22 years gone

[rooskers]

Found out from a friend some of the reasons she said she left me. Apparently I was a huge loser who never worked. It didn't matter I put her through college and was the primary bread winner for the first 5 years of our marriage. When she graduated and became a nurse I became the stay at home dad for the first 6 years of D life and it was the hardest thing I ever did. We both discussed it before I stayed home with D and it was a mutual decision because neither of us wanted to have her raised by strangers in a daycare. For the past 3 years I have worked full time but I didn't make nearly as much as XW because she had already been in her career for 17 years. Now she is telling all her new friends what a loser I was and that I should have been a provider and protector of the family. She lets f-bombs fly about me and apparently I have been manipulating D into hating her. I wish I never had to see or deal with her ever again.
