Sixteen years together. Eleven years married. The start was beautiful, but somewhere along the way everything shifted. The love turned into something toxic, something heavy. I kept trying to fix it, trying to hold on, but deep down I knew I should’ve walked away sooner. Instead, I stayed, and all it brought me was heartache, pain, and regret. Sometimes the hardest truth is admitting the decision you thought was right ended up being the one that hurt you the most.
