would you take her back

[BrianJ]

What would you do? Seeing its Valentines Day and the Aussies beat the Poms at Soccer, I am in trying to make up my mind as to whether I should take her back.

We never did divorce, but have been separated for a few years.. she went to another, I stayed single. Now I am inclined to say … “ hey come back”

She was nothing before we met. In fact she would never have amounted to anything. I knocked her into shape (so to speak) taught her all the ways of the world and together we traveled many miles, were good company together, particularly when there were just the two of us.
She has only had one other lover since we split up, I sort of, played the field a bit, but that doesn’t matter, I am forgiven. But is it a mistake. ?

Have you ever gone down this path ? Is it the wrong way to go… should I just forget her and look elsewhere?

Mind you she is ideal.. beautiful shape, strong as steel, built for comfort.. in fact I reckon I know every inch of her. Should do I built her, well not the steel hull ,that was professionally built.

So why did we part I hear you say? Today is the 14 th anniversary of my “ open heart “ surgery… I didn’t think I would make it so sold her before I let the surgeon near me. Now the last owner sadly passed away a couple of months ago and she is on the market.

What to do ?

It sounds like she broke your heart, but the surgeon fixed that.
so go get her!

Why spoil a beautiful memory?

Des Sleightholme once wrote that he could never bear to go back aboard Hoshi, because he had left the best of his youth in her safe keeping. I sympathise.

Little improves with age, boats and women alike. The lithe and willing love of your youth will have turned into a grouchy and grudging middle-aged matron. Don't look back, don't spoil the memory.

And what the hell, you no longer need the sort of mate who will willingly take the rough with the smooth, in exchange for the passion of youth. Second marriage is to that 'trophy boat' who you can pamper and show the world - and most importantly yourself - who you have become.

My Brother did this with his wife and seems to have regretted it ever since. I told him he'd have been better off with that pretty young thing who worked for the Council but he never was a listener!

Yes. You will not form as deep an attachment to any other boat, and sailing is, at least in part, a sentimental thing.

You didn't know her when you met her but obviously enjoyed finding out. Go and find another one and enjoy finding out again. Life's too short to keep repeating experiences!!
