We were sleeping in separate rooms.
There was no affection.
No intimacy.
My husband and I were already done.
We just hadn’t admitted it out loud yet.
There was just this dry, stale, energy hanging in the air.
So I didn’t get him anything for Valentine’s Day.
Why would I? 🤷♀️
We weren’t that kind of couple anymore.
Then he came home… with a gift for me.😬
And something in my body panicked.
While he was in the shower, I grabbed my keys, drove across the street to Target, and bought him a Valentine’s gift.
❌ Not because I wanted to.
❌ Not because it meant anything.
But because I didn’t want to look like the bad one.
That moment wasn’t about love.
It was about fear.
Fear of conflict.
Fear of being the bad one.
Fear of telling the truth, even to myself.
And that’s when I learned something I wish someone had told me sooner:
👉 Most women don’t file for divorce because of one big moment.
👉 They file after YEARS of tiny moments where they abandon themselves.
Buying the Valentine’s card.
Saying “it’s fine.”
Keeping the peace.
Performing normal.
Valentine’s Day is often the loudest mirror.
Not because of flowers or chocolates…
But because your body knows when love is gone, long before your mind catches up.
If you FELT this story WHOLEHEARTEDLY, this is your invitation.
Before you hire a lawyer.

Before you make decisions from panic, guilt, or pressure…
You need regulation. 🤍
You need clarity.
You need a strategy rooted in self-trust, not survival.
