The new book that I started is called,
Love The One Your With. It is about a woman named Ellen who is a newly wed to her husband Andy. She is facing the dilemma of recently seeing her long time ex lover, Leo whom she still has feelings for. She doesn't quite know what to do about her feelings for him. What really intrigues me about this book is how she chose her husband over her ex lover. She starts to feel like everything is sort of routine with her husband and she doesn't quite feel happy. She remembers that with Leo, everything feels spontaneous and and passionate, and she is frustrated with the fact that she doesn't feel that way with her husband. She learns that it is possible to love two people at once, and even though you may love them both, you should chose the one your with now because there is a reason that the other didn't make it to your future. "There are things I considered saying in an enclosed note.
Thanks you...I'm sorry...I'll always love you. They were all true-and still are-but were better left unsaid, just as I decided never to confess to Andy how close I came to losing everything. Instead, I hold that day deep within myself, as a reminder that love is the sum of our choices, the strength of our commitments, the ties that bind us together. "
I relate this to myself because I was recently in a similar situation, although I didn't love the one I was with. I made the opposite choice of Ellen and gave my ex love another try. With me, there was never a choice, it wasn't who did I love more. It was obvious who I wanted to be with, the tough part was actually breaking it off with the one that I was with. I believe that if you love something and you let it go, it will come back to you, and if it doesn't, then it was never really yours to begin with.
