#11
What is your greatest fear in ending your marriage?
After Ken's confession, I was in pain and felt like killing him, but I thought about my young children, life, and family. I'm still shocked.
Afterward, I focused on self-reflection — my own contribution to the drama. Trusting Ken for a long time was my mistake and unreasonable kindness.
It's a life-changing event— marriage ends, and I cannot take fatherhood from him.
The morning after Ken left
My daughter walked into our room and noticed her dad was not in bed.
