As a mother of two, I, Hannah, had been looking forward to a relaxing trip to Mexico with my husband, Luke. However, Luke had been acting strangely from the start. He would always say, “I’m not in the mood,” or “Can we do it later?” when I asked him to take a picture with me. At first I thought he was just tired from his trip.
But from the way he behaved during the trip, I felt that something wasn’t quite right. “I tried to ignore it and focus on the positive aspects of life, but the feeling only got stronger over the next few days,” I said. I put how I was feeling into words: “walking on eggshells, never knowing when he would lash out at me next.”
But it wasn’t until we got home that I realized the shocking truth. You can only imagine how surprised I was to find out why he wouldn’t allow me to be in any photos with him, I continued. As it happened, there was something that Luke had been withholding from me that would change our relationship forever.
I was left feeling angry, shocked, and confused, wondering how I could have been blind to what was going on. I’m still trying to figure out what’s going on and how this could impact our future together.
