Confessions of a Former Drama Queen

“Drama doesn’t just walk into your life our of nowhere…you either create it, invite it, or associate with people that bring it…”

I have an addictive personality. I’ve over indulged in a lot of things in my life, not the least of which was drama. I created enough drama in my second marriage/divorce to make Shakespeare roll over in his grave. Just ask my second ex-husband. Ok, it takes two to tango but honestly, I was the best at it because I had an excellent foil. Children of alcoholics notoriously create drama as a diversionary tactic. And what is ingrained in childhood follows you throughout your life unless you learn to recognize and correct the behaviors.

My correction came in the form of Mr. Virgo. He was a no nonsense kind of guy that I absolutely could not manipulate. I think I cried twice in seven and a half years and, while it hurt him to see, it did not sway his course. The gift that gave me was the ability to correct behaviors that had not served me well in my life. It has allowed me to grow in ways I couldn’t have in previous relationships. People are brought into our lives for a reason. Mr. Virgo set my sails and changed my course so that I could have a much better life experience. This was one of his greatest gifts to me. <3
