That same day, Colleen got a call from her stepdaughter. “You really think he’s going to turn his back on his only daughter?” she said before hanging up. Colleen was heartbroken. She felt she had done the right thing to protect their future, but now she was being treated like the enemy.
It’s been several days, and while Colleen hasn’t moved out, her husband still won’t speak to her. She’s feeling abandoned and betrayed for taking a stand she believed was necessary. All she wanted was for his daughter to grow up and become independent. Now, she’s wondering if her marriage will survive the fallout.
