Oh, didn’t you know? 

i am a gold digger

because

I wanted to lose two amazing jobs,

empty my bank account,

leave my mom with payments on my new car,

fly to another country,

only to have my marriage belittled, minimized, and called ‘uncouth’,

told the marriage was over via text message once I had flown 13+ hours to get here, 

have the USA Visa I worked so hard for him, ripped up in my face because he wanted to be with his new girlfriend, 

be put out on the street like trash,

be spoken to like I’m a naive girl who didn’t ‘get it’,

and the list goes on.

Now I’m getting names called out at me like I’m the first  woman trying to vote. 

I know you don’t care for details but I’ve kept a lid on it all for a long time. I’m just tired of being forced to second guess myself or justify my actions. I’m doing what’s right for me. Joe and his people don’t like it and, well, they can all kiss the entirety of my asshole.

I’ve come back swinging just like my family and friends knew I would. Joe and his flunkies didn’t. 

whoops.
