He looked at me and said, ‘Can they change it to Friday?
I have tickets to see the new Marvel superhero movie on Thursday.’
Unfortunately, things got worse from there.
My kids and I are doing fine now.
But that was definitely the moment."
He later confessed that he thought having a child would make him straight."
“When our child was younger, she wanted to be a doctor.
I ordered her a junior medical book, and when it arrived, she read the book all day.
She proudly shared all she learned with me and could not wait to share it all with her father.
When he got home, she eagerly showed the book and began sharing what she read.
She was seven!”
“We had just had our second child and were preparing to move to a different state.
It was a lot going on all at once.
When I took his clothes out of the hamper the following day, they reeked of perfume.
I stupidly thought he had just hugged a lot of nice-smelling people at his party.
She flew to visit him from the state we had just left.
All my furniture and belongings were in storage at the new location.
I had just given birth to our second child, so I wanted to save my marriage.
No support, no encouragement.
I felt so alone.”
I wish I had known his parents still held that much power over him, specifically his mother.
He tries to use her shaming tactics on me, but they don’t work on me.
She gave up trying to control me a long time ago because I didn’t engage with her.
you’re able to’t control someone who sees your game and won’t participate.
He also won’t enforce rules, limits, or bedtimes.
He is inconsistent with enforcing hygiene and homework.
He becomes very insulting and verbally abusive, probably because that’s what he grew up with.
So many regrets!"
He got so mad that I interrupted the video he was watching and refused to walk with me.
He killed the vibes for the whole labor and delivery.
It took me four more years before I kicked his worthless ass to the curb.
The kids and I are so much happier without him!"
Sure enough, there was a burner phone in the pocket.
He had an entirely different persona that he’d built to get to cheat.

I needed a partner to sit from behind, hold the pillow, and help with my breathing techniques.
I begged and pleaded with my partner for months to go.
I was so embarrassed; I couldnt partake in the class if he wasnt there."
“I worked at a hospital as a nursing assistant.
I did 12-hour shifts three days a week.
He was constantly pushing me to work extra days.
My daughter was 14 months old at the time.
I came home from work; it was 7:45 p.m., and they were both asleep.
He told me she hadn’t wanted to eat all day.”
“This was the first time she had asked to eat.
He wasn’t working, didn’t do housework, and stayed up all night.
I moved out two months later, and he was upset because I ruined his life.
He doesn’t have a relationship with his daughter.
That was his choice, not mine.
However, he turned out to be envious and jealous of the relationship my children and I had established.
Also, he was mentally, emotionally, and physically detached!
It was total hell and caused emotional scarring.”
I was exhausted from having a child who needed weekly doctor visits and treatments (cancer).
I was raising them alone.
I was going through the motions alone.
I was doing everything alone."
“He would leave for 912 weeks at a time and come back for one to two weeks.
So where was this money that he was supposedly making for ‘us?’
After the third baby, we lived like roommates for another five years before we separated.
What a waste of 20 years.”
“I had preterm labor starting at four months.
I went into labor at seven months and required an emergency c-section.
I called my then-husband, who was working in another state.
He asked if I could ‘keep the baby in’ because he couldnt leave work.
It shook me to my core.
It was as if he was telling me that I was ruining his life.
I actually felt unsafe for a split second.”
The next three months of my pregnancy were a mix ofemotions, but still with a lot of anger.
Yeah, were still together, but I dont think I can take it much longer.
I think I need to trust my gut."
“I’m the daughter of a single mother.
