I'm wondering how someone who goes around wearing a wedding ring succeeded in the dating pool. Normally a wedding ring sends a flashing "Do Not Enter" message - except to those looking for flings with married people.

I can't imagine anything that would signal more clearly that life goes on and joy can follow tragedy than your having a much wanted child.

I'm not suffering from some division of personality.

You can't get a guarantee from everyone who appears in personal photographs that they will forever remain warm presences in one's life or sweet memories.

I have this wonderful capacity just to walk away from my mistakes and not dwell on them.

It is a mystery why people think they need to act as their friends' dietitian, nonetheless it's common.

I'm certainly not suggesting legalization of polyamory. But it's also unfairly judgmental of you to compare such relationships to the criminal acts of bestiality or child sexual abuse.
