At first her beauty was mind blowing to him.
He couldn’t believe his luck in her loving him.
In time her looks became a liability.
Everywhere they went men gawked at her
and made him nearly crazy with jealousy.
And men were constantly pursuing her
when he was not with her.
Eventually she left him for one of those
men, and though his heart was broken,
he was relieved the pressure was gone.
