This fight only added to a list of complaints he already had. He could never get his point across when they spoke, she didn’t want him to have any female friends (or hang out with any of his friends for that matter) and didn’t seem to trust him. I knew Tracy wasn’t just throwing these accusations out of the blue. There had to be a reason she was acting this way. I was right. He had cheated on her about a year ago.
