No. He texts me in the morning when he gets to work.

Cringing for you.

Ive known him for almost 20 years, including knowing his parents, siblings and I’ve been to his childhood home. This is not not some random person I spoke to at a conference.

I think covid -and lock down- has people considering what if scenarios. I’m not entertaining abandoning my family, I considering coulda, woulda, shoulda.

DP. He may not be a random, but he’s only texting now because he’s bored and looking for entertainment. Apparently he thinks you’re an easy target, and probably a nice ego stroking to see you’re still hung up on him.

Hmm, maybe the relationship power dynamic has changed. I left him. He pops up every so often and we joke around have an interesting deep conversation and then it fades away again. So up until now it was like he’s never gotten over me but I guess outside factors have weighed in and now I miss him and am considering what could have been.... which includes not living in DC. And the truth is I really do not enjoy living here anymore and we’re committed to the firm.

Time for a beach house and about 9 new hobbies

Ha! Truth. I wonder if there will be a run on beach houses in Rehoboth/Bethany.

You’re terrible. I hope your husband finds out you’re thinking this way and kicks you out of your NW DC Shithole.

No. She meant what she said. Palm Prongs.

I hooked up with an attractive guy at a party in college, but met my now-husband soon after, fell hard, and dropped the first guy.

My husband is handsome and wonderful and we have a happy life together. But... that first guy is still attractive.

And also the co-founder of Twitter.

Don’t worry he still tells his friends about you too. Obviously you all had a connection.

OP, you don't sound smart enough to be a good lawyer.

Isn’t Palm Springs in the desert?

You sound like you would marry a baboon if it lived on a tree nicer than your house. Didn't sell yourself well enough? Awww.
What a bimbo, unbelievable.

He likes knowing that you regret dumping him. It’s a power trip that he can keep you dangling and come and go from your life as he pleases.

OP I can totally relate. Had a Brunch houseparty drink with my ex (university group of friends, we were 4 on the call). He was coming out of his pool in the south of France to join our call, his beautiful wife in background. Good looking And successful 40 yo with a full set of hair.

While my balding husband was fighting our kids in our cramped kitchen..

I had a big what if moment . Comes at regular intervals from «  the one that got away ».

And then, I snap out of it, remember why I dumped him (he is a type A self centered asshole who made me feel like shit way too often). And why my DH is a wonderfully Intellectual and caring partner who chose a less lucrative career because he cares about ethics and giving back to the world. And I have zero doubts that I am happier with him than with big hair douche.
