You're a man. Stop, stop, stop. Please stop telling people what you're going through. No matter how stressful it is. Solve your problems alone. Sympathy is only for women and kids.
Not for men.
Not every divorce damages children. But some do, deeply. The uncomfortable part is that the adults get to move on and call it healing while the children are left adapting to a family they never asked for.
The internet will have you thinking love is a power struggle. It’s not. If you have a good man, love him loudly. Cook for him. Care for him. Spoil him sometimes. And yes, humble yourself when you’re wrong. Good men are not as easy to find as the internet makes it seem.
Sex feels different when you never masturbate.
Getting drunk feels different when you have reasons to celebrate.
Spending money feels different when you’re rewarding yourself.
Cheat meal feels different when you keep a strict diet.
Earn your fun.
The person you marry will eventually annoy you. They will have flaws. They will change. They will disappoint you. You will do the same to them. That’s not proof you chose the wrong person. That’s proof you chose a human being.
