My ex husband and I were in the same wedding party this weekend, he was the best man and I was a bridesmaid. I expected it to be really uncomfortable since we would be around all his football buddies and their wives who I never really fit in with, but I decided to go and hope for the best.
But when the rehearsal dinner was over, I walked outside and found that my car wouldn’t start. It was late, and all the repair shops were closed, so I wasn’t sure what to do, but when I turned around I found my ex standing right there. And even though we haven’t been together for a year, he offered to make arrangements to have my car fixed and then gave me a ride home.
And it might have been the fact that we were doing wedding things all weekend, but when he pulled up to the house we used to share, I invited him to come inside and watch a movie together since I didn’t want to be alone tonight.
I ended up falling asleep and woke up to him carrying me to the bedroom we used to share and when he kissed me on the forehead like he was saying goodbye, I asked him to stay.
And when I was walking down the aisle today and my ex was looking at me the same way he had on our wedding day…
All I could think was that I missed being married to my best friend…
