Married to Him – Stronger


 Powered by Max Banner Ads 

He was gone for all of two weeks. He called daily and set aside time to see Muk a few days a week. He begged and pleaded for us to work our marriage out. I put my foot down and held firm on my denials. I was getting stronger! Everything was going smooth and moving along with the divorce. He signed the first set of papers waiving the required 2 year separation period. He also filed his appearance. I took this as we were no longer together.

I started looking for a house for Muk and me. Within a matter of weeks I found a 3 bedroom split level house not too far from where we were living. The house needed some work actually it needed a lot of work. It would be my project to keep me busy while I worked on getting over him. The house was structurally sound but the previous owners completely neglected the inside. There were holes in the walls and the floor. The carpet was a dingy grey and there was a very unpleasant smell in the house. My life started to take on a  renewed spirit. So much so that I began dating.

I felt bad the first time I went on a date but I quickly reminded myself he went on a cruise with another woman so why should I be so caring. Heck that’s what got me in this mess in the first place; being too nice. With that thought in my back pocket, I started back talking to a guy I used to date prior to my meeting Him.  He was 10 years my senior and an all around cool guy. We talked, well I talked and he listened. He let me vent all my frustrations. That was the existant of our “relationshps” since everytime I wanted to go out and always complained of never having any money. So I met another guy around my job. He was about 6 years older than me. He was married and was going through the same types of problems as I was with Him. We bonded over our mutual misery. We talked on the phone often actually more than we saw each other. He was a nice guy and giving me the attention and time Spank had refused to give me. He would come to my job and bring me lunch a couple days a week. We both were going through the process of leaving our spouses and talked about spending more time together.  

But after two weeks, I was surprised to see him at the house in the office on the computer.

What are you doing here? I asked with a perplexed look on my face.

Look Sen, I know you don’t want me here but I’ve been gon for 2 weeks and I’m tired of living with my boy. I have a house which I pay a mortgage on every month and you want me to live someplace else and help them pay bills there. I’m not doing it anymore so we gotta find a way to make this work.

I waved him off…Whateva… as I walked away. I didn’t plan on this happening but he was right this house was his too.

Over the next couple of weeks, we didn’t talk much. Hi’s and bye’s in passing and no real communication in between. The more I saw him and saw how little he actually cared about me, the more I wanted to see him hurt. I began intentionally holding conversations on the telephone with males in front of him. I wasn’t extra but if he paid attention he would’ve been able to tell I wasn’t on the phone with a female. Still no reaction….

But one day he was going to react. He had too right? I mean he says he loves me so he would have to care. Right?!?!

    Wow. I can understand all, but playing the “I will do this in your face” card, is a good way to end up in the hospital, or in the morgue. I am glad things did not get out of hand.

    Even then you loved him. Yes you did… You know how I know? Because you wanted him to notice you, feel you… want you. You wanted him to feel your pain. That is what someone in love does. A person NOT in love, pays no attention to ideas or feelings like that because mentally, emotionally and psychologically has moved on.

    The opposite of love is not hate, as hate is a emotion. The opposite of love… is indifference. It is an attitude that sees you in pain, and it makes no difference to them at all…

    Baby, he just ain’t that into you… SING MARY!!!!

      My my my. When you put it like that it makes so much sense. That’s the problem right there I love him and he’s indifferent. That’s how he can be so cold and non-chalent, at least until he thinks I need rescuing.

    Uncle Peanut you are soo right. I was looking for a neutral word to describe Spank, and indifferent suits him well. He seems to lack the ability to love, and appears to only be an opportunist. How is his realtionship with his children? His daughter especially. Is he truly exhibiting the love, care and support a father should? Or is he simply taking up space and paying bills????

      Yes Reagan’s Mom you hit it right on the head. He is an opportunist and in my opinion incapable of real love.
      He loves his kids but again it has to revolve around him. He wants them to like and do the things he wants them to do. If it isn’t he doesn’t show much interest. He thinks men should take care of boys and women should take care of girls. Meaning, he’s hands off with his daughter. He’s there to discipline. With the kids there is also a “popularity contest” in play. He likes when the kids choose him over me which means he involves them in our arguments because they are on his “side”. No matter how many times I try to explain parenting to him it doesn’t click. Someone told me before, you can’t reason with an illogical person.
