I should have left before I married him

I didn't want to marry him. I said it clearly- to my parents. Everyone around me had already decided that the marriage was happening. He wasn't affectionate even before the wedding. He barely called. And when he did, it was usually about something practical -money , wedding expenses, what my family was giving, what I was earning. Never “How are you?” I remember thinking, “Maybe marriage will change all this .”Honestly, I didn't even believe that. I used to get scared when I saw his name - I dnt know why but there was some fear. He always ask “Did you speak to your father about the money?” That was usually it. Sometimes I would just sit there quietly after the call ended. Thinking, “Is this really the man I'm supposed to spend my life with?”

How did this story make you feel?
