I look at my cat, she’s real. I look at the sky, looks real too. I look at my car, looks real. Mailbox, real. Stain on my favorite top, real. My marriage of 25 years, not real. He never was who I thought he was. He had a ‘full’ secret life behind my back which made him so unavailable in so many ways. At the time, I didn’t know it wasn’t real. Now I do, and for 25 years I gave my heart and soul to someone who wasn’t even real.
What’s your real?
Oh Nap I really feel your pain and sadness as I too didn’t know the man I married for 20 years. I believe in my heart that things will look up for us. At times we will feel very sad or angry with our situation but I have to believe it will turn around and we will only be a better person for this.
What is real is YOU!!!!!!

JacWell Nap, as I take a look around I see that my pups are real and love me unconditionally and honestly. Like you, I see that my car is real too. My family that will be here shortly is real and thank goodness I have their love and support (even though they have no idea about what is really going on…they think I caught him texting and e-mailing his ex-girlfriend and my Dad doesn’t even know that because he would kill him.) My job is real, my responsibilities are VERY real.
My worst NIGHTMARE is REAL!!
~ Shaken
My daughter’s real. And my love for her is real.
And I keep telling myself that old adage that as long as whatever I do, I do it out of love for her, not hatred for him, then it will be fine.
Therefore, all the actions I undertake out of love for her are real too.
Oh, my anger is real. Very, very real.
My dog eating everything I own is real, my beautiful children are real.
My sanity is real (I know that now – for the longest time I was insane)
My empty bank balance is real (I know that everytime I have to find money to pay a solicitor or a bill)
My friends are real and awesome
My lack of work and the recession that means 200 people are applying for every job is real
Appearing on internet TV today for the foodbank charity that I work for is apparently real but feels very surreal!!What is not real…
My marriage – hey -surely then there should be some sort of clause in a marriage contract – like a five year warranty – I ought to be given a replacement for free – I was seriously missold therefore ought to be getting compensation and a replacement that meets the original sales description no?
My husband doing the alpha.com course at my church – especially as he said nasty things about it being a cult – but – maybe just maybe that is real – God – let it be real please!For all of us, I pray for a reality that enables us all to be safe, happy, secure, financially OK with sufficient to live on and be debt free, for our children to not be adversely affected by the stuff that;s been happening around them and I pray above all for peace of mind and heart, for subsiding of anger to be replaced with resolve and strength as we move forward.
I pray too for miracles for the men that enables them to see as we have seen, to understand the hurt they have caused and for resolutions to this sickness that helps prevent other women having to join us here…
Well NAP,
I feel it too. Can’t look at 27 years worth of pictures. It wasn’t real. He wasn’t my love, my friend, my protector. The vows weren’t real. My friends weren’t even real.My three beautiful daughters are real
My love (even for him) is real
My anger is palpable/real too, readytoliveagain
Sadly, starving children and all kinds of global horrors are too real
The broken hearts on this site are real. But…God is real, too and the injustices and sorrow on earth have no place in his heaven
