And it’s not even national (or international) de-lurking day or anything. I’ve de-lurked before, but usually to bloggers that are complete strangers to me, who live in the US or someplace else in my hometown who I know I’ll probably never meet.
Today was personal. I actually know the woman and see her regularly, though we’re not close or don’t hang out. But we’re kind to each other when we do see each other. She was wondering about her relationship, just general questions, nothing earth-shattering or anything. The part that made me want to comment was when she was wondering if she’s the only one who’s only ever had one relationship in her lifetime and have it turn into something long term.
Nope. She’s not alone. That’s happened to me. I have no regrets. So, I de-lurked to let her know that she’s not alone and that’s she’s in no way abnormal or bizarre. There’s no shame in one relationship. It’s rare these days, but not impossible.
All the best to you, my dear
