‘Either break up, or leave me alone’: Pregnant woman’s father dates younger woman who wants children, he refuses so she tries to live vicariously through her, she puts boundaries
Marriage is like a box of chocolates – chocolates that fade with time, that represent more than chocolate. Some are filled with caramel, they're sweeter than the others. Some are spoiled rotten and have flakey white dust accumulated on them. Some are just solid as a rock, and they're actually supposed to be like that. The point is that throughout the ebb and flow of years of marriage, you learn about yourself, your spouse, and life itself. There's no predictability for the future, but if you can rely on your spouse then it's already something.
Throughout the years, you may feel like your relationship with your spouse is changing, and it is. It's something we rarely talk about in art or media, but marriage is a long and arduous road that should have change involved.
In the story below, the protagonist is a pregnant woman. Her father is dating a younger woman who wants kids, but he's older and has already had children. Read the full story below.
