This was a really bad situation, but the circumstances were extenuating. I was involved with a longtime friend I knew from childhood. He liked me for years. Anyway, I told him I didn't want a relationship, then married someone else.
At the time I didn't know what was wrong, but I've had a medical condition most of my life that was undiagnosed. I was really ill, and I knew something was wrong but couldn't put my finger on it.
The friend had just come back from living in another province for several years. My condition affected my ability to function in every way. He was just putting his life together here, and I was so ill that mine was falling apart. I was afraid I would become a burdon to him and complicate his life, and I didn't feel he would really be able to help me.
When I met my husband he said that he would support me in every way and he has. If it wasn't for him I don't think I would have been able to put my life back together.
