What I was thinking when I saw Gatsby

It was just a normal day when I was on my way to Nick's small cottage. I thought we were just simply going to have lunch. It was a hot day and I could feel the heat beating down on my skin. BUT when I first laid eyes on Gatsby after not seeing him for eight years I was speechless and dumbfounded. It was so long ago that we were in love but it was this love was the strongest of feelings that one could ever feel. He was training for the army and as soon as I laid eyes on him for the first time I knew I loved him. He left me though, He went to the army and left me here to move on,to find a new life, to find a new love. I know I technically left him because he didn't have any money but that's besides the point. Either way it was his fault we broke up.I wanted to run into his arms and run away at the same time but I still just could not pull my eyes away. My second thoughts were how am I going to approach this? Am I going to have an affair or am I going to stay faithful to my husband? These thoughts terrified me and I then realized that this was what life is throwing at me and it was made to be. I know I love my husband but why does this feel so right?
