before marrying my xh....I dated two people in college...both were serious relationships. One was the guy I dated right before I went off to the med center...he was in law school/mba school and we had a great relationship. But alas, I moved 3 hours away to finish my education and he had to stay to finish his. I then graduated, and we broke up/drifted apart. Then I date my second college bf..one year, then one year later darth. My first college bf and I were together for almost 3.5 years. I have not posted about my personal life as it's been outta control busy...i am off to med. convention and made decision to bring my ds..,it's darth's weekend, but he is in full cake mode and is more than happy to send ds off with me for his custody time...FINE WITH ME <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> But something good and to me, yea a bit scary has happened. Like a bolt outta blue, I received a call from cbnumero 1 about 2 weeks ago. He is living in TN, about 4 hrs. from me. he had run into a longtime friend of mine at a restaurant who told him how close I was...and that "hey J, did you know Peach is single now?" She said he got a strange look on his face, and almost teared up. He had divorced two years ago also. HIs W had an Emotional affair with a coworker in TN. He got my phone number from my longtime friend. He called and well...what can I say? We are dating once more. But he doesn't want to mess anything up at all. He wants the biggie C...a committed relationship and wants to remarry. He is PLAINLY CLEAR ABOUT THAT. His moral compass is as firm and resolute as ever. He just made partner at one of the largest law firms in the south...and is so still the unaffected person despite his successes. I am probably going back up there next weekend. And he asked me last night to attend his legal convention with the other partners and their wives in FL this fall. He has discussed his possibility of moving and having a remote office in atlanta as his business is done mainly online and by phone. I'd sure like to see Darth try to legally pass something by this guy! AND IF THERE'S EVER A MAN TO PUT DARTH IN HIS PLACE...J IS IT. J's parents are thrilled we are speaking and seeing each other again as I really liked them always. Our friends, mutual, are happy too. My family is happy about it. It is however a bit scary to me too...I didn't think happiness would hit me this fast or this hard. Yea, I think and am thinking each step thru. J is a real keeper though...and he thinks the same of me and my ds. He also is wanting really bad to have a family of his own...and said that my ds is adorable and he would love to meet him soon..he spoke to him twice already. I am a bit nervous. I didn't think it would take such little time...so I am gonna be cautious...I am gonna sit back an take it maybe slower than he wants to. But this guy was to me, the one 13 years ago and circumstances were not in our favor. So...wish me luck.

I am excited for you and hope it works out.
Maybe you should introduce him to MB concepts (if you haven't already done so) or attend an MB weekend.

I'm happy for you Peach! It wasn't long ago where things were looking particularly bleak for you. It goes to show you things can change fairly quickly sometimes.

That's wonderful news. Be cautious and watch for red flags.
I've read about alot of people reconnecting with old boyfriends/gfs after their divorces and I think it's awesome if it's the right situation.

Very cool Peachy <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
One of my closets g/f is currently re-dating an old boyfriend from over 15 years ago after her husband passed away 3 years ago.
She said that when they saw each other again, it was just like it once was.
Eyes open, be on the alert b/c these types of re-kindled relationships can accelerate pretty fast. Just remember alot has happened in the past 13 years and you guys are not the same people you were when you dated before.
Most importantly....HAVE FUN!

I think it is awesome! Believe me, second marriages can be the best relationship you ever had. My DH is the most wonderful man I've ever known. We've had our ups and downs, but, I would never have known him except for the lying cheating wife-beating first! I hope everything stays roses!

things are goin good! very very good. I will be going not this weekend, but the following to TN to visit...and he is definitely the RIGHT man for the job...we talk probably five or six x a day. the four hr. distance is a bit daunting, but we're determined not to mess this up...as we dated for 3.5, almost 4 years in college and only broke up b/c he went to law school/mba and i went off to med center...it was a timing issue.
but timing is GREAT NOW:) yea, I am happy!
