I have one single regret from my marriage, and that was not speaking up when I felt overwhelmed and needed help. We were newlyweds, and I had just given birth to our daughter.
I thought I had to be this super mom and wife, perfect in every way. To me, this meant doing all the child-rearing, housework and cooking while attempting to look like I just stepped off a Victoria's Secret runway.
Looking back, all I had to do was say the words to my ex-husband, 'I need help.' I know now that if I had communicated my feelings, we might have had a better chance at marital life.
I ended our marriage because it seemed like the only way out of the stressful life I had created. I was so bitter and angry towards a person who just could not understand why.
