Looking back on it now, I see why.

And I don't blame her.

You know, taking medicine that you didn't need and all that, I'm sure, played a major role in it.

We had started growing apart.

Me and Jessica.

But I'm one of those people that I would stick around.

You know, I'm going to be there for my kids.

And I just noticed little things that weren't adding up.

Before the kids.

She was big on being married before the kids were born.

So I found out, I want to say it was April, that she was pregnant, and we were married in June.

Like I said, I look back and I play a part of not being in the right mindset on that because nowadays I would have never done that.

But I was right along with, hey, I'll do what, you know, I'm on board.

I'm all in.

And I said, so down the road, I started noticing some, you know, things, like I said, little things not adding up.

We weren't getting along as much.

And I noticed that she would lay around.

I'd come home and clean the house.

I'd come home and cook dinner.

I was doing the laundry and it was the more and more that I was working, the more and more it was frustrating me because it was like, hey, I'm working.
