When I posted on social media that I was going through a divorce, Dan, my college sweetheart, messaged me asking if we could talk on the phone.
After hearing Dan's voice, something changed in me. I could suddenly see his red Cavalier. I was skipping my college class, packing an overnight bag, and dashing to Penn Station for the LIRR train to be with him in his dorm.
In college, we fell for each other but ended up going in different directions. We share the same hometown outside Syracuse, New York, but he was a year older.
Breaking up hit me hard, and I never forgot him.
