looking for comfort
Sat, 10-02-2004 - 5:59pm
well as of yesterday i am now a single women. me and my bf were having trouble dealing with his soon to be ex-wife and their two children. she has threatened him numerous times that if he stays with me then she will take his children away. being the good father he is, he chose the children and will follow through with the divorce. we decided to remain friends and talk on occassion, maybe start hanging out again as friends after his divorce. my problem is that i want to still be with this man in the future and i feel he wants the same thing. i understand his decision to remain in his kids life and know he made the right decision. i am planning on moving on in my life and furthuring my future. however, i want him to be in my life and do not want to be with another man. we have discussed this and we both do not want to be with anyone else other than each other. we have given each other all of our love and want to hold on to our relationship that we had. this is the man i want to marry and will wait for him even though we dont know what the future may bring for me and him. in my heart i feel that if its meant to be it will naturally happen. we are best friends and cherish each other to stay in one anothers lives. i know moving on is the right thing to do, but how does one continue to be best firends and move on from the man they know is there soulmate?
