Six Weeks Later

Six weeks ago, tonight.

I got my life back.

I called her out on her cheating.

I let her know that I knew.

That I saw the texts.

That what I suspected was true.

I dumped her on the spot.

I kicked her out.

Seems like so much longer, in the best possible way.

Now, six weeks later, I have my life back.

I have fallen in love with my home again.

I get to do what I want.

When I want.

My living room is just that…..a living room, and not just the couch she slept on every night for the last 3 years of our 9 years together.

I am me again.

I am back.

No more sitting in the next room fighting the urge to end my life.

I am in therapy, and enjoying each day.

Should have done this long ago.

If you’re going through what I went through, listen to me.

It gets better.

It gets easier.

It wasn’t your fault.

You will make it through this.

Life is great!
