I divorced my first wife for cruelty. Twelve years after being divorced she pulled me aside when I was picking the kids up to being them home (I had custody) she said she wanted to talk to me privately. I thought ‘yup, she wants money’. She said she wanted to apologize. She said ‘all these years I thought you were the bad guy. I finally saw it correctly. You were the good guy! I was the bad one. I destroyed the marriage.’ It was very moving for me. If you had asked me how I would respond to that I would have said ‘Meh. I couldn’t care less what she thinks.’ But it was important to hear it for me.
