As a kid I wished I was like Matilda and someone like Ms. Honey would adopt me and take me away from my family and love me unconditionally.

I literally thought I was horrible growing up because I wanted this for my mom. As an adult I realized I just wanted out of her narcissistic abuse. Thankfully I’ve been no contact for years.

Jennette McCurdy’s book was a hard but great read, I remember headlines being so shocked at the title but it was just that wish to be free finally expressed out loud.

As a kid I wished I was an orphan. I asked to be sent to boarding school in another country. When I was like 8. All the books I read were about orphans or boarding schools.

Sometimes I wished that because I couldn’t imagine him being alone to care for my children in a custody situation. He wasn’t this way before we had kids but things escalated over time. 🥺

My ex boyfriend didn’t show up after work one day. I thought, “Maybe he died during the workday.” And it was a calm feeling. That was a huge tell. Sadly he proposed two weeks later, and it took me an entire year to break up with him.
