Three Years Divorced: Is That Really Too Long?

Three years ago, unable to bear the constant taunts of others calling him a kept man and pretty boy, he steeled himself to leave her and go far away. He never once tried to see things from her point of view. It wasn't because he didn't love her. In his mind, staying with him, a man who had nothing at the time, meant she was destined to endure a life of hardship and instability. He firmly believed that once he made something of himself and achieved success, he would return and beg her forgiveness. He was certain that, given how deeply she loved him, she would smile, open her arms, and forgive him for leaving without a word. But when he finally returned in glory, hoping to find that familiar face, reality slapped him with a devastating surprise: everything had changed.

It turned out her family had gone bankrupt. It turned out her loved ones were already gone. It turned out she had disappeared. How had she, so helpless, endured such a cruel fate?! He couldn't bear to imagine it. Frantically searching for her like an ant on a hot pan, he finally chanced upon her. But he was no longer the penniless young man he had been, and she was no longer the helpless girl who knew nothing. Could the two of them really rekindle their old love?
