Relationships aren’t always full of flowers, smiles, and “happily ever afters.” Sometimes, love looks like sitting in a therapist’s office wondering if there’s anything left to fight for. That’s exactly where Anthony and his partner found themselves.
The session started off bluntly. When asked how they were doing, she didn’t mince words:
“Doesn’t feel like much of a relationship, to be honest. Isn’t that right, Anthony?”
Anthony tried to point to a recent effort — he had bought her flowers.
“That’s good,” the therapist encouraged.
“It felt warm and fuzzy... for about 2.5 seconds,” she responded, cutting through the gesture with her pain.
Then came the root of the tension — his ex and her mother.
“His mother-in-law came to my house to confront me,” she said, fuming.
Anthony tried to defend himself:
“She’s not my mother-in-law.”
But the damage was done.
“She thinks she can walk into my life like she owns it — and you allow her to feel that way.”
Anthony insisted he didn’t “allow” anything.
“How am I supposed to stop someone from doing what they want?”
But she wasn’t convinced.
“People only do what you allow, Anthony. And you let Shayla and her mother run everything.”
Anthony attempted to calm the fire.
“I apologize on her behalf.”
But that only made things worse.
“You apologized — and then checked me for telling Angelina you bought me flowers. Why are we even here?”
The therapist reminded them gently:
“You’re here to try and salvage your marriage.”
“Really? Is that what we’re doing? Because I’m here for you to convince him to sign the papers so I can move on,” she snapped.
The tension in the room was suffocating. The therapist encouraged them to breathe. She recognized that outside forces were straining their relationship — and her partner agreed.
“He lets everybody walk into our relationship — Shayla, Kai, Angelina. I’m the one who was wronged, but I’m the one under attack.”
Then came the mention of Wayne — a business partner from past sessions.
“He’s still your business partner, right?”
“Correct,” Anthony replied.
“And how’s that dynamic?”
“Honestly, non-existent. That’s not the issue. Wayne isn’t the problem. Shayla, her mom, and the baby — that’s the problem.”
But she disagreed.
“No, let’s talk about Wayne.”
Anthony admitted they were still working together.
“He’s a great asset to my business. We hashed things out. We’re businessmen — we know how to keep business and personal separate.”
Still, the emotional shift in the room was unmistakable.
“A lot of emotions come up when Wayne is mentioned,” the therapist noted.
“Anthony likes to use Wayne as an excuse for his behavior. I asked for forgiveness. He said he forgave me — but now he uses it as ammo.”
Anthony disagreed.
“It’s not an excuse.”
“Oh, it is,” she snapped back.
“I’m here in this session, trying to move forward.”
Then the therapist asked a piercing question:
“Did you love Wayne?”
Silence.
“Can we just change the subject, please? This isn’t about Wayne. I need a second.”
And just like that, the air was heavy again — the weight of love, betrayal, pride, and pain sitting thick between them.
