I've been married over 35 years and I need to assure everyone I made the best pick.
But sometimes I do wonder about "the one that got away" and what became of them. In my case there were three, from 1972 to 1977, that got away and deciding do a passive search I did find a little about two of them. By passive I am not interested in seeing them again and in the event one was single I didn't want to give any impression I might be interested.
So it was a simple internet search without signing into a face book or anything like that.
Both are sixty plus now.
One moved from California to Idaho and then to a small town in Oregon. Married once, never divorced she had three children and is now a grandmother. By all appearances she's enjoyed a good life and I am happy for her.
The second one was a very smart lady. When I met her she was an RN at a local flyover country hospital and in a way I was surprised to find she obtained an MD and is a very highly regarded, and successful, oncologist. But, and maybe this isn't for everyone, it appears she never married or had any children.
But I knew then she was destined for great accomplishments she had intelligence, a strong drive and the ability to work long and study hard.
She was a knockout when I knew her and on her facebook page a photo shows her to still be a knockout at 63. She was a health nut so it served her well by all appearances.
I won't but if I ever did contact these women I would apologize for being an idiot in my early to mid 20's but, in my defense, I was to immature to settle down and simply not ready.
For males especially who you are at 23 is not who you are at 33.
But I married a woman who was the best wife and mother any man could ask for. I wouldn't want to go back and change anything.
I think it's normal enough to wonder whatever became of various people who were once in your life.
