Lately I have been tempted to leave everything and go far, to South Africa or Australia. Take off my wedding band, start afresh, pretend none of this happened.
Wow, really? I have to admit, I have never once thought that myself. It actually turns my stomach to think that someone could be so selfish as to do something like that when they have a child.

LOL! What color is the sky in this make-believe world you live in? Because in THIS world, your son will grow up to hate the father that skipped out on him. It will affect him deeply, he will probably act out in school and at home and be highly unstable. Then when this no-show father suddenly contacts him after 10 years he will be furious at him for just suddenly popping back in. The reunion will be short and bitter and the son will tell this stranger who claims to be his father that he never wants to see him again. That's how I see it playing out.
