My wife was sleeping next to me – Joshua began telling me - and all of a sudden I got a Facebook notification, and a woman asked me to add her. So, I added her.
I accepted the friend request and sent a message asking, 'Do we know each other?’
She replied: ‘I heard you got married but I still love you.'
She was a friend from the past. She looked very beautiful in the picture. I typed: ‘You look unchanged.’
Then I closed the chat and looked at my wife, she was sleeping soundly after her exhausting day of work.
Looking at her, I was thinking about how she feels so safe that she can sleep so comfortably in a completely different home with me.
She is far from her parents' house, where she spent 24 hours surrounded by her family. When she was upset or sad, her mother was there so she could cry in her lap. Her sister or brother would tell jokes and make her laugh. Her father would come home and bring her stuff she liked… And still, she placed so much trust in me.
All these thoughts came to mind, so I picked up the smartphone and pressed "BLOCK". Then I turned to my wife and slept next to her.
I am a man – says Joshua to me - not a child. I have sworn to be faithful to her and so it will be. I will fight forever to be a man who doesn't cheat and tear his family apart like some stupid guys who are falling into the trap.”
