"I'm sorry, Cara, you're a great person, but I think it's best if we are separated. I have my career ahead of me, my video-" "So your videos are more important than me?"

It's been a year after our marriage. I couldn't believe that he would choose his videos over me. I hoped we could work something out, but we couldn't. I didn't know after a couple of arguments he couldn't stand our relationship.

"I'm so sorry that I've been arguing with you lately. Please don't leave me." "It's not you, it's me. I have to go. I don't know if we can work this out."
"Can't we at least like.. not be like best friends, but like- tolerate each other?" I asked. He shrugged his shoulders and left without an explanation.

I couldn't believe this man. He would take his stupid video career channel thing over me. After all that we've been through, he would just leave? I would only need my friends and family. Not some weird man that makes videos for a living.
Anyway, he should just go and be a lawyer when he isn't making enough money, because he loves arguing.

"What? He said that?" My friend, Kaley asked. "Yeah.. he did." "I'm so sorry, Cara. You'll be okay without that weirdo," she said. "Thanks." "Cara, you are better than him. You have us and we will be enough instead of a crack head gamer," My other friend, Carley said.

I laughed. I still loved him and didn't think he was a "crack head gamer," but I was upset. He didn't give me much of an explanation. Why didn't he talk to me instead of leaving? We had our lives ahead of us and we made a commitment, or at least I thought we did.
It looks like the future will be just myself with my loved ones, and it will be enough for me.
