For the record, I know this is totally illogical. Bear with me.
I broke it off several years ago with my TBM ex because he wanted a Molly Mormon and I realized I was pretty sure I didn't believe. I also wanted a career and he didn't support that or me making money at all except maybe from home. I found out a few days ago he's married, and I'm having complicated feelings.
I absolutely know I have no feelings for this person, even nostalgia. I barely even had any attraction for him at the time, but felt sort of pressured. And I'm happily married to a nevermo. But I did feel sad about his post...He wrote about having an eternal companion, and being with her forever, and how he knew they were soulmates decided by God. I found myself envying that kind of certainty, or someone saying those kinds of certain, spiritual, "eternal companion" things about me. This sent me into a spiral about what if that's a deeper kind of love...And on and on. I 100% know I can't stand the church and don't believe it. But there's this feeling of something wrong, or that maybe our normal marriage wasn't special enough because it wasn't "forever" and other foolish things.
Please, talk me out of it! I'm in such a weird funk.
