Hi all. I have always wanted to be a gamer, but I have the hand/eye coordination of a walrus using a calculator watch. When I was a kid — like 8 or 9 — my dad got us an Atari, and I played it all the time. But back then you had a single joystick with one button. Hell, I am not even sure if I was any good at it, or if I just hit the button enough that I got lucky. We had Pong and Space Invaders, but I had the attention span of a hillbilly on meth, so I lost interest pretty fast. Then we got Pac-Man

That is, of course, until she realized — while going through difficult fertility procedures — that she and her then-husband spoke two different "emotional language[s]." Six months deep into her fertility journey, Bush revealed, she "knew deep down that I absolutely had made a mistake."After separating from Hughes after less than a year of marriage, the actress found herself in a group of girlfriends who were going through similar "issues … in their own homes." One of those women was Harris, "who was in the process of figuring out her own split from her wife [Ali Krieger]."Calling Harris "a kind ear for those of us who opened up about our problems," Bush explained it wasn't until "other people in our safe support bubble pointing out to me how we'd finish each other's sentences or be deeply affected by the same things" for her to realize there was something special between her and the former USWNT player."It took me confronting a lot of things, what felt like countless sessions of therapy, and some prodding from loved ones, but eventually I asked Ashlyn to have a non-friend-group hang to talk about it," Bush continued, calling their 4.5-hour meal together "truly one of the most surreal experiences of my life thus far.""In hindsight, maybe it all had to happen slowly and then suddenly all at once. Maybe it was all fated.
