[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I did not marry the man I loved with all my heart and soul, because timing.

Decades on, I see timing was just an excuse for fear, and cost me the chance to live life with my soulmate.[/quote]

Is he married now?[/quote]
He may be separated. Neither of us have social media, but he’s accepted a professorship distant from his home and I hear his wife hasn’t moved. She has a serious career, so they may be doing LD. I have been separated for years. I feel like he would find me if he were meaningfully single.

To the snickers lady: Ahahaha, you are my hero[/quote]

I found this one of the hardest regrets to read. I think we need a spinoff thread where everyone convinces you to reach out. [/quote]

What if he is not separated, though? Or only kind of testing the waters. That would be so awful. He is one that would never, ever cheat, nor would I. I look for him in airports 😬 [/quote]

DH here:  NGL, “I look for him in airports” got me right in the feels.  PP: I kind of know what this feels like, I’d say reach out, the worst can say is “still taken” and take it from me you don’t want to wonder “what if” for decades.  [/quote]
I agree. This is romantic yet sad at the same time.
I wish I had married "the other guy," and I think of him often.

OP of this part of the thread: What is the worst that can happen? He says "nice to hear from you, hope all is well, I am still married to my wife" or he doesn't answer. Who knows what the best case could be. If the answer isn't what you want, will you be more crushed? In 5 years, will not reaching out be another big regret?

Please do it and come back to report!  Let us live vicariously through you![b] Do it for DCUM![/b][/quote]

Love this![/quote]
