Tried Our Best
Chapter 3
I grew up. I lost my way.
I blamed you for my failures.
We kept the reason our marriage fell apart private. From the outside world. Our friends. Family. It was simply alot easier to deal with that way.
If we were honest. It wasn't a single fight or encounter.
Really it was various things. That lead to everything falling apart.
It got to a point where we couldn't ignore it anymore.

More often then not. When it came to them.

They had their biggest tie the children. The shared history.
The two had dated other people since the divorce.
