The First Time Around

I jumped into getting married for the first time. It was a mistake, I was too young, and she definitely wasn't the right girl. I loved her, I know I did, but I didn't fully realize what responsibilities came from wedded bliss, and she wasn't the right person to tie and settle me down. In the end, after our first son was born, and she began to get frazzled and irritated easily, things just began to deteriorate. We would fight all the time, which wasn't good for our son, until we finally just called it quits. Part of me is sad it didn't work, but the other part of me is very glad because I never would have met my second wife otherwise.
