that was weird (on FB) (nostalgia tour)
in Married Life
just checked my page, and poof! a suggestion that I 'friend' my old highschool/college boyfriend, since several friends are his friends. Seeing his name just shocked me. I have not seen him since 1982.
He was the one I moved to NJ to be with, we were going to get married when we graduated. Two days before I moved there, I got a letter from him saying he'd been seeing someone else while we were living apart, but had broken up with her that day. A few months later, he said he was 'kidding' about the getting married after graduation part, too. Ah, those were the days. I was shattered.
SO SINGS MY SOUL *WHAM!* MY SAVIOR GOD TO THEE *WHAM!* HOW GREAT THOU ART *WHAM!* HOW GREAT THOU ART *WHAM!*
Re: that was weird (on FB) (nostalgia tour)
I decided to break it off entirely after my 21st bday when he gave me a Chicago's Greatest Hits LP double set. I didn't have a stereo, and it was not my favorite band. It WAS his favorite, though, and he had a stereo, so he said I could keep it at his house and listen to it whenever I came over.
I suddenly saw a long vista of years where for every gift I'd get something he wanted, and something in me snapped. Whenever I hear Chicago, he comes to mind.
HAH. I just choked on my spit.
And with that, you just described my "Why did I not dump you in college and drag this relationship well into my mid-twenties" boyfriend.
Exactly.
