Happily Ever After’ Goes to Hell

My friend’s nightmare marriage to a teacher who’s way too friendly…

Girls, grab a seat and buckle up, because this story makes soap operas look like episodes of Sesame Street. My friend Sarah, this amazing 26-year-old living in Canada, is stuck in a mess you wouldn’t believe.

Sarah got married less than a year ago to Tom, a 32-year-old teacher who seemed like a saint. Well, forget that. The guy turned out to be a total scumbag, and not the funny kind you see in movies.

It all started when Tom began paying a lot of attention to an autistic student and her mom, Cynthia. Sarah, bless her heart, thought it was sweet at first.

“How nice, helping out a single mom,” she thought. Little did she know what was coming. You know how it is, right? We always think these things only happen to other people.

Things got really ugly when Cynthia went through a rough patch. Tom, playing the Good Samaritan, started visiting her in the hospital every day. And that’s when everything went south. Sarah started noticing weird changes in her husband’s behavior. He’d get all snippy when she asked about the visits, became more critical of her… You know the signs, don’t you?
