When did "I do, "become" I don't anymore?" When did I cease being your wife, lover, and best friend and become an object to the beaten and abused both mentally and physically?
When did you decide you hated me wo much that you had to cheat on me, trade my arms for those of another womans? Was it when I carried your child, or were you always that way and I just did not see?
