You hackneyed insults do not faze me. They only show your own weakness.

I have intentionally gotten all of the xxxx-ups out of my system at a young age so as to avoid that very thing. I will not be having any mid-life crises.

I don't recall saying if you were or not. Your marriage was not justified to begin with, but at least you realized this early on, when you are young, as opposed to when you're older and you have kids to put in jeopardy.

She caused me to lose my own apartment. I have forgiven her and am now her friend, because I understand that she was not herself. Nonetheless, I could not stay married to her.

Look, I don't blame you for her actions, and maybe yes, she did deserve to be hurt in the process. But marriage for me is a sacred vow between two people that are in love, and taking it lightly is not a virtue in my book. That's what I was trying to say.

I was not her roommate. I have not and will never use any addictive substances. She took the marriage no more seriously than I did. She knew what she was getting into. We were both doing it for a thrill. If she got hurt, it's her own damn fault, and yes, she hurt me just as much.

Obviously, Anna, you have never been with a suicidal addict. One night, I had somewhere to go, and she forced me to stay with her by swallowing an entire bottle of Xanax, thereby making me stay with her to keep her awake so that she would not die. That was the last straw.
