Diamond Heart 💎 by bellamerce

------- He loved the girl that can't love him.....And now he can't love the girl that loves him -------- ** "Don't worry.." I say, getting up off the chair and walking around him on my way out, my scarf running through his fingers lightly until it slips out. He tilts his head back over the back of his chair in a lazy laid back way, his thumb and fingers now holding his chin, as he watches me leave, still with a small smile on his face. "I won't break your heart." I turn around and say lightly, jokingly, just to tease him. His smile fades. "You won't...because you can't break what's already broken." He says more seriously. ******* Once bitten, twice shy Such is the case for Aaron Bishop, who after a failed marriage, decides that love and all things related, is not worth the trouble. So he moves forward with his future, making sure that no woman is unclear about his intentions about love, or carries any hopes of marriage and happily ever after..that is not in his destiny.

The Psychology of a Struggling Man by xshadma1

Ethan Hayes once believed he had it all-success, family, and a future full of promise. But at 40, he's a man on the edge. His career has crumbled. His marriage is unraveling. His connection to his children is fading. And the man he thought he was-his identity, his purpose-seems to have disappeared. Haunted by mistakes, trapped in guilt, and lost in a spiral of self-doubt, Ethan's world is collapsing from within. Every day feels like a new battle against an enemy he can't see but knows is there: himself. The question isn't whether he can rebuild his life, but whether he can face the truth about who he has become. As Ethan navigates the wreckage of his past, he begins to ask himself: Can a man truly change when everything he's built has been shattered? And if so, what will he have to lose in the process? In this unflinching journey into the mind of a man in crisis, The Psychology of a Struggling Man explores the emotional cost of living a life defined by external expectations. It's a story about identity, redemption, and the haunting question of whether we can ever forgive ourselves. How far must we fall before we can rise again? And is there anything left to rise for?
