Painful Irony

He said, "for all of those years, I wasn't happy with myself and it kept me from finding happiness with you and the kids. I've spent the last year working on myself and I like the new me. Now all I want is to find happiness with my family."

All of those years, I was happy with myself and I tried to find happiness with him. I've spent the last year without him but I have failed to move forward because I remained committed to a dysfunctional and damaged relationship against my better judgement. I don't feel very good about myself these days and I suspect that it will prevent me from finding happiness with my family.

Ironic don't you think?
