S02E06 In the Waiting Room of Estranged Spouses

A few months later, I found myself in a psychologist's waiting area, having just finished my fourth emotional breakdown. As I composed myself, a woman entered, cradling a child. Initially, her face didn’t ring a bell, but then I recalled who she was. Without thinking, I blurted out, "Are you the wife of the man my wife is cheating with?" She replied, "Yes, but we’re no longer together." This unexpected encounter sparked a moment of shared pain and connection amidst our individual struggles.
