Challenge Day 151

151. The Grass is Greener: Write about switching the place with someone or going to where it seems the “grass is greener”.

DH2 and I have been friends since 1983 when we met in college, so although we never dated, we were always just friends. We both married other people, had kids, and remained friends. He and his then-wife traveled to amazing places around the world, posting photos of all their adventures and I would look at the pictures and feel envious of their life. From my perspective, then-wife had an idyllic life: a loyal and well-adjusted husband, financial means to travel and have a nice house, and an overall nice lifestyle. I remember thinking that I would like her life. Through coincidences, serendipity, and weird timing, I now have the life that I was envious of! The grass is greener on this side of the fence by the way.
