John DelonyHost
Um, one of the biggest challenges after dealing with a major issue, right? Infidelity, bankruptcy, um, I, I would say anything that is, like, your marriage was, i- i- no longer, right? And now you're gonna rebuild a new one-
Absolutely
... is in defense or in support or as a part of the rebuilding process, also a pa- a key part of that to do that well is to not cash in your own integrity in the process.
In an effort to choose to stay with your wife, and it sounds like her, like there was never even a moment where you thought, "I'm gonna leave her for cheating on me," is that right?
That's right.
Yep.
Then you have to go to court, not because this man and his w- and/or his wife want to be in the life of this child, but they want to get it written down that they never have to be in the life of this child.
That's correct.
Which is ma- I can't even wrap my head around that, but that's a whole other call.
Um, and so in this process, you, and this, this is hard to hear, okay? So I'm saying this with love and care, right? You became a guy who l- doesn't tell his family the truth.
Yeah.
And so it's, it's her issue, her, her breach of trust, this, a- and I'm saying this consequence, who's also your daughter, right? So it's, it's not like, I don't want to dehumanize your daughter, but the consequence of her actions, which is creating human life with somebody else, that's, that's hers, and then she's gonna have to own what's, what does rebuilding trust look like? But then you became a guy who cashed in his integrity in order to keep the peace, keep things quiet, and all that kind of stuff.
Yeah
Yeah.
