Hollywood endings.

After CC told me about her new love earlier in the week, I had a period pondering how weird it was to end up having sex with someone you've known that long (over 20 years), then I realised that, had things happened differently with E3, that I might have done the same without a thought.

The it hit me today that it's not that uncommon. Offhand, I can think of four real-life instances where something did or could have happened between two long-term friends:

• CC and her new man (roughly 20 years)
• KfW2 and her now husband (10 years)
• R2 and her now husband (though strictly speaking, this was an ex-boyfriend coming back, but other circumstances make it relevant to this list)
• E3 and me (friends since school)

I'm pretty sure I'm missing at least one more couple, as well.

Is this just me or is it more frequent, in general?
