My life is like a cheap TV series. I got married 7 years ago to a man I don’t love. Many years ago I was very fond of a young man, he was a sailor. We dated for 2 years. One day he came back and his wife was with him. My heart was broken, and in desperation I agreed to marry my best friend. I thought that then my beloved would realize whom he had lost. But the opportunity did not present itself-my ex and his wife moved to another city. I was already pregnant from my husband.
At first, my husband was very reverent towards me. From year to year, his jealousy grew with unprecedented strength. We had constant quarrels on this basis. My husband did not forget and constantly reproached me for non-existent feelings. Although I never loved my husband, I was always faithful to him and grateful for everything he did for me and our son. My friends always praised my husband. My parents loved him. But a year ago, his impudence reached the point where my husband cheated on me and admitted it himself. But for the sake of my son, for the sake of our entire journey, I forgave him. A month ago, I stayed late at a friend’s house. When I returned, my husband was in a bad mood.
As it turned out, he had met my ex-boyfriend in the city and decided that I had stayed late with him. During a verbal altercation, the man raised his hand at me. I couldn’t stand it any longer and filed for divorce. Now I live with my son at my friend’s place. My husband first sought my forgiveness with gifts, and now he threatens me. He promises that if I do not withdraw the application for divorce, he will take my son away from me. What if he really sues me for the boy? I won’t survive that. Maybe I should withdraw the application and try again to save my family? What should I do now?
