She hoped and prayed that there wasn't an afterlife. Then she realised there was a contradiction involved here and merely hoped that there wasn't an afterlife.

An airing of laundry · 18 October 06

I am involved with a married man. He is separated, although we met before that was the case.

He is a good man. A man who has given away much of his life, and years of his own dreams to the dreams of others. I am not ashamed of our love, it is not wrong. Our love is about nurturing and sharing, seeking to build on our dreams together.

Many lives have been affected. Life is about change; not always easy, but always better than stagnation. It is not better to make a sacrifice of a man, to deny all that he has to give when he is whole, happy and fulfilled.

Love is not a chain, a yoke, a club. I do not possess him or hold him down. We set each other free.

  1. love will out, and it’s never easy or uncomplicated

    i trust you, i trust your judgement, but then i love you too

  3. Nicely worded, and well realized. Know that you aren’t the only one to stand up and challenge for love.

  4. Well I’m shocked. You’d never catch ME getting involved with a married person. Oh, wait :-)

  5. Well said, Sarah,

    I can understand what you mean. One of the women I love is married, and one of the things I did was to help her save her marriage, because I love her. Letting her go was one of the hardest choices I’ve ever had to make, but it was the right thing to do for both of us. I’m still in touch with her and her family.

    One other thing I’d add about love—it doesn’t have limits…loving one person doesn’t detract, lessen or weaken your love for any other person in your life. I guess that was the thing Yoon never could figure out.

  6. And what for trust?

  7. I hope everything works out for the best for everyone.

    As for your answer to my question…

    Thanks for the laugh!
    :)

  8. The only thing I don’t trust him to do is to remember to value his own happiness too.

  9. Congratulations, Sarah!

    But to be honest, I would suggest to keep your hands off married men. Because even if they tell you, they’ll never leave the save nest of their home. And then there’s this family situation… are kids involved?!

    And even if he decides to leave this all behind himself, what will be later?

    I’ve seen it several times and after 6 months they all ran back home…

    Anyway, I really wish you that he’s not one of that kind of men, but be careful to whom you give your heart away. You have just one! ;o)

    All the best!!
