Diary entry - What is My Net Worth?

January 12, 2024  
 
April of 2022 I fell in love with the Professor (John)  
July of 2023 Shane  
November of 2023 Joseph  
January of 2024 a marriage proposal from Joseph  

These are the three men I’ve truly loved in my life. I’ve given myself to many others but if I’d limited myself to love, it would have been only these three.  

How curious, and sad, that none of these men are the father of my baby. Will my child inherit the traits of my abusive father? Will she continue my legacy of betrayal?  

Sometimes I wonder if my ending would be a net gain for this planet and its future.

Author's Note
Dark thoughts on a winter's night. Don't worry. I feel more hopeful this morning. Edited a pic Joseph took of me showing my first ultrasound results.
