Three Years After Divorce, My Ex-Husband Came Back To Take A Bite
Weeks ago, my ex-husband called to apologize for all the hurt he caused me three years ago. He cheated, he gaslighted me, he created the impression in the minds of his family that I was the one who cheated so his family would back our divorce.......CONTINUE READING THE ARTICLE FROM THE SOURCE>>>>>
After battling it for over a year, we got the divorce three years ago. I got to keep the kids but he never called me or the kids to talk to them. Not even on their birthdays or when the kids expressly said they wanted to talk to him. Even in divorce, he kept hurting me. Only for him to call to apologize out of the blue.
I told him, “I don’t want to hear this over the phone. I want to see you say it to my face and in front of the kids. That’s the only way I would forgive you.”
He came around the next day. I hadn’t seen him in over two years. Right when I opened the door for him, he said, “I’m deeply sorry for everything that happened. I’m a monster. I’m everything you say I am but at this moment, all I want is your forgiveness.”
Hmmmm, hours later, we were both picking our clothes from the floor and putting them on. It lasted longer than anything we ever had while married. I quickly rushed to the bathroom and locked it. I heard him saying he was going. I responded, “alright.”
He came when the kids were sleeping. He didn’t ask to see them or ask how they were.
When I heard the sound of the door shut, I burst into tears. I don’t know what came over me. He didn’t even have to try hard to get me. He was my husband so he knew where to touch to get me. He did it like a man possessed. I’m now here wearing my shame like mascara. I’ve shamed my family, my friends and everyone who stood by me during those hard times this same man caused me.
It’s been over a week. He hasn’t texted or called. This makes the feeling even worse. Was he genuinely sorry? Now I can’t tell for sure but I’m sure of one thing, that I’m the cheapest commodity you’d ever find in the market. Herrrh, I’ve never known any regret bigger than this one. Sobs. Tears. It shall be well.
