On New Year’s Day, my husband suddenly asked for a divorce.
I smiled and agreed without hesitation, even giving up custody of our two children, because I knew he was about to lose more than just a wife.
As the holidays drew to a close, my husband suddenly brought up divorce.
I readily agreed and even gave up custody of our two children.
On the night of December 28th, as Michael pushed the divorce agreement in front of me, the beef stew he loved was still simmering in the kitchen.
Our two children were in the living room watching cartoons, their laughter seeping through the crack in the door.
His expression was as calm as if he were discussing what to get at the grocery store tomorrow, not ending our 12-year marriage.
“Kate, let’s get a divorce.
I’ll take the two kids.
The house is yours, and I’ll give you another $100 in compensation.”
He said the words flowing so smoothly and naturally that it was obvious he had rehearsed them many times.
I picked up the pen and signed my name on the agreement without even looking at the specific clauses.
“Fine.
All I want is my freedom.”
Michael was stunned.
All the persuasion, explanations, and reassurances he had prepared were now useless.
He would never know that I had been waiting for him to say those words for three whole years.

Roasted chicken, mashed potatoes, and sautéed green beans with garlic.
