I love to read your stories but I am always sad at the treatment you received because I’m pretty sure all women in your position are treated that way. “Friends” have to take sides when a split comes down but I never understood why. I just remember in my parents group it was always the man they sided with because he paired up with another woman very fast and you had to be a couple to be part of the group. I saw an ugliness that was so obvious. Thanks for sharing your life like you do. You stories teach lessons.
