For our first two years together, I was living in a fairy tale. Jason was attentive, romantic, always talking about our future. He’d point out baby clothes in stores and say things like, “Our kids are going to be so beautiful,” or, “I can’t wait to be a dad.” He made me feel like I was the missing piece in his perfect life puzzle. We got married on a beach in Mexico, and as he promised to love me in sickness and in health, I believed every word.
