I fell for the dream you promised – till death do us part. That ultimately was the only bit of those vows that was true.

For richer for poorer? People say it’s hard for a man when the woman earns more – emasculating or something. However, you didn’t seem to mind and I was happy to share. After all, we were building a life together. Funny how when the tables were turned, suddenly your money was yours and mine was mine.

For better for worse? When we met we talked about family, In that time back before, we wanted the same future. Of course, things can change, people can change – I understand that. But didn’t I deserve to know? Didn’t I deserve honesty and the chance to make my own choices instead of being strung along until it was too late. You always gave just enough hope that better was around the corner. You were never able to say never.

I have to admit, I can’t entirely blame you. I have to look at myself too. I could have walked away. I could have pushed harder and stood up for what I really wanted. Instead, I let a demon grow inside of me where a baby should have been – a rotten ball of resentment.
