A year after the divorce, I met my ex-husband with my son, and my son called Mom, and I hugged my head and cried!
Love is like a flower blooming on the edge of a cliff, and you have to be brave to pick it. Affection is one of the hardest things to give up, and this emotion often makes people feel both love and resentment.
My name is Zhou Jing and I have been divorced for a year. When I was with my ex-husband, he kept promising that he would love me for the rest of my life. I thought he was the one I could spend my life with, but it turned out to be unexpected and we ended up parting ways because of a woman.
A year after I gave birth to my son, my ex-husband quit his job in the county town and came to help his cousin run the restaurant. My cousin is a distant relative of mine, and after the divorce, I have been looking for a suitable partner, but it is difficult to find him. Then she actually found my ex-husband.
The ex-husband started working with his cousin, and the whole person seems to have become often not coming home and busy with restaurant affairs. He seems to have completely forgotten about our mother and son, and always rushes to the scene at the sound of his cousin.
After years of patience, I finally couldn't bear this life. Despite the increase in my ex-husband's income, I felt a loss of dignity. What I can't tolerate the most is that he treats my cousin even better than I do. Although I knew nothing would happen between them, I was still uneasy in my heart.
When my son was five years old, I filed for divorce from my ex-husband. I want him to experience first-hand what it's like to take care of a child on his own. I didn't fight for custody of my son, and I moved out of that house after the divorce. I miss my son a lot, but I understand that since the moment of divorce, I no longer want to have anything to do with my ex-husband.
One noon a year later, I went to the supermarket alone to shop, but I met my ex-husband and son on the way. My six-year-old son recognized me at a glance and couldn't wait to pounce on me, calling out to his mother. I couldn't resist my son's emotion, and I crouched on the ground and cried loudly.
I'm not sure if I made the right decision. My ex-husband told me that he no longer runs a restaurant with his cousin and is no longer looking for other jobs. He asked if we could start over, and I didn't answer directly. Because I don't know what to choose.
Facing my son's innocent eyes, as a mother, I can't let go. But when I think about my ex-husband's attitude towards me in the past, I get tired of that family. How do I choose? Do you really want to go back to the family that made me miserable?
