“That having children has made me hate him.”
“I have two children she knows nothing about.”
“Got two girls pregnant in high school, and they both want nothing to do with me.
That was over 20 years ago, and I’ve known my current wife for about seven years.
One kid died in a car crash, and the other, I have no idea about.”

“I never told my wife that her mother tried to have sex with me.”
Her marriage of 28 years had ended badly, and she was emotionally fragile.
She was very drunk and was absolutely horrified at what she had done when she sobered up.
Some things are too cruel to do, even when you’re trying to hurt each other."

“Ive never had an issue ending relationships and moving on quickly.
Not jumping into another relationship, but just totally skipping being sad and lonely, if that makes sense.
I havent said that to him because Im scared he will take it the wrong way.”

“Just how much I depend on her.
Even now, we’re hardly apart since we both work from home.
She doesn’t know just how sad I get when she goes away.”
I lose my smile, I lose interest in all my hobbies everything.
Once she gets back, though, I’m alright again.”

I’m only staying to get finances in order so the kids don’t suffer.”

“I really dislike his dad.
He is misogynistic, close-minded, and verbally abusive.
I wouldnt be surprised if it even became physical by how much he hits the wall.”
“I do not want him around our children (when we have them) at all.”

“I have thoughts of suicide, but I cant do that to my husband and kids.”
“I was born with only one hand.
I have rheumatoid arthritis in the one hand I have, and I know its spreading.
Im only 31 years old.
I cant do this for another 50+ years.
I am in such bad pain now and its only going to get worse.
I dont want my husband to turn into a caregiver.
I cant envision not being able to take care of myself.”
