Knowing when to walk away.

27. Life is too short to be unhappy and not enjoy marrage

If there are no kids it’s essier to walk away. I was married for 4 years to a guy I realized on the honeymoon was a big mistake. Because I was raised Catholic I stuck it out. Everytime I’d talk to my mother she said” don’t get pregnant” I was so miserable. Then on my 29th birthday he got drunk and told me he married me for my money and wasn’t in love with me. The next day he apologized and said it was the alcohol. But I knew that marriage was over. Then he came home from work the next day and I saw in his face rage and hate and I left him and we divorced. It took a good year and then I got over it. Never saw him again but called him a year later for final closure urged by my therapist. He was a major asshole to me. I cried one last time over him and that was it. About a month later I met this handsome guy in a nightclub. I tried to get rid of him because I did not want to be in a relationship, just have fun. He said if I gave him my number he’d leave me alone. I gave him my number thinking he’d never call. Well he did 3 weeks later. We dated me despite my being commitment phobic, but he persisted and for three years on and off. This year we celebrated our 29 Th wedding anniversary. It turns out he was my soulmate and love of my life.

So I tell you move on and start your life it will get better.
