I abandoned my wife after eleven years of marriage because another woman made me feel young, exciting, and wanted again. I convinced myself that I deserved a better life than the one I’d built with my wife and our three children.
Two years later, my new relationship was over, my business had collapsed, and I had just eleven dollars left in my wallet.
Desperate and ashamed, I returned to the home I’d walked away from, believing my ex-wife might still have enough love for me to offer a second chance.
