Today was exhausting and I really donât know why. I just know I woke up extremely tired and my mind was scattered. I went to work and carried out my day.
I came home and cooked dinner. Then all of a sudden, my AS told me his mood was not good and that he was just put in a bad way. I followed him down to the basement to see if he wanted to talk about it. He refused, but I wouldnât back down. He grabbed me and hugged me so tight and just began to cry uncontrollably. He tried to suck it up and say he was OK..I repeated that crying is healing and he kept crying. His girlfriend had texted him some really negative things about him not being there for the kids at this time. In my opinion, I donât think that was a good thing for her to do. I know she understands what is going on with him and saying those things just donât help.
I began to talk to him and share some of my similar stories so that he could see things from a different viewpoint. Just hoping that he would not take her words so strongly. I explained that she is also in pain and that he needs to focus on his priorities of getting a grip on his own life so that he can be a much better father for his children.
I also shared scriptures that would help him understand God's desire for us. I told him to take it one day at a time and to be easy on himself.
He eventually stopped crying and told me thank you.
