Haven't posted in while.  This one was pretty enlightening for me.

It’s strange, isn’t it, how the idea of belonging to someone can sound so great? It can be comforting, the way it makes things decided. We like the thought of being held, until it’s too tight. We like that certainty, until it means there’s no way out. And we like being his, until we realize we’re not ours anymore.

"We dated in high school, but drifted apart and ended up marrying different people. Our cousins married each other, though. So we’d see each other at reunions, funerals, weddings… things like that. When his wife died, and my husband died, we got back together. We’ve been together for ten years now.”  "Why did you guys break up in the first place?" "Because he was ‘hot to trot’ back then. He really got around. And I came from a traditional Italian family, so no way my father was going to let me marry somebody like that."
