I'm not sure what this means, Carolyn. I never had any concept - never-
ever - of a Mr Right. I had always thought such a cultural notion mythic.
I simply enjoy-- usually with great pleasure and satisfaction in the
moment, the "Mr" (and once or twice the Ms) I am spending my present-day
hours with. I honestly can't say they were or are "mistakes" for this
sounds like a ghastly betrayal to me. Whether it's a day or two (?) as in
Angel's case, or several weeks (as in the case of Tess) they were formative
times and in many ways enriching albeit occasionally sad & disappointing
(but that is also enriching).
I'm glad you feel I've "grasped the basics" but I'm not sure what they are.
I have only ever been a "free lover"** and that's a perpetual learning
experience -- to me
Best
