    That man struck gold, after 35 years locked up and he comes home to her and she had the house kept like he never left, they don’t make em like that anymore. These days if she’s even still around your likely to find another man at the house when you get back lol

I couldn’t even go see my family for 4 days after not seeing them for years without coming back to find my ex had been staying the night with a man who was supposed to be my friend the whole time I was gone lol and she did exactly that, checking acct was negative and she was the victim, somehow it was all my fault 😂
