My flatmate Jenny and I had been best friends since we were five and we did everything together … until Alex arrived on the scene. Even on the first date, Alex was Mr Wonderful. He was constantly telling me how beautiful I looked and I was hooked on his gorgeous smile. I knew this was […]

I never took my wedding and engagement rings off; not to wash the dishes or do the gardening or even when putting on hand cream. The first and only time I did remove them was to sell them last year. I haven’t seen them since. It was the most devastating thing I’ve ever done but […]

Rebecca and I had a great relationship. We rarely argued and when we did we were quick to bury the hatchet. We went out for about a year before we finally got married, and married life with Bec was great. We were two professional people in the prime of our lives and I was in […]

It was 12 months ago when my parents decided to separate. After 35 years of marriage they decided it was no longer working. This was a total surprise for everyone, especially me.

We were close to each other’s parents. Hers were a bit old-fashioned and mine were “modern”. We called both sets “Mum and Dad” […]

My problems all started just over five years ago. I will never forget my first day of high school. It was a warm summer’s morning, the sun was shining and there was not a cloud in the sky. Everything seemed perfect. Just metres from the school gates I suddenly felt a sharp crippling pain in […]

My whole life I have been jealous of my identical twin sister. Ever since we were little she has been better than me, smarter and more popular. At high school she got red house captain while I got vice. In our VCE results she got the perfect score that she was hoping for while I […]

Tom and I dated for only four weeks before we married. It didn’t seem to matter at the time as we were soul mates. However, a few months into the marriage I wondered about the wisdom of this. Night after night he would return home late from work explaining that he’d been visiting his elderly […]
