I know being left by someone is something people go through everyday. I’m not special, not different so why should it not happen to me? It’s how it’s been done. I stood by him through so much, through his addiction to gambling and alcohol, through him hitting me. Always telling myself that it was his issues making him act that way and things would be okay in the end. It hurts to be told “see you tomorrow” and then him never coming home. The kids crying for him, asking when daddy is coming home, why won’t daddy talk to them. He’s taken his name from the bills, so left me with them all, with no job I’m not going to be able to pay them. I won’t be able to pay my rent. I’ll be evicted. It feels too much, I’m overwhelmed with everything. I see no way out. It gets harder each day rather than easier. I feel like I’m running out of time. Like he left knowing I would not survive, like he doesn’t want me to survive
