But we’ve set a date for this summer, and I couldn’t have asked for a better man to spend the next chapter with. I’m finally learning, at this point in my life, what real love actually feels like from the inside.
As for Zack — I’ve heard, through the kids, that he’s dating a much younger woman now, one who orders him around like household staff, makes him jump at her every passing whim, and spends his hard-earned money freely, without a second thought. I suppose, in the end, we all eventually get exactly what we’ve spent a lifetime training other people to give us.
