I saw my former brother-in-law at the grocery store the other day.
It was the first time that I had be in the same room as he was since he and my little sister separated, so we are talking five years or so...
Upon recognizing him, I did what came naturally and said, "Hi, B------!" in oh-I-am-surprised-to-see-you way. He nodded, and then told his son, my nephew, that I was there.
This made me sad for a reason that I cannot explain.
There is no point to this aside from me having winter thoughts about lost relationships.
