Too Late, Dr. Hall

For five years, I stayed by Vincent's side, enduring his coldness and hiding our relationship to protect his image as a single man. He refused to let our child call him "Dad," and in public, we were only coworkers. I kept compromising for our family until I returned home one day and saw another woman leaving his bedroom.

Years of hurt finally broke me. Since he cared so much about being single, I decided to let go and walk away.
