I was the pain proxy for my spouse, meaning their mess got dumped on me like a bag of broken glass

My wife's bad day turned into my bad week

He brought home his boss's stress and I got the full brunt of it

She cried about her ex and I got the emotional equivalent of a face full of glitter and a curse

I became the pain proxy, so my spouse’s problems all came to me like a broken toaster in a sock

His failed business became my failed weekend

She had a fight with her mom and I got the full drama

He lost his job and I had to listen to it 24/7

I was the pain proxy, meaning I took all their problems like a prisoner in a jail cell of sadness

She cried about her cat and I got stuck in the sadness jail

He yelled at the mailman and I had to deal with the aftermath

Her failed diet made me eat a whole pizza at 3 AM
