i’ve gone and done it. slipped and fell. let down all the defenses and admitted to him ~ and to myself ~ that i am in love. my confession was abrupt, unexpected and ill-timed ~ or maybe ideally. he was sitting on a plane. only minutes to share before the flight attendant’s insistence that all electronic [...]

i broke a rule i hold firm. crossed a line i didn’t even realize i was toeing. it was awkward at first. uncomfortable and uncertain footing in a new place that redefined things. i instantly regretted and wished it back, my common sense screaming at me to understand the potential repercussions. i vowed to stop [...]

i have never been the “bitch ex-wife”. i bend over backwards to ensure my daughter sees a positive relationship between her parents and i like to think that in many ways so my does my ex-husband. he’s a good dad. a good person. we’re complete opposites and there are plenty of things about him that [...]
