For the past six years, I’ve worked hard to blend my family with my wife Amanda (42F). I have two kids from my previous marriage, Liam (17M) and Sage (15F), who I’ve seen every other weekend and on Wednesdays due to a court arrangement. Amanda and I also share two daughters, Becca (4F) and Eliza (2F). But now, after a recent turn of events, my marriage feels like it’s on the edge of collapse.

For three years, my boyfriend (28M) and I have been building a strong relationship, but I’ve always been clear: I’m not ready for marriage just yet. It’s not about him I just need more time to feel comfortable with such a life-changing decision. Despite this, a few weeks ago, he surprised me in the most public way imaginable.

I recently treated myself to something I’ve wanted for years a luxury watch. It’s more than just an expensive item; it represents a personal achievement and months of saving and hard work. When I finally got it, I felt proud, like I’d reached a milestone I’d been striving toward for a long time.
