The Story

Its a Doozy.. so grab some coffee and perhaps a comfy chair.

Ok.. So I met Craig through my brother. it was my brothers 21st birthday and we were partying. So I had a boyfriend at the time and didnt think anything other then "oh this guy is cute for a bad boy not my type sort of way" So we started talking and after hours of conversing and many many drinks later we started making out (i know. it was wrong since i wasnt single. but i did call it off the next day with my then boyfriend) he stayed the night and we just never left eachothers side after that. We dated for about 2 months and he was still in the i want to party mode everynight and ended up cheating on me. So I dumped him and moved on. So fastforward a year and a half later.Im at work and I get a phone call from Craig which had me completely confused yet somewhat excited since i told him not to talk to me again but to just hear is voice was amazing. he was in Nevada working in the Mines and we talked the whole shift which was 12 hours. everything from why he cheated to what was new in our lives and the good ole times we had. he came back to Utah 3 days later and we met up for some drinks and talking and at that point I knew I loved this man. things moved kind of quickly after that i was living in Ogden. him in Salt Lake and i was tired of everynight driving out there to see him so we moved in together things were unbelievable then he started acting a little weird so I bailed before I got hurt and moved in with some roomates. I swung by and was getting the last of my stuff and bringing him some things for his mouth since he just had his wisdom teeth pulled i dont know if it was the loritabs talking or what but he asked me to marry him so. I said yes! an hour later we were driving to vegas and got married (boy was the family pissed off) things were fine and he was working at another job that made him travel all over the US for a month at a time So i quite my job and went with him.things didnt go so great since i HATE being in a car and for a month i was fighting with him at least once every other day. Then I found out I was pregnant. I wasnt happy and either was he since i never wanted kids and he already had a few from other woman and for hell sakes we were only married not even 3 months by that time. we grew excited once we heard the babys heartbeat and things were once again unstressed and blissful.And of course as our pattern has it it went back to shit quite soon. I found out he cheated on me. AGAIN.. i was pissed and i moved out and closer to the end of my pregnancy i took him back after all he was my husband and i was having a daughter him with. months go by we are new parents and its taking its toll.Im stressed since he quit his job right before i had our kid and then he decided i should work and hed stay home with the baby. we would fight. break up.. get back together and so on. finally late January rolls around and our daughter is 6 months old. plenty of hurtful things had happened in our relationship and i had enough so i told him he needed to move out since he was still acting like a single man when he wasnt around me. but then wanted to be a husband when he was around and very controlling too. mean words were exchanged and off he went little did i know he would move to Oregon to be with some girl he met off the internet . i was heartbroken. yes i didnt want him back at that point but i sure didnt think he could move on so easily since hell.. we were in love. forever no matter what. he wont talk to me. i dont really know exactly where he is so i cant serve him divorce papers the only thing i did hear from him was an email saying he wanted nothing to do with me or his daughter again. So I know its not my fault that we arent together and i really should be thankful he isnt around but it just hurts since i put so much into it and he put in so little. I really have nobody else to blame but myself. i cant even blame him. i let him do it. Im more heartbroken and upset for my daughter ok maybe for myself too. a year and a half worth of a marriage not to mention the time we spent just dating all for what? heartache and now jealousy? I always told myself if for some reason i DID get married I would never divorce since over half of the nation is and naive me thought love could keep anything together. I guess I learned my lession huh.
