Today Richard and I went for Breakfast.
We are having so much fun together alone!!! ;) I asked him "how do you think your parents sat at the Restaurant and talked and drank coffee for hours"? (cuz they did) He said "I don't know, they did though and talked and talked and talked."
So we were wondering What did they talk about. Anyway.... this conversation went weird - "I guess I didn't know my Dad at all." He said. I responded "I guess I didn't know mine either. I'm still wondering why they lived apart for decades." Richard said "They just lived separate lives. He lived two lives. He liked being away from home and Your Mom just let it happen that way."
Isn't it weird that we don't know our parents? Who they were when they were young? who they were before they were married. What they loved, talked about, believed in? I made the comment that "I seemed to be more bothered by this now than I was when I was in the middle of it." Richard said that "now you are them, you've watched your kids be them, (really ayris was your mom and it wasn't alright with her!) And now you want to be YOU, You want to be in love, be a couple, have fun and Be happy". He is right. I DO.
