*Names have not been changed to protect the innocent because they're all guilty. And I got receipts for EVERYTHING in this post.

So when I wrote about my story, my truth, I decided to share it on social media because I felt it was time for my story to be told. I also shared that I was getting a divorce for the entire world to see. This has been my very private space, and as everyone knows, I'm a very private person. I don't particularly like sharing what's going on in my life, but I felt like it was time to stop hiding and to start sharing more about myself. 

That post was difficult to write, but it was just time. This post, while a bit easier comes with receipts as I'm sharing screenshots of our messages together (Erica = Erika (before I knew the correct spelling of her name and I haven't messaged her since October 2020 so no need to change it), J for Jerk = Jerrell).

I GOT RECEIPTS

*Names have not been changed to protect the innocent because they're all guilty. This is also going to be LONG, so be prepared to sit down and read a book. 

No one ever said marriage is easy. It's not. Whenever I meet couples that have been married for over 20 years, I always ask how they did it, and I get the same response every time. 

"IT WAS HARD BUT WE KEPT TRYING."

Unfortunately, after 15 years, we stopped trying. 

 It's not the truth that hurts, it's the lies
