I think of you often, and wonder what I would have done, if anything, if I heard from an ex at the cusp of my “relationship” with your current boyfriend. He’s so charming and sensitive and deep, and has told you many-a-story of his lunatic, abusive ex-wife whose primary goal is to steal his daughter and destroy his life. She sounds like a MONSTER. Obviously, she isn’t capable of truth, so reading something like this shouldn’t hold even an ounce of weight in your whirlwind romance. Or should it??

I’ve started this post no fewer than 10 times, not to mention the times I’ve “written it” in my head in the last 24+ hours. It all seems so. . . empty.
