Dear Queenie,
I dated a certain boy when we were in high school, but we broke up and he got married to someone else. Later we met up again and had an affair and 2 children, but he wouldn’t leave his wife and I had to raise the kids alone.
Now, 25 years later, he is separated from his wife and we got back together again. He asked me to marry him when his divorce goes through, but it’s been 2 years now and all l have is an engagement ring. He says it’s because his wife is holding up the divorce.
Queenie, how much longer should I have to wait for him?—Lady in waiting
Dear Lady,
He may or may not be telling you the truth about the delay in his divorce. Either way, I would say 25 years is more than long enough.
