He is wonderful to me. He still makes my heart do flips. He is a strong and good man. He is handsome, too! But would this hurt him if I wanted to be “Sunday afternoon supper” friends again with someone from my past? Hubby and I have been married for 17 years. There is no way things are going to change. But I also don’t want any ill feelings. . It’ll all work out in the end. It always does.

You tell your first love, “It was good seeing you again. I am pleased that you are still a nice person. May your life (with someone else) be enjoyable and satisfying.” You let him walk away and you do not let him jeopardize the good relationship that you have had for 17 years. Moreover, you complement yourself for continuing to be attractive to others, but you use your experience and gifts to cultivate the garden that you already own.
Have a happy day

Thank you. I should have mentioned that he lives 6 hours away and that we might get to see him once a year or so. He is married to but divorcing a cold bitch who left him with 3 girls and a severely autistic boy. I know this for fact. I checked it out. I might get to see him while on a weekend trip with my family and planning a supper get together with many high school friends. I might get to see him if I can talk him into bringing the kids down here for vacation over the summer. I don’t know. I’m still trying to wake up.
