Romance
My husband, Caleb Jones, and I both had our issues. I was possessive, while he liked seeing me angry.He said emotion was proof of love. You only got angry when you loved someone.So he was always doing things just to get under my skin.I hated that he stayed in touch with his first love, Maya Stone. He went and arranged for Maya to work directly under him.I repeatedly told him they were not to meet in private. He went on a date with her anyway, then made a point of telling me about it.I couldn't stand the smell of cigarettes clinging to Maya. He brought her home to stay with us for an entire week, making me smell it every single day.I flew into a rage. For the first time, I said I was leaving.Only then did Caleb panic. Desperate to win me back, he stood in the pouring rain all night and said, "I'm sorry," ten thousand times before I finally forgave him.I warned him not to pull anything like that again. If he did, I would never forgive him.But on the day of our family gathering, he still brought Maya with him. He even openly introduced her to my parents."Mom, Dad, this is my ex-girlfriend, Maya Stone. From now on, the three of us are going to live together. We'll get along just fine, right, honey?"Caleb looked at me expectantly, waiting for me to get angry and lose control all over again, for the intensity of my reaction to prove just how deeply I loved him.But this time, I saw my parents red-faced with anger and my in-laws smiling broadly.Suddenly, all my anger vanished, and so did my love for him.Right there, I scheduled an appointment to file for divorce and calmly told him,"No. Three's a crowd. We're getting a divorce. You can go live with her."
