Welcome to Sydney's Tales.

I had the perfect life, the perfect house, and the perfect family. I spent 14 years making sure everything in my husband Robert's life ran perfectly , from his social calendar to the way he loaded the dishwasher. I only wanted things done the right way.

But one Tuesday, he came home with the wrong hamburger meat. I bought 80/20, he bought 70/30. That 10% difference cost me everything. That night, a simple argument about taco meat turned into the end of my marriage. He said he was leaving over 14 years of being told he wasn't good enough.

Now, I'm alone in a tiny apartment. My kids told the court they wanted to live with him. He's dating a new woman who my children adore. My therapist calls it "toxic perfectionism", but I just thought I was being a good wife. I was so busy being right, I never stopped to think I could be so wrong.

This is the story of how my need for control destroyed the perfectly good life I already had.
