Excerpt:
Even believing that, knowing that, down deep in my soul, sometimes I would feel abandoned by him. Sometimes, he would shut me out. I started waiting for what I had come to convince myself was the inevitable. That he would leave me. I couldn’t just do nothing and wait for that to happen. I needed control. So I decided to push him out of my life instead by, among other things, sleeping with his girl of the moment. I knew he didn’t love her, even though he said he did. I mean, he couldn’t! It was an internal hell for me. I’d never seen him so mad. But instead of leaving me, transferring, asking for a new partner, like I thought he would have, like maybe some small part of me wanted him to, he stayed and looked into me with his soul-searching eyes and saw right through to what I was trying to do. To him and to us. I could see that he wasn’t going to be a pawn in this new game of mine. A game in which even I wasn’t sure of the rules or how to win. But I knew what the prize was.
