Blast from the past
Apr. 6th, 2003 10:57 pmWent to see
hawkegirl's play tonight, and ran into a lot of old friends from the SCA that I haven't seen in years. I was surprised to see my first boyfriend on stage! We went out for about 6 months in '91, then he broke up with me and ended up marrying (and later divorcing) another woman. I always wanted to stay friends, but he seemed pretty awkward around me. It's been over 10 years now, and I've wondered what he was up to from time to time. Anyway, I went to say hi after the play (rather nervously), and he seemed honestly happy to see me, even gave me a big hug. We had a quick chat, and promised to catch up more at May Day. I'm so happy; it's not that I expected to stay close with him, but he was a great first boyfriend, and I've always regretted that we couldn't leave things on a better note. It's nice to think that we can be friendly now. Can't wait to meet his new wife, I hope they're happy together. (A little sad that the guy who was 3 years younger than me has now been married twice while I'm still single... sigh.)
