Honesty is such a lonely word ...
I went to meet a friend today. We decided to meet up at the Outlet Mall. We never talk seriously about love, life and family but, today was different.
It's dark when I arrived home yet, I decided to swim in the pool to relax my mind and I thought about my friend's situation.
She was married for 10 years now, no kids but, she has one from previous marriage. She never lied to her husband so; basically she thought all along that he holds no secret from her as well. She found out that the husband was married 3x before and that he has 2 kids, one from the first and second marriages. Apart from what he told her that he was married once and that he has one child. Why did he hold a secret from her? She really doesn't care, she told me but, why keep it as a secret? She found out later that the husband did not acknowledge the eldest child as his own. She asked me, "Why he had to lie?"
Maybe he did not told her because she would probably insist to go and find the child. He will not like it for sure. He doesn't like confrontation I bet.
My friend and I parted after 5 hours and I was sorry for not being able to give a sensible thoughts about all the "why's " . Of course, I can't give her a sensible answer ... only her husband holds the answer to all the "why's".
She will hold it as a secret until her husband will be ready to tell her.
I thought about my friend right now. She will never look at the husband the same ... ever again.
