Good old Facebook memories today showed me the selfie I took of my husband and I looking all HAPPY on a date night at one of our favorite restaurants 3 years ago. I remember being happy together that night. We loved to go there to eat outside on their deck. We were doing Covid19 dinning before it was a thing.
This picture and that date night was just days before the CW made contact on LinkedIn about meeting for dinner while she was in town. All the lies started then.
This one picture I studied often after I put together the timeline of their affair. I searched within it for the answers to so many questions. Mainly how did he let go of my hand so easily and grasp hers?
I wondered also if the CW saw this picture when I posted it because at that point I thought they were Facebook friends from college. Not exes. Did she see him and say to herself I want him back? I should message him to meet? My happiness was what she deserved? Reclaim what was once hers? Did this picture spur her on to make contact with him? Just thoughts I had back then. I will never know.
The picture really never gave me any answers. Just more questions.
Today this picture reminds me that things can change in a blink of an eye. I can’t control the future. Only my actions and reactions. Also that if he ever let’s go of my hand again he will never be given the chance to hold it again.
No tears today. Just been lost in thoughts.
Here’s to healing!
Here’s to moving forward!
Here’s to Living again!

It makes your heart miss a beat when you see a photo like that and remember how happy you were at that time time … but also so ‘innocent’ and deceived.

I look at this picture and say look how naive I was to think just because we were happy we were untouchable from betrayal.
My innocence is lost.

Any picture I see from those days, whether she’s in them or not, drives me crazy. I can’t look at pictures of just my kids when they were younger. It’s sad and maddening. It just feels like everything is a lie.
