***

Before now, I never really thought of how common it was for a woman to raise a child on her own. Sure, I’d grown up with a single mother, but that was a situation that my mother chose to put herself in. She wasn’t forced into it. She wasn’t dumped like I was. I had never pictured this for my life. I’ve always envisioned myself having the perfect little family. The husband, the son, the daughter, and the dog. Unfortunately, I didn’t have as much control over my own life as I would’ve liked. My current situation had called for me to open my eyes and my mind. I had come to realize that not only did Marcus’ decisions put me here, but so had mine. I understood that I was not completely innocent in this situation. That I had assisted him in hurting me. I overlooked all of his character flaws. 

His indiscretions. 

His indecisiveness when it came to me. 

How – unimportant he made me feel at times. 

I didn’t demand that he respect me. Therefore, he felt as though he didn’t have to. I didn’t hold him to any standards. I was just happy to have him. 

How pathetic is that? 

I was so happy to have a man, so happy to be able to say that I was in love. I accepted whatever he decided to give me. And in accepting his semblance of love, I lost myself. I became the girl that was so used to being mistreated that it just wasn’t that big of a deal for me. It wasn’t a deal-breaker anymore. I was undervalued, and I learned to say; it’s fine, or I’m okay with it instead of realizing my own worth.
