I got over it going to my appointment alone and when I got home Tyler was there, I gave him the ultrasound photos and said, “you missed it”. He said he was sorry but then celebrated having a boy and started calling everyone. He didn’t notice I went straight to bed, not celebrating with him.…

By the time he got out of jail I had another apartment ready to move into across town. Again, it was only in my name, hard to have credit when you have everything handed to you. Once I hit about seven months I started having contractions. Came to a point they were consistent and I…

Cindy came up to me at work and said, “do you mind not telling anyone yet, I haven’t told my friends”. That’s when I saw Cindy in a different way, and it turned ugly from there. This is the woman that suggested I date her son, now she’s embarrassed because we are having a baby…

I took a test at the end of my shift at work with a friend, she was convinced I was pregnant. Tasha was such a good friend, we had weekly dinner dates. She bought two tests, I couldn’t buy them cause Cindy might find out. I took the first one and it immediately showed up…

Tyler and I met because of his mother introducing us, I worked with her while working in the hospital. She neglected to tell me he just got out of jail; we made plans to meet at a local bar. He walked in with confidence, I knew it was him from the picture she showed me.…

As soon as I walked inside, I immediately broke into tears knowing I will never see him again. That was Dave, he ghosted people, he ghosted his own brother and he was going to ghost us. I thought maybe since I had been his longest relationship, that fact we were married for almost seven years,…

Two days after Dave left, I woke up with so much anger I had to burn my energy somehow. I did just that, with all of Dave’s items. I got boxes down from the attic, got packing supplies and started in our room and bathroom. I had all his clothes, shoes, everything out of the…

Dave snapped more and more often, mostly about Trey not doing or doing something he didn’t like, or he accused me of cheating constantly. I don’t know exactly when during COVID he changed, but the drinking got out of hand. I finally told him the drinking was a problem, but that didn’t stop him. I…

Dave and Treyson were always hyperactive playing video games or whatever. Anytime they got along was a blessing for me. Dave and I made friends with a few neighbors and it really started feeling like we belonged there. That was until Dave caused the biggest and stupidest scene ever.  Our neighbors from two doors down…

Dave was Italian/Mexican and his temper did not disappoint. I saw the temper he had and I ignored it. Prior to us moving, we went to meet my dad at the local bar in my small town. We ended up finding a table and it was packed with a band. We were having a good…
