The Reason She Finally LeftI saw this video of a young woman explaining why she left her husband after so many years together. She said her marriage to him was horrible. He was a narcissist and an abuser. Their marriage lasted for some years. I’m not sure how many. But she suffered years of abuse and unhappiness. Some of her friends and family probably wondered why she was staying with him. But she shared what event made her snap. She said they were at a restaurant with their friends. They were at the bar having drinks while they waited for their table. She had to go to the bathroom so she excused herself and said she’d be right back. When she got back, they had all gone to their table, including her husband. BUT… he’d left her drink at the bar. That’s what made her snap. The selfishness and lack of care or concern for her. That one little misdeed was what did it for her. She left him and divorced him. Of course, it wasn’t just that incident. But for her it summarized what he thought of her. And it was over. This story reminded me of so many people who leave the church and some people thing it’s for a trivial reason when in fact it’s literally the last straw. So much has built up to that point, but any small incident can be the one thing that breaks it. And that’s totally legit! |
