I am definitely not defending him, just making an observation from having been on the receiving end of similarly crappy treatment. I'm sorry this happened to you, and you deserve better. |
As sad as it is, that was one of my first thoughts when he chose to set himself upon this path. I have felt that he decided this course of action when the cash flow ceased, ie: my income producing ability. See, when we first met, I was gainfully employed and he wasn't. I had my own condo, he lived in his parents' garage. I had a car, he didn't and had lost his license to a DUI. (Now I see the pattern of red flags!).
Over the years though he became a viable contributor to the home, life and family we were building. He overcame, conquered even, so much and everytime I was right by his side with unflinching faith. I willingly sacrificed my job to be his partner in achieving his dream of a family biz.
There are a multitude of events, good and bad, in the story of us. Hurts that it seems to me that he has chosen to edit and rewrite that history.
Now here I am, attempting to completely reconstruct my life, beginning with employment.
