I remember, quite some time ago, Gwen saying that her relationship with her now ex was like, “best friends who happened to share children” and I remember that statement really resounding with me. It summed up Rock and I, it seemed and I’ve used her words on numerous occasions while trying to describe what’s happened to my marriage.

I think back to reading that line and wonder, now, how I could ever have identified with the statement. Rock and I couldn’t be further from it. It’s not where we stand at the moment and it almost seems impossible that we ever did.

The truly weird thing…and Gwen, you’ll have to tell me if you differ on this…is that I don’t long for that back. I don’t miss it.

I just want it to be over
