Recently a family member has decided to end his 27 year marriage due to "reconnecting" with his high school sweetheart. Says he never stopped loving her. This is a man that was considered to be the "greatest husband ever", the one that always made grand gestures and spoke often of his devotion and love of his wife and family. So much for that.

But it made me wonder....how many of you would do the same? I'll try to do this in a poll, but I've never done one before so bear with me.

1) You would never leave your SO - you are devoted and faithful.

2) If the one that got away would return to you, you'd drop the SO like a hot potato.

No. I'm still close friends with my high school sweetheart. There are no romantic feelings left there whatsoever. There is nobody from my past that I have any unresolved feelings about and I love my husband far more than I ever loved anyone before him.

No is the answer for me , not because I'm with somebody now but because there is nobody "I always loved "

The guy you speak about must have been living a lie .... it seems to be common these days, unfortunately

Nope.

A girl I dated in high school started that crap with me. I passed. I wasn't interested. She was still the same. Evidence that people don't inherently change.

This question assumes I currently have a SO, right?

I voted yes, but I don't have a current S.O. to disrespect.

There is one that got away. If she ever got divorced, there is nothing, except maybe selling my soul to the Devil that I wouldn't do to have her again.

Doesn't work when you've only been with one person. Sigh

You're fine. I never had a high school sweetheart.

Pass the tissues please.
