had a thing w a married man, and it was simple, and what i needed after 30 yrs of mostly boring marriage.
fell in love w a man just in time for him to be dx'd w als.
have a thing online that's likely never going to happen in meatspace, but it's a warm friendship and goofy fun. and it helps to have the perspective of a man my age, cuz i have questions.

i've had the cupid's flaming arrow kind of love in my lifetime. and i've had grand good times. and my marriage was a success, even if it ended.
so yeah, i hope that's not over.
but it's been my motto in life that i have more regrets for the things i didnt do than the things i did, and i'm done w that.
