Feeling Good

[mlerules]

So, it's just about the 33rd anniversary of my wedding. We're no longer together, but still friends. In fact, when I reminded him the date and pointed out how pleased I am we're still friends, he agreed and said "You're still one of my most valued friends." This makes me feel happy, and pleased, and as if I've done something right in how I've lived my life.

That's beautiful. I agree! I feel content when I consider that each of my previous relationships are still friends -- and in touch -- even though M and I have been together for over 25 years!

Good for you, on both counts (still friends w/ex's and 25 years together w/M)! I'm still friends with nearly all my ex's. One's not so good about keeping in touch w/folks, but many of his friends from way back (it ended about 20 years ago) have stayed friends with me, so that worked out well.
