It is nearly two decades since our paths went in different directions. In the mean time we joined jobs in different cities, worked, met a few interesting people, made new friends who taught us much more than we thought we would learn, changed jobs, went up in life, got married and had children.
Even though I hardly told you how much I loved you, I never stopped loving you through all this, yes I still love you and have been thinking of you nearly every single day since the day we parted ways. It wasn't like we fought with each other, we never even said our good byes.
We even kept bumping into each other once in a while, though not physically. You would be there in a friend's house when I call a friend, or you would have written to my cousin, and then we got back in touch with each other and started chatting on phone and letters flew...but something somewhere stopped us from getting together.
Now meeting you last week has brought a closure to everything. Not exactly the one I would have dreamt of, but still I am happy that there is a closure somewhere.
I was surprised when I met you at the wedding. I didn't expect to see you there with your wife and your little boy. And we got talking. I should say, your wife is a lovely woman. Absolutely adore her. I am happy that you have someone as wonderful as her to take care of you. I sure would have lost my patience, or that is what I think.
You haven't changed much. Yes, you have stopped smoking, but you still drink. I am not sure if I could have handled that. And you son is lovely but there is something missing, not sure what. I see how you still don't care about your health, or your son's health for that matter. You don't exercise, don't eat healthy, and you don't have the patience to forgive your family and friends for what they have done. I am not a person to try and change anyone for my sake. I would have accepted you the way you are and I would have gone crazy in the process.
I see all that and I think I couldn't have tolerated any of this. May be it is good that we didn't get together, we could have ended up in a divorce.
I think now it is only right that we went our different ways. Atleast you are happy. I see that your wife absolutely loves you and spoils you rotten all the time. I can see that she even justifies what ever you do. Not sure if I would have done any of that. I am really really happy for you and hopefully I will get you out of my mind someday soon.
