Today WOULD have been my 13th wedding anniversary.
Instead, I am working on getting into a new place, filing for child support and working with legal aide to get divorced.
Saturday night, I'm getting text messages about who I am with, who I am getting it on with, whatever. I've never been unfaithful to the man I was married to, EVER. Even though he moved out, broke my heart, played "indecisive" for the last 2 months, I still held out hope. Friday night he said he wanted to work on it, apparently "working on it" meant "work on it, but not with you."
So, Saturday night I go to smooth it over and try to "work it out". I find the man I am married to getting out of the shower with a girl he used to work with. Of course he maintained that he had been faithful to me despite moving out a few months ago, on his own accord of course. This is what I get. My parents sold his mom 5 acres of property for a very cheap amount. I get to view this, RIGHT behind my house. The house where I grew up, the house where I brought home my son from the hospital, the house where I was determined to make my marriage work.... til death do us part. They have no shame at all, either. No use of hiding it now that the cat is out of the bag, I guess.
Let's just say that knowing names and social networking is a powerful tool, I outed her to her husband. The poor guy, his grandma died yestereday on top of finding out that his wife is shacking up with my husband at his mom's house.
Anyway, this is difficult. I basically knew the marriage was over. I guess this "thing" they have been doing has been going on for a while. She seperated from her husband the same month mine moved out, ironically.
Yes, I'm a damned bleeding heart today. But I'm giving myself til 6 am to get over it. He's made the choice to leave his family, breaking all commitments that he had promised to me and our son.
I figured him and I are both better off.
To the man I am still married to... Thanks for turning your back on everyone who every loved you and cared about you. We are all too good for you and you just have showed it repeatedly.
If you have anything you want to say to be supportive, I would greatly appreciate it. If you want to be an asshole about it, please spare me. I've put up with enough of that crap lately.
And thanks for hearing me out.
I don't give a shit about you.227
