Relieved, believing we could start again, I finally paid off all of my husband’s debt after years of financial difficulty.

Staring at divorce papers
Sitting at the kitchen table, I spent what seemed like hours poring over the divorce paperwork. Every phrase seemed like a smack in the face—a betrayal.
Just a few weeks away was my 38th birthday, and here I was—right back where I began. To keep his aspirations afloat, all those sacrifices, long evenings of labor, and debts I had taken out—all help.
This was his thanks as well.
