It is possible for your ex, your boyfriend or girlfriend, or your husband or wife, to no longer be your type.

Some of us were brought into this troubled world primarily or only to increase our fathers’ chances of not being left by our mothers, or vice versa.

The current girlfriend, boyfriend, wife, or husband is often an utterly unsuccessful attempt to stop missing or loving the previous one.

Some people are very happy despite their ex’s absence; some, because of it.

Oftentimes someone leaves their partner who is comparable to the sun for someone else who is comparable to a spark.

Some people each left their spouse or lover because he or she was no longer the primary source of their happiness; some, because their spouse or lover was, at that time, the primary source of their unhappiness.

Unbeknown to us, some of the people who we hope are missing us wherever they are do miss us; some miss someone else; and some are dead.
