The Mid Life Partner
When I was younger I thought I was supposed to be given a woman to stand beside me and create a life together. It just never happened. Now that I'm older I realize that I can't go back and do it over with someone. I'll never have that experience of sharing a life together, a life partner is forever out of reach. The best I can do now is find a mid life partner. I never wanted to be alone, I always wanted a friend. Fairly soon I'll just have to accept that it wasn't in the cards I suppose. But it sucks.
