What she was likely disappointed to find out was that Paul suffered from rheumatism and was a heavy drinker with a bad reputation around town.

Okay.

So also, Halliday still lived with his two adult sons, and one of them was a person with cognitive disabilities, which apparently annoyed Lizzie.

That checks that she would be annoyed.

Which, like, doesn't shock me that she would be annoyed by that.

But it should be shocking.

It should be.

Now, despite the fact that nearly everyone in Paul's life was, like...

Don't get close to this lady.

He was like, I think I'm going to get close to this lady.

Especially his children who hated her.

Oh, what are you doing, Paul?

Paul proposed to Lizzie for not long after having met her.

And on March 26, 1891, they married.

You know what?

From first-person experience, don't marry somebody your kids don't like.

Just don't do it.

That's shitty.

Yeah, not surprisingly, it didn't take long before Lizzie fell into the usual pattern of domestic abuse.

And it's domestic abuse like she's abusing them.
