I have been married to my wife for a little over a year.
I have been with my boyfriend, "Robert," for 10 years.
For several years, I have gone to a medical specialist I’ll call “Eric” for certain issues.
Two and a half years ago we lost my dad, who was 94.
A friend, “Marie,” approached me in the parking lot after church, raising her voice, flailing her arms and saying three people had told her that I told them to stay away from her and her husband.
I met my boyfriend online last year.
My husband of 30 years has always made me feel like I wasn’t good enough for him.
I became engaged to a wonderful man five months ago.
Fifteen years ago, I “ran away from home” to get away from my adult children, and I finally made a life for myself.
I have been married for five years.
