“That was the beginning of the end. I could never be with someone who could be so scared of living life.”

Their Partner Degraded Them

“She would verbally abuse me in front of other people. She made fun of every choice I made– whether it be what I ate, what jokes I told, or what words I used to form a sentence. But then, when we would get home, she was an angel.”

“I put up with this behavior for five years. I am glad I learned to stand up for myself and broke it off.”

“Four months later, I found my current wife, and we are living happily ever after.”

She Was Impatient

“We were stuck in traffic, and she threw an absolute hissy fit. We were only going to be home fifteen minutes later than we thought. She acted like her life was ending just because we were slightly delayed.”
