The Beginning of Something Else

On June 1, 2007 I found out my husband and partner of almost two decades had been unfaithful to me since before our marriage, and had been having intercourse with prostitutes for 3 1/2 years. This is what happened next.

Don't Worry Darling

I just watched "Don't Worry Darling" and I'm a little freaked out because that's what the Addict did to me. He let me believe I was living in a happy life while he was doing the life that he wanted to do. He made me feel crazy, lied to my face about things I saw and felt that were real. Took my automony through those lies so that I could not choose. Pathetically keeping me where he wanted me in a fake world because in the real world he felt terrified and unseen. So fucking unnerving.

And just like at the end of the movie, I feel the pull of the happy life I thought I was leading. And like Florence Pugh, I have to make a choice. And I have to choose myself.
