Like the people who don't. negative reactions to my divorce or, you know, they, when I say negative reactions, usually it's them assuming something happened that didn't and, you know, placing a store on, on my life.

Oh, I think, I mean, one, I think in general is just the assumption that like there was cheating and, And like, what other reason could there have been? And not to say I would stay with someone who cheated, but I'm like, there are worse things to do to a person than in a marriage and cheating. You're living your life with someone. Like, there are other things that are more important.

I think that was like the biggest thing that irked me was was people assuming that, like, one of us must have cheated. And also, after the fact, the money situation, which I'm not... money is such a dirty word to so many people, but if you work hard, you're making money.
