One of my ex girlfriends is pregnant. Congratulations are due obviously. (You've probably guessed where this is going)
I am lucky enough to have a few ex girlfriends from years ago on Facebook at the moment and have even apologised to two if them for my behaviour back then. The years pass but not ALL the feelings are forgotten. So while I'm happy for my ex, when I see her posts about having a baby, I can't help but remember baby scares we had together etc.
a 'what if' parallel universe kicks in for me.
I've had several baby scares and some have been closer than just scares. These are issues I simply have never dealt with.
But since I am a father these days, thinking of possible children I could have fathered makes for quite a somber affair.
I still have respect for each past girlfriend. But that does also bring old pains too.
