Forever Lost My Love
I was married to Chad Caldwell for ten years.
I met all his girlfriends during our marriage. Whenever he got bored and wanted to move on, I was his best excuse.
"If you marry me, you'll end up like her. Too familiar and no spark left."
On our anniversary, I wiped tears for his latest ex, a college girl, while he was at the movies with his new fling.
She used up a pack of tissues, and I seemed to see my old self in her.
Afterward, I asked Chad for a divorce.
He was confused. "Why not wait a bit? Maybe I'll turn over a new leaf."
I gave a faint smile but said nothing. Instead, I booked a plane ticket and flew across the ocean.
If he wouldn't turn around, I'd take the first step.
