They say love makes you blind, and I was a perfect example. When my husband, Kyle, claimed he was sick and had to quit his job, I trusted him completely and worked harder to support our family. I believed every word he said until a stranger warned me to check where he was going for his “treatments.”
Life as a mom to my two boys, Liam and Jake, was everything I wanted, and Kyle had always been my rock.
But when I discovered his bank statements showed no medical expenses—only charges for restaurants and luxury items—I realized he was lying. Following him to a bar, I overheard him bragging to friends about deceiving me.
That night, I took action. I froze our joint account, paid off our mortgage, and packed my things. I moved in with my parents and filed for divorce. It hurt to know the man I loved had betrayed me, but I learned that love should never blind you to the truth. Now, I’m focused on rebuilding my life with Liam and Jake, knowing our future is brighter without the lies.
