[quote=Anonymous]I already know the answer to this but need somewhere to vent. I’m a happily married woman with wonderful children and I know I am lucky. My husband works very hard and does so much for us. I work too, and we have a happy and upper middle class life.  My ex bf from many years ago still crosses my thoughts every once in a while. I was madly in love with him, he was a great guy, but after several years he ended things. We were young and long distance at that point and I made my share of mistakes in the relationship which contributed to its demise. The breakup was messy and it took me along time to get over it. It’s all ancient history now and it’s many years ago.  Anyway, I recently heard through the grapevine that he has come into a ridiculously massive financial windfall, more money than could ever be spent. I’m talking incredible financial success, hitting the lottery so to speak. It’s thrown me for a loop, even though I know it shouldn’t.  How do I shake this feeling? It’s like a combination of jealousy, questioning what if, bringing up old feelings from a different time. I know money is not everything, I continually try to instill that in my own children. I feel foolish and guilty for even giving it a second thought, I have a wonderful family, we have our health, I wouldn’t trade my children for the world, we have so much. So why am I ruminating this?  Talk some sense into me.[/quote]
