Maybell XVIII

[Card29]

I can't speak for Maybell's H. I can't imagine ever behaving like that, either. But I have witnessed a couple of GREAT dads turn into different people after A/S/D. For one in particular, who has 4 kids, he had an A, was kicked out and D'd by W (my cousin). He then went into MLC mode for a few months, grew his hair out, bought a motorcycle, etc. He didn't see the kids. At some point, he noticed how much his kids were hurting, suffering in school, misbehaving. But instead of coming back to them, he retreated even further. I've assumed it was out of guilt. Some of it may have been from insane anger from my cousin...she would key is car when he came around, throw shoes at him, etc. Of course he could have taken legal steps so he could see his kids without interacting with his XW. It took him 8 years to begin seeing them again, though. I pray that Maybell's WAH doesn't turn into that deep of a jerk, especially since she is not behaving like my cousin.
