I Am A Broken Person

As many of you know i am, or should i say was, happily married. All that came crashing down in this past week. I learned my wife was having an affair and refused to end it.


That put me in the position of either I could leave her, or stay and be hurt for possibly the rest of my life. Either way i get hurt severely. So I had to be a man and tell her that we are not going to work out. I did that earlier today and I learn he has seen parts of her only i should be seeing. Unlike most i do not get mad but just sink further into the sadness and brokenness i am currently feeling.


It is then that she tells me that she still loves me and i just sink to me knees and a major part of me just dies right there. I cannot deny the fact i still love her. Yet she obviously does not love me or have the courage to admit it. So currently I am just sitting here, completely broken and hurt, writing this article to keep myself somewhat sane.


I cannot accept that God would let this happen so at this point i am almost to the point of denying his existence. If he would let this happen to me among the many other things that have gone wrong in my life then he cannot care for us as individuals. It is that simple.


The one good thing that has happened to me has been destroyed and a piece of it has pierced my very soul. I am sorry that this is not like my other articles but i cannot think about anything else besides this single topic. Pursue knowledge in order to see the signs to avoid hurt like this. I wish i would listen to my own advice. I will end this article before ruining your day.


I am not in any way a danger to myself or others so please do not worry about me. I just need some time to figure out myself before trying to make it work with another person.

6 Unrealistic Expectations Society Has For Young Adults

Don't let the thesaurus-inspired vocabularies in our résumés fool you. We're actually just big kids.

Well over four feet tall and 100 pounds in weight, many of us "young adults" of the world still consider ourselves children. Big, working, college-attending, beer-drinking children. We may live on our own, know how to cook noodles, and occasionally use a planner, but don't be fooled; the youthful tendencies that reside within us still make their way into our daily lives. From choosing to stay up until 3:00 a.m. playing video games on a school night to going out in 30 degree weather without a coat, we still make decisions that our parents and grandparents would shake their heads at in disappointment. So why are we expected to know exactly how to be a wise, professional, sensible adult? It's not that we're irresponsible (for the most part, anyway). It's that we are young, inexperienced, and still have the sought-after, enthusiastic mentality that we can do and be whatever we want, which has not yet been tarnished by the reality of the world. These are just a few of the unrealistic expectations that society has for young adults.

There are a lot of foods in this world, but there is only one dish that stands above the rest: Pizza. If you're close to me or at least know who I am, then you know that I'm totally obsessed with pizza. It's one of my favorite things to eat and I will NEVER turn down a slice, even if it doesn't have my favorite toppings. There isn't a day that goes by where I'm not thinking about pizza. I even sleep with a pizza pillow every night! There are many reasons why pizza stands above all other foods, and here are just a couple reasons why.
