Men - Are You Divorced or Split from Your Significant Other?

I'm divorced, I left a man who was crazy in love with me and who treated me like a queen.
He was even good to my mother. Everyone in my family loved him. So why leave him I hear u ask? It's weird, I left out of principle and high morals.
He loved me more then anyone I've ever known, but he was a utterly ruthless businessman.
He kept details of a lot of his employees so he could blackmail them if they ever wanted to quit. He was incredible arrogant beyond belief and spoke to ppl were weren't as wealthy as us as if they were inferior to us.
He never showed me this side of him in the first 6years we were together, or I'd of ran a mile.
But as soon as the cracks started to show and I realised I'd married a ruthless, sometimes outright dangerous man I was out of there.
He ruined me in the divorce to punish me for leaving.
What I've learnt from the whole experience is that I ignored tiny little gut instincts I had about him, coz he smooth-talked me and impressed my mother.
il always go with my gut instinct from now on, I could easily say it was his fault for changing on me.
But I closed my eyes to a lot of things because I 'didn't want to see them.'
So I'm to blame for wasteing his time too.
Going forward il trust my gut and not be led astray.
il never pretend to anyone that he didn't love me, or didn't treat me gd. Coz he did.
I def broke his heart when I left him, and as crooked as he was, belive it or not I regret breaking his heart, coz anyone that treats my mother wiv the respect he did will always hold a small part of my heart and respect.

I'm married for the 2nd time and happy. First wife and I had problems caused by both of us. She cheated and I ignored her working too much. Mutual

We're still together. We're happier than ever. Communication and compromise works wonders.

I mean I ain't perfect... but she would never admit fault or work on her issues...

He will not admit his issues and likes to make me appear crazy. Fine.. whatever. He wants to get back together, but i'm done. i don't know what is wrong with me, but whatever it is.. i'm still trying to figure it out. In the meantime i'm working on improving myself.
