To be clear I am in a wonderful relationship. Still, there is one individual I think of - fleetingly - during the holidays. Years ago, back during a wildly manic and adventurous year, I had a thing with a fellow I wanted at the time to be more serious. We spent a pretty intense holiday that year. When I go through my address book each year to compile my greeting card list I come across the entry for him. I will wonder then what he is now up to. I maintain contact with his sister and never once has he come up in conversation. At times, I wish she would. It matters to me that he have his life together and is happy.
