Sometimes I think that if the “other woman” knew that the “original woman” was really a person with a heart, a soul, and hopes and dreams that are tied up in the relationship she’s threatening, she would be a little less hot to trot.
I find myself wondering if this is a type of karmic retribution.
But it can’t be, because there are too many other problems… more than just some girl in another state who is “better” and “classier” than me (despite having been in multiple knock-out, drag-down, dial-911 fights with her currently incarcerated baby-daddy).
I’m thinking about having my mom drive up from Missouri tomorrow to come get me.
I would miss our cat and our friends. I’d miss the man for sure, despite everything. But I would be able to breathe again.

I don’t have any useful advice…no one would, as this is your situation and no one else’s. I just wanted to let you know that I’m still reading, and I’m very sorry you’re hurting.
I will say, however, that it’s completely clear that man doesn’t appreciate what he has, and you deserve a hell of a lot better.
She’s not threatening the relationship, he is. Call your mom. Don’t look back. Breathe.
Put yourself and your needs first. Take care of yourself. It may not feel like it right now but you worth it. Your mental health, emotional health, physical health are so worth it. Do what you need to do for you and don’t worry about anyone else. I’m thinking of you.
