    Is that watch a gift from him too? If so, he has good taste.

    On the other hand, the husband spoils me sillier, in ways the ex never discovered, because this time I stuck around longer just to see “What if”.

    There’s a thought for you.

    What makes it worse is that somehow the moments when you realise just how much he spoiled you are also the moments when you can’t remember why you broke up.

    And which of us can cross our hearts and swear we never compare 🙂

    jp: I don’t even know why we’re not supposed to! Compare, that is. It’s only sensible, right?

Here's a bar of chocolate. Now talk to me. :)
