This is actually one of those moments in my life I remember a little too vividly. I was four months pregnant, and cigarette smoke (among a myriad of things) made me extremely nauseous. I was a smoker but stopped when I found out I was pregnant and never started again.
After 20 years of marriage, my ex and I were at a concert with a couple we considered best friends. They were both in our wedding, as we met at their wedding.
I knew my marriage was over after my ex-wife started saying stuff to me that no wife should. She went as far as telling me I was useless and worthless.
