My estranged wife still can’t figure out why I left her. It keeps coming back to me that I she tells everyone I left her because of her weight gain and that I make her feel ugly. That’s not true at all.
The truth is that she threatened to kill me in front of our kid. That fact she used to punch me in front of our child is why I left. She would sleep all day, neglecting our kid. She lost her job for not showing up and I’d find her asleep with our kid not having gone to school or eating all day. I started going to work later in the day and arranged babysitting for our kid. Seriously, she would sleep until 6-7pm after going to sleep at 3-4am.
In addition to the threats she would insult me and berate me. I just grew tired of it and left, taking our child with me. For 1 year I recorded and documented everything. She denies it all of course, and claims I was the abusive one. But security cameras I placed in our house can show all that was never true. I took her abuse. My only suggestion was she seek medical help for her sleep patterns and weight gain. She refused. I spoke to her parents and they tried to get her to as well. She refused.
She then told everyone I ‘stole’ our child from her. I filed for custody and she never showed up to any hearings. The case worker reported at least 25 times she never showed up or returned calls. That’s how I got custody. If she showed up at least half those times she would have gotten 50/50.
We are officially divorced and now seeing a wonderful woman with morals, common sense, and she is excellent with my child. My ex can’t accept we are divorced and is saying I’m cheating and all sorts of wild accusations. No, I didn’t talk to any women romantically until that decree was stamped at the courthouse. My child is now thriving, going to school, eating right, gaining weight, and still sees her other set of grandparents and relatives because I’m not a complete a******. Mom right now, until she gets her act together, has a no-contact order. She is still obsessed that she will marry Pitbull one day.
