I was a happily married man, 2 kids. I love her but I'm not in love with her anymore. Sound trite? I wasn't looking for anything, but I bumped into a woman who knocked me on my behind over the course of several months - conversation, personality, etc. And I've put myself in that embarrassingly-sappy spot from "Bridges of Madison County," in which I'm in the truck at the intersection, my hand trembling on the door handle, wanting to jump out and follow what feels like the time and dreams of the rest of my life with this woman. I've never been unfaithful, and I am a healthy, intelligent, conscious person who doesn't want to hurt anyone. I also feel like I have the chance of a lifetime with this other woman, who's caused me to look at my marriage and admit I'm not the person I want to be, I've adapted willingly so much for the marriage, but this other woman allows me to be who I consider to be the real me. I thought I was too smart to risk it all for a dream ...
