So, my husband has a girlfriend. Honestly, their relationship doesnt bother me at all. I actually met up with her one dayI wasnt angry at her, and I thought it would be silly for us to be in a conflict just because of my husband.
We talked for quite a while, and I realized shes actually a lovely woman. After chatting, it honestly felt like wed been mates for years, and we even swapped gifts with each other.
Later on, my husband and his girlfriend decided to have a wedding. Not a real one, of course. I didnt mind at all, so we all got ready for it together. I helped his girlfriend pick out a gorgeous wedding dress, and she gave me advice on what evening dress I should wear. We wanted to keep it personal, so we held the ceremony at our place. I was the witness, and the whole thing felt surprisingly real, except for the absence of a registry office.
On the day of the wedding, we woke up early, finished the last bits of prep, and started getting ready. I helped her with her dress and, on the way to the lounge, we promised each other wed always be friends. Then, my husband and his girlfriend exchanged vows and rings, and they had a rather passionate kissit was sweet.
That first wedding night, they stayed in our house. After my husband drifted off to sleep, his girlfriend came downstairs to the kitchen, and we ended up talking for ages. It was such a lovely, easy chat, and I realised weve got loads in common.
Honestly, I dont feel the least bit humiliated by any of this. If anything, I actually feel quite content. Ive now got someone I chat with all the time, and we spend time togethershes the perfect shopping partner, and we go for walks in the park, or sometimes pop down to the swimming baths. Honestly, the friendship Ive got with her is far more important to me than any man ever could be.
What do you reckon about this sort of friendship?
