Dear Michael,
Anger issues aren't ideal when all the rage is bottled up for years.
These past 45 years of marriage with you were nice for only so long. The holidays abroad, the little trips we'd take to the lakes. Our anniversary every year would be celebrated with all our loved ones; although my family wasn't your scene, you still made the time to be in their company and kept your judgments to yourself. You were so respectful to me when we first wed. When I couldn't conceive and we lost all hope of becoming parents you never gave up on me. But anger has broke silence and you have shown your true colours and it is hideous. How have you stopped yourself for so long bursting out like you have these last few months? It is beyond terrifying and I hope you get the help you need. You should have listened to me when I told you to go to therapy it would have helped you. But now it's too late.
I guess the purpose of this letter is, I am willing to leave you my half of the farm and the cottage. I am filing for divorce. I am leaving you Michael, and if we ever cross paths again I sure hope to see you happy and content like you once were with me. For all the happy years we had together I want to thank you. I hope you can forgive me.
Maggie Lloyd.
