Part III: Regretting marriage
Memory hadn’t considered how life would be with Rodney. They were high school sweethearts. She thought going with the flow would be essential: stick with him, he’s a good guy, loves her, cares about her, and would do anything to appease her. But now that they’re both older, he is well . . . boring. She reminisces while sifting through wedding photos, shaking her head at their decision’s haste and considering the welcoming mat of divorce. Where would this lead them, though? Divorce is final and Rodney is a huge chunk of her life. He isn’t some man she decided to shack up with – they’ve invested time, love, effort, and work into each other. Rodney is . . . bigger than regret.

3 episodes in, and I can feel the warring and stirring of a mid-life crisis… the rough patch… whatever we call it, it is so relatable. But they’ve made it this far. I think they’ll survive.

Deep trE! Sounds like some reconsideration may be at the helm of the hasty decision that was made. Is the divorce really final in this case? Hmmmm…. 🤷🏽♀️💔🤷🏽♂️

I don’t think so. I think she’s just feeling a bit out of sorts. But we’ll see.

Haha. She’ll probably end up sticking with her man and just complaining about him, instead. 🤣😂😆

It’s not just about the pros and the cons – unless one, some, or all of the cons are mega. A couple should be interactive in positive ways. Jane and I both tried left-hand writing yesterday, and my attempt was neater than my right-handed writing. ✍️ Nothing is simple, unless it is. G:) 💚
Thank you for your words – making me think. Cheers. G
