The Days I Loved And Lost

December 16 2006 was the start of something new. That was the day I met my husband who is now my ex husband. I was 18 at the time and country dancing was my favorite thing to do on a saturday night. The Dance Factory was a place to go and dance the stress of my life away. I met my husband through a mutual friend that I went to school with for 2 or 3 years. I thought my husband was cute and a good dancer and I was extatic when he asked me to slow dance for the first time. By the end of the night we exchanged numbers and went on our first date to see a movie on Dec. 19th and at 1 am still outside of the movie theater we shared our first kiss. Well we dated for 2 months when he proposed to me on February 18th 2007 on top of the airport hill overlooking the city(which was one of my favorite places, especially at night). In August of 2007 I found out I was pregnant and on September 18th 2007 we were married. Well life was great until I started having a hard time with the pregnancy. On March 12th 2008 my son was born at 2:30 in the afternoon and it was an amazing day. Well life was good until my husband decided he wanted to join the Marine Corps. He left on September 22nd 2008 and I had to pack up our house alone to move in with my parents because I couldnt afford the payment. He was gone for three months and it was the worst time of my life! I missed him terribley and felt so alone. On top of that I was raped at a halloween party, I felt so dirty. December 2008 my husband graduated boot camp and I was so glad to have him home and spent as much time as I could with him. When he had to go back for training I went down to california every weekend to see him for a whole month. My husband ended up being discharged from the Marines through the red cross because his mother had Breast Cancer and wasnt going to live much longer. When he got home we did great until he started drinking a lot and doing spice, and when I wouldnt continue to do it with him because I had responsibilities he started flirting with other women. We tried to work things out but he was to far gone and all we did was fight so I left, I walked out and took our son. We were gonna try to work things out but I dont think he really wanted to be attatched to anyone. So we went through with the divorce. Well enough said for now I will tell the messy story of the divorce another day.
