History…how much can one person take?

So, I am thinking I am super-wife, and trying to suprise my husband with a birthday gift he’s been wanting, all the while doing it behind his back as a HUGE suprise. So, I’ve been on craigslist looking for this item he wants and I found one right in Lake Stevens and the guy is willing to deliver it, plus its really inexpensive…so I am super excited.

I emailed the guy selling it and we have been talking back and forth and I am getting ready to set up an appointment to see it…when he asks, “Are you okay with seeing an ex-bf?”

Instantly my mind starts racing and heart starts pounding and I an thinking…who in the world is this guy? Then, I put the email address together and I figure it out. He asked me if I used to be Shannon Bishop and then I knew. Keith flipping Cardwell…go figure. The one person I have been desperately trying to avoid for years, and now he knows my name, my email…he’s found me. I can’t believe it. Of all the people around, he’s the one selling the item I want.

So, what do I do? Do I suck it up and go look at the item and let him deliver it to my house and deal with it. After all, he’s engaged, has a son and I am married and also have a son. But, the guy still gets to me. We have so much history. Is it worth it?
