You know what's weird? I never truly fell in love with my ex husband either. It was all on his side, well allegedly because he never truly loved me, not in a normal, healthy way. I just wanted to get married so badly and he was there, asking me, so I said yes. I was 47 years old, never married before. I felt I should be married. What a mistake that was, but I've learned from it. I will never settle for just good enough ever again. I'd rather be alone than settle for less than what I truly want.
