In June 2022, my sister found out she was pregnant, and Maya, our daughter, wanted to move to Springfield to help. Additionally, I work for a company headquartered in Springfield (since June 2020) and worked out of the home office periodically. So, it made sense to purchase a second home / investment property. The plan, which Chubby, Maya, and I discussed and agreed to, was to rent out one room, Maya would manage the rental, and I would have a place to stay, as needed. -

In July 2022, Maya and Elijah (our daughter and now son-in-law) started talking over the phone. Elijah wanted to visit Louisiana, but Chubby insisted that Maya see him in Missouri instead. Chubby encouraged Maya to go but said I needed to go, too. -
Period: to
August 2022
Maya and I left for a week's vacation to Missouri, August 12 through August 21, 2022. When we returned from our trip, we (a mutual decision between Chubby and myself) decided to expedite the purchase of our second home / investment property so Maya could be closer to Elijah. We also wanted to purchase prior to fourth quarter, which is my busy season. -

Chubby encouraged us (Maya and I) to head back to Missouri on Labor Day weekend so I could have an extra day to see houses and possibly place some offers. I did get a house under contract, and we decided that I should stay during the inspection period. -

The house appraised, received clear to close, and I closed on 10/7/2022. We also purchased Maya a car on the same day. On 10/9/2022, Maya and I returned to Louisiana for Maya's birthday week and stayed until 10/21/2022. At this point, work was busy, and we needed to start fixing up the house in Springfield. Chubby came up on October 24, 2022, with some furniture and some of Maya's things. He stayed a couple of days before heading back to Louisiana. -

When my busy season was over, I told Chubby on a phone call that I was trying to wrap things up to go home. At this point, Chubby told me to stay. He said he wouldn't rest knowing that Maya was driving in the ice and snow, so he wanted me to wait to show her how to drive in inclement weather. -

During this time, I asked Chubby why he wasn't calling me. He would text but not call. He answered that he was working on my schedule. I reminded him that I was still his wife and that he could call me, but he played it off like it wasn't a big deal. -

March 2023
On March 11, 2023, Maya, Elijah, and I arrived in Louisiana for spring break. Chubby said he'd let me in. (as a "joke"). On Tuesday the 14th, Chubby got mad at me over Maya's driving, as if that was somehow my fault, and he stopped talking to me. On Saturday, March 18th, we (Maya, Elijah, and I) headed back to Springfield. During our goodbyes, Chubby gave me a side hug and said that's all he had for me, then proceeded to walk into the house while we finished loading up. -
Period: to
April 2023
During this time, I called Chubby almost every day on my way to work, and he did not answer, nor did he call me back. This went on for about two months. We did text briefly about Maya's car and a tax return. -

As previously stated, I continued to reach out to Chubby on my way to work each morning, leaving him messages but not hearing back. Our 20th anniversary was on the 1st, and nothing. Then, on May 17th, I texted him asking how long he planned on continuing this course of action, at which time he indicated that our relationship was over. See texts. -
