Things are not always as they seem - Real Mum story on MoM

I hate to admit it but I was Jealous and I hated it… a new neighbour moved into my street she was late 20’s and seemed to have it all, she was beautiful in the Kardashian way really fit and had life easy, had the beautiful house the prestige car and the hardworking husband perfect kids and the dog and cat to go with it, travelled all the time never wore the same thing twice never looked tired and never had to work. I was always nice to her but secretly in that horrible inside yourself way…you know what I mean …I hated her for her easy life and perfection…. after a few years we finally met up for a coffee and didn’t I get an education she broke down and told me her story her controlling husband who won’t let her work or study, her being financially controlled and not privy to any of the running’s or financials of their life and that she only focused on her appearance and perfect abs as those were the only things she had control over in her life… OMG I felt so terrible… we now meet up every week and I am supporting her as best I can so she can get herself to a better place but it really does show that you never know what someone’s life is like on the inside.
