I Pulled the Trigger on Myself
Two Failed Bullets, One Shattered Life
Life rarely follows the script we write for it. Sometimes, we’re thrust into the lead role of a tragedy we never asked to star in. This is the story of a man who found himself at the epicenter of an emotional storm so devastating it nearly swallowed him whole.
Imagine waking up every morning next to the person who promised to love you forever. Imagine dedicating yourself to them, body and soul, believing your love was invincible. Now, imagine discovering it was all a lie.
That’s how it began. A suspicion, a furtive glance at an unattended phone, and suddenly, his world turned upside down. His wife, the woman he’d give his life for, was involved in an affair with her boss.
The initial shock gave way to searing pain. How does one recover from such betrayal? How do you trust again after something like this?
Still, he tried. God knows he tried. He gave her a second chance, believing the love they shared was stronger than one mistake. How naive of him, right?
But suspicion is like cancer. It grows silently, consuming everything in its path. And so, on a night when doubt was eating him alive, he gave in to the impulse to check her phone again.
