Oh, Ossylass that is really sad........ but it just goes to show that you should make the most of every single day.
You must miss your man dreadfully. I will remember that when I am moaning about mine......well, I'll try to.

Sometimes being married makes people feel 'trapped'.Like they can't do anything by themselves or be who they really are.
I have known a few that feel because they are married they can't get with someone else-n that makes them want to even more,although if they werent married they wouldn't even think about it.
Does that make any sense?

Brought a tear to my eyes reading this Ossylass. At least Len got his wish

I wouldn't want to be with anyone else.....there is always an element of the 'grass is greener'...but what makes the grass greener......? it's the manure.
every relationship has a bit of manure in it......you just have to remember the reasons why you got together in the first place.

Age old saying ..... Grass maybe greener on the other side, but it still needs mowing.

Not really.

If you're married and you're after going with someone else that means you're not happy in your relationship with your husband/wife.

Surely it wouldn't make a difference if you were boyfriend/girlfriend.

If you were in a happy relationship you wouldn't be after someone else, married or not.

Sometimes I think people fall in love(or lust) with what they think someone is like...and the reality can be very far from that. Then you've got trouble.
