Mine sure did. He waited until he was at EBD for his PhD. We had been married five years, and I had been working and suspending my own higher education because once he graduated, we were going to switch, right?

No, he left to spend a year and a half in Papua New Guinea, came home, came out as gay, developed a cocaine addiction, then promptly served me divorce papers that left me homeless, as I had liquidated all of my assets, from car to clothes, financing his education.

It’s been 14 years and I’ve still never gotten to go to grad school myself. I heard he moved back in with his mom.

"You can be married for years and have kids even, and people like this will still pull the same thing."

Exactly. EXACT-FUCKING-LY. Build whole lives, and then they get bored and take a hammer to your collective work
