Also, when I read your story I pictured your husband (because it played like a movie trailer or short film in my head) to be played by the dude who plays Liz's ex Dennis on 30 Rock (but a not funny version) and your Handsome Boy to be played by James Franco (who's automatically a funny version). And you to be played by you, of course. Am I close?
The ex is 2 years older than me. The boyfriend is 5 years younger. Honestly, I married too young and our relationship was more of a friendship love than a romantic love. I think I was just happy to have someone take care of me. I was out of my parents' house and immediatley moved in with him, so I never had a chance to be on my own. He treated me like a child, did everything for me, and I lost myself.

You should actually picture the ex as a greasy Elvis wanna be, and the handsome boy as a bald James Franco. This would be a great movie. I should write a screenplay....with me ending up in a problem-free dream relationship with the handsome fella, living in the same town and having mind-blowing sex every night.

I suppose I should also mention that I never had any babies with the ex...I guess you'd have to bang to do that, though.
