In the book Maneater, the main character, Clarissa, said that she takes/learns something from every boy toy, what is something you have taken with you/learned from your ex-boyfriends/husband?
You can answer this question even if you haven't read the book!

I have a ridiculously boring life and married the first man I ever seriously dated. And yes I know that's weird.
Ahem. The biggest thing I've learned from him (and am still learning) is that not everything is a huge deal. That sometimes we need to sit back, relax and wait.
I tried to block out most of my life with my ex's but I'll think about it and try to get back to you.
You learn something from every relationship. I had my heart broken and I have broken other hearts too. I strongly suggest that you have your heart broken, it makes you stronger and helps you realize what works for you.
Could I throw back a question? If you were Clarissa, would you go back to the father of your child, the man you married, even if you married him under false pretenses?
I think I wouldn't. I find it hard to trust again once the trust is broken. But if I really loved him, and the lost of trust is not caused by an affair, he could find ways to win back my trust.
I've learned that there has to be more than the "butterflies in your stomach" everytime you see your man. The man you are going to spend your life with needs to be your friend and teammate so when you're over the "honeymoon phase" there is still something there.
Love has to grow and you have to constantly work to keep your marriage strong.
I think that I have probably taken something from every man or woman that I have known in my life. Sometimes it was something really good, and sometimes it was something that I recognized as something that I would never do. Either way it has improved who I am today.
