She felt he deserved it – her infidelity, disloyalty, her extramarital affair. She felt like that more strongly on days when he was unusually apathetic and cantankerous. She despised him for neglecting her relentlessly, as if she didn’t exist, and every time he spoke through gritted teeth, she despised him a little more. A husband’s biggest mistake is giving another man the opportunity to make his wife smile. He deserved it, he really deserved it. It is a bigger mistake than being an imperfect wife and an unideal daughter-in-law.

So easy to blame others and dismiss our own failings. Good story.

Perhaps if she'd smiled at her husband, he might have smiled back. They deserved each other. Comments are closed.
