I stood by you for three years after you decide to “step down” from your job. You were fired and deservedly so. I supported you emotionally and financially until you found a new job. I supported you emotionally and financially when your new job kept you away every night. I watched your son every night treating him as if he were my own. I took him to and from practices and games. Picked him up after school. Made him dinner and did homework with him. Put him to bed and said prayers with him. You were never there. You were away at work and then after work straight to the casino and when the casino wasn’t enough eventually you sought comfort in someone else’s arms. The whole time I was at “home” looking after our “family.” I accepted your faults and mistakes and we agreed to go to counseling but you were still continuing your affair while in counseling. You blamed me for all of it. Your affair, your absence, all my fault. That hurt the worst. Not what you did, it was the fact that you had the nerve to blame me for it. I can look back and say I tried everything to make it work. I tried to hold it all together for your son if nothing else. But my efforts, my feelings, and my needs meant less than nothing to you. To top it all off you are amazed and baffled by my leaving. You say I abandoned our family when in reality you checked out not only on me but you own son years ago. You still haven’t grasped the magnitude of what you did. You didn’t just do this to me and you. You did this to your own son. You chased away the only father figure he’s ever known. The only stability he’s had in his life. One day I hope to forgive you. But I will never forget the total disregard you showed towards me and your son. I have no use for you in my life anymore. You have done enough damage. If you would do this to me in a relationship what would you do to me as just friends? I hope you get the help you need for your sons sake. I wish I could be there when karma comes a knockin’.
