It's always so hard when people assume someone cheated or broke up a marriage, when the truth may actually be much more complicated.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Anyone who's been through divorce will know that every day is really hard.
Many people from many different walks of life have marriages that break up, and those are deeply personal, deeply painful but ultimately private matters.
I went through a long period of time in that marriage when I didn't believe anything was my fault. I had to face what my part was, and only because of that difficult work was I able to trust a man again.
I don't think anybody whose ever been divorced can tell you divorce is easy or fun or feels like anything other than a tremendous failure.
I just feel like sometimes people don't want to hear the truth. It's hard when you hear the truth. People want to hear what they want to hear. Sometimes I have a hard time with that because I'm very honest.
Breakups are hard for anybody, and no matter how it happens or ends up, they're just hard.
Everyone knows that when you go through a divorce, it's a really difficult time for both parties and you've all - you believe, you both believe, individually, that you've put your best into it.
No matter what you go through, if it's the truth, 9 times out of 10, somebody else has been through the same thing or is currently going through the same thing.
Once you start lying, you get kind of comfortable. You start believing it. Especially if you truly believe you didn't really cheat because you were doing what everybody else was doing.
It's a lot easier to tell the truth usually.
