She’s my ally. She’s also Exhibit A.
Turns out loyalty has fine print.

Not every silence is rejection. Sometimes it’s just… peace.

I’ve said the wrong things. Reacted poorly.
But I’m not here to be flawless — I’m here to be clear.
I’m holding the pen now.
No more letting others tell my story.

The wife. The other woman.
Women aren’t always innocent.
Sometimes, we hold the pen that ruins the story too.

But now I understand:
To grow old is a blessing.
Not everyone gets to.
Not my father. Not the people we’ve lost too soon.
He never saw retirement. Never saw peace.
I hope he’s somewhere better now.

They don’t know how hard I fought to burn my rage down to embers.
They don’t know I’ve survived worse — myself.
I’m not a chihuahua.
I’m a fucking wolf.

Burnt out, overworked, and pushed past my limit. Mistakes happens.
They don’t see the exhaustion.
They don’t see the weight.
They only see something to pick apart.

Fine print isn’t just for contracts. It should be for personalities too.
From lovebombers to compulsive liars, to men who couldn’t pick a lane — I dated them all.
