Dictation: Sister Zhou
01
Once, I thought that love was the strongest fortress in life, able to withstand all the storms. However, when I really faced the trials of life, I realized that not all love can stand the test of time.
My ex-husband and I were in free love back then. At that time, we were full of youth and full of longing for the future. Although my parents have always opposed us, believing that my ex-husband's family conditions are too poor and the burden is heavy, I firmly believe that the power of love can overcome everything.
At that time, I naively thought that as long as I had love, all the problems in life would be solved. However, the reality is always harsh.
After we got married, our lives weren't as good as I imagined. We often quarrel over trivial matters in life, and our feelings gradually crack. Especially in the face of life embarrassment and difficulties, I began to feel dissatisfied and complain about my ex-husband.
I don't feel like he's capable of giving me a better life or satisfying my material needs.
It was at this time that a rich man came into my life. He was handsome, golden, and unrelenting when it came to spending money for me.
Gradually, I was attracted by his gentleness and thoughtfulness, and began to shake my originally firm heart. I told myself that this was the love and life I wanted.

So, I decided to divorce my ex-husband. When my ex-husband and I made this request, my ex-husband was shocked. He begged and begged, hoping that I would change my mind for the sake of the child's young age.
But I had been bewitched by the rich man and turned a deaf ear to my ex-husband's pleas. Eventually, we went down the path of divorce.
After the divorce, I breathed a long sigh of relief because I finally got rid of the days of breaking a penny in half.
I thought I would live the life I dreamed of, but it wasn't.
The rich man didn't treat me as well as I imagined, and he didn't divorce me because he was just playing with my feelings.
So, in the three years after the divorce, I didn't have a good time. I wandered among men, but I never found my home.
In the dead of night, I think of the time I spent with my ex-husband. Although we were poor at that time, we loved and supported each other. But now? I have lost him, and I have lost the happiness I once had.

One day, I inadvertently opened my ex-husband's circle of friends. I saw him post his wedding photo, and the other party was an ordinary-looking woman. But they all had happy smiles on their faces.
I clicked on the comments under the photo and saw that my ex-husband wrote: "I'm glad to have met you in the vast sea of people, and I will definitely cherish the love between us." ”
This sentence pierced my heart like a needle. I remember saying something similar to my ex-husband when I was with him.
Looking at this familiar sentence, my heart was sour.
If I could bravely face the trials of life and bear the ups and downs of life with my ex-husband; If I could cherish the love between us and not be deceived by material things, maybe we wouldn't be like this now.
It's a pity that there are no ifs in life, and everyone's choices will bring different results.
I chose to flee and pursue material fulfillment, only to end up losing my true happiness and love. The ex-husband chose to persevere and struggle, and finally reaped his own happiness and success.
I now finally understand that true love is not built on a material basis, but on the basis of mutual understanding, mutual support, and common struggle. Only when we bravely face the trials of life can we truly have our own happiness and love.
Write at the end:
Chen Guo once said: "How lucky you have to be in this life to be able to meet a gentle person." ”
So, a lot of regrets are self-inflicted.
No matter what time it is, the sweet words of outsiders are not as beautiful as the person who has always been by your side. The person who loves you will always love you, and the person who doesn't love you, even if you give more, he will not be moved.
Therefore, I hope that each of us will stick to our bottom line when facing feelings, and do not change ourselves because of the lies of outsiders.
