00:00My name is Amanda. I am 35 years old. I am married. My husband's name is Elvis. He is 39 years old.
00:12We have been married for 10 years. We have a son. His name is Lucas. He is 9 years old.
00:20When I married my husband Elvis, he had nothing. He had one bag of clothes, no car, no house, no money.
00:32But I loved him. We rented small apartments. We struggled. Life was hard. I worked a lot. I studied a lot. I never gave up.
00:44After years of hard work, I got a good job. I earn $8,000 a month now.
00:54Five years ago, I bought a house with a loan.
00:59Later, I bought a car. Our life became better.
01:04But Elvis did not change. He works in a construction company.
01:09Some months he has a job. Some months he does not.
01:16He earns $4,500 when he works.
01:21When he does not work, he earns nothing.
01:25That is not the worst part.
01:28Elvis does not care about me.
01:31He does not care about our son.
01:34He does not save money.
01:36When he has money, he spends it on other women.
01:42He is polite.
01:43He respects other people.
01:46But outside, he is different.
01:50He goes to hotels with women.
01:53He spends our money on them.
01:56He does not think about his family.
01:58I worked hard to buy our house.
02:03I worked hard to buy our car.
02:05I built our life.
02:07But Elvis does not care.
02:10His mother does not support me.
02:14She says,
02:15You have a job.
02:16You have money.
02:18It is your responsibility to take care of him.
02:23She tells him,
02:24Your wife has a good job.
02:27She must buy the food.
02:29She must pay the bills.
02:31She must take care of everything.
02:34She also says,
02:37If Amanda gets a promotion,
02:40Maybe she has a man at work.
02:43She tells my son bad things about me.
02:47My son is confused.
02:49He does not understand.
02:51I fight with Elvis every day.
02:54Five months ago, he met a woman.
02:57She is older than him.
03:00She is rich.
03:00He told me,
03:02Leave the house.
03:03You can bring another man here.
03:05I don't care.
03:08Then he left.
03:09Now he wants to come back.
03:11He says,
03:12I made a mistake.
03:14I am sorry.
03:15Please forgive me.
03:17But I remember everything.
03:19I worked hard.
03:21I did everything.
03:23And he only gave me pain.
03:25I don't know what to do.
03:28I look at my son.
03:30He is innocent.
03:32He needs a father.
03:34But does he need this kind of father?
03:36I sit in my room.
03:38I think I can live alone.
03:40I can take care of my son.
03:43I do not need a man who does not respect me.
03:47I take a deep breath.
03:49I stand up.
03:50I know my decision now.
03:54I will choose myself.
03:57Always respect yourself and never stay with someone who does not value you.
