No judgment? When I read that you were going to commit a B and E on your first date my first thought was “Oh, a side of my friend I didn’t know about before this”.
The human heart is a jungle, it’s all vines and forgotten temples. It’s incredible we don’t burn everything down all the time when our emotions seize control. Hard to blame someone for being human.
I love your raw honesty and introspective expressions. It’s unfortunate that you feel the need to write a footnote because no one reading your work should ever dare to pass judgment—not even in their minds. Life isn’t black and white, nor is the path we walk on ever straight.
Our souls grow with every decision we make, and what’s deemed good or bad is often determined by the consequences of our actions—and whether we’re at peace with paying the price. I commend you for baring your soul and allowing us to feel the depths of your heart while challenging us to practice empathy and embrace your humanness.
Thank you for sharing this piece. I enjoyed learning more about your journey.
Thank you Kristie for those kind words! I just know a lot of people have been hurt by infidelity. Things certainly are complicated and it feels really good to process them like this now that I’m far enough away and have learned so much about life. Definitely more to come on this part of my life.
You’re so welcome! Processing and sharing your experiences is incredibly powerful—not just for your own growth, but for others who might be navigating similar struggles. Your words have the ability to connect, inspire, and create understanding. I see you, I hear you, and I’m here for all the stories you’re ready to share. You are stronger and wiser for everything you’ve overcome. Keep shining.

The first of many crimes 🤣
The statute of limitations has expired for us both I hope!
No judgement here, enjoyed reading this Kerry.
Thank you so much.
