| 0:00.0 | Hey, this is Angie. And this is Dakota, your favorite OK story time hosts. And we've got some |
| 0:04.7 | great stories coming up. But before that, we have a quick two-minute break from the sponsors that |
| 0:08.9 | keep this show running. This is an IHeart podcast. Guaranteed human. I stayed obedient for years |
| 0:17.4 | until one day I finally set myself free. Get out of there. And there is a trigger |
| 0:22.4 | warning for booze and substance mentions. My husband and I have been married for almost two |
| 0:26.5 | years, but together for almost 15. He is my only real long-term boyfriend I have had in my adult life, |
| 0:32.6 | and we have two children together. Looking back, honestly, our relationship has been rocky |
| 0:36.7 | from the very beginning. That said, the last three years had been pretty great. I felt like we had finally found a rhythm and some stability as a family. By the way, this comes from Suspicious Rock, 1661. And if you want to submit your own stories, go to the R.Slas OK, Storytime, Subbrit. I'm Sophia. I'm Carly carly i'm keon and we're here to give good advice |
| 0:55.4 | goofily but we don't have all the answers we really know what we'd do so let us know what you would do in |
| 0:59.3 | the comments the turning point happened after he got lackout wasted at his friend's wedding during the |

| 1:12.5 | home because I was sober. It was one of those moments that permanently shifts how you see someone, |
| 1:17.3 | even if you do not realize it at the time. After that incident, things did improve for a while. |
| 1:22.5 | I began working on myself in a real and intentional way. I lost weight, put more effort into my appearance, and made |
| 1:29.1 | new friends. I started to feel more confident and more like myself again, and for a period of time, |
| 1:34.9 | our relationship felt lighter and healthier. About five months ago, everything changed again. He |
| 1:40.0 | woke up one morning and told me he was not happy with his life or with me and that he wanted |
| 1:44.7 | to leave. That statement completely blindsided me. Shortly after, he decided he was wrong |
| 1:50.0 | and said he did not want to leave after all. I tried to move forward, but the instability never |
| 1:55.0 | stopped. Here is a highlight reel of the last five months. He has left me forward to five times |
| 2:00.0 | and returned each time apologizing. |
| 2:02.3 | It really is that. |
