The Bigamist: The True Story of a Husband's Ultimate Betrayal
by Mary Turner-Thomson
I struggled deeply with this book.
I began reading it with interest and thought the writing style was interesting.
However, the longer I read, the more I began to see the flaws. I struggled a lot with sympathy for Mary. The red flags were all there and she refused to acknowledge them for years. She forgave him over and over, even when he stood her up countless times, took every cent of her money, didn't arrive for the birth of his two children, and continued to act like a total asshole; she ignored it and forgave him.
Despite all of this, she does deserve a semblance of sympathy for enduring what she did and he deserves to rot.
But this story should definitely be a sign for people to question their partners shady actions. Don't let things go and just accept it even when you know deep down it seems weird.
If they don't show up, give lame excuses, or lie; find out why. It might save you heartache in the end.
