Jeremy.<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

I didn’t notice the theft at first.<\/strong><\/em><\/span>
\nI was happy because Jeremy was happy.<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

He became as obsessed with my pregnancy as I was with him.”<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

……………………………………………………………………………………………………..<\/p>\n

“I had already feared becoming the mother of one baby.<\/strong><\/em><\/span>
\nBeing forced to love the one thing Jeremy loved more than me.<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

But when I found out there were two, and that they were girls, I was suddenly not ok with being the third most important thing in Jeremy’s life.”<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

……………………………………………………………………………………………………..<\/p>\n

“I shuddered daily at the thought of them both growing inside me, stretching my skin, ruining my breasts, my stomach, and god forbid the temple between my legs where Jeremy worshipped nightly.<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

How could Jeremy still want me after this?<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

During the fourth month of my pregnancy, I started hoping for a miscarriage.”<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

……………………………………………………………………………………………………..<\/p>\n

“I mean seriously, Jeremy.<\/strong><\/em><\/span>
\nDo men really believe women are that obsessed with sex?<\/strong><\/em><\/span>
\nIt was fiction!<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Of course I loved making love to you, but most of the time it was to please you because that’s what couples do for each other.<\/strong><\/em><\/span>
\nIt wasn’t because I couldn’t live without it.<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

You were a good husband to me and whether you believe it to be true, I was a good wife to you.<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

You’re still a good husband to me.
\n<\/strong><\/em><\/span>You believe in your heart that I murdered our daughter, yet you still ensure I’m taken care of.”<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n
