This is my first wedding anniversary and I’ve been married for 3 years. How does that work?
Life is complicated.
When Andrey and I met we argued about Stalin all night. I think he's been brainwashed. He disagrees, and accuses me of the same. He told me he had to immigrate after the wall fell and his family had to start again in Canada. He told me he’d been shot at as a kid. He has black belts. He practices sword work.
He scared me. He told me he had a demon in him named Igor - it didn’t seem like a joke. He wasn’t like anyone I’d met and I didn’t know what to make of it.
I got pregnant with Scarlett after 8 months of dating this strange Russian man. It was terrifying. We decided to have her - I couldn’t bear any other thought - and we got married, despite intense pressure from his family. (They think I’m a cult leader 😇)
We separated about a year after Scarlett was born. It was awful... It was me, really - I ran.
We started working together - he runs the business side of @jordan.b.peterson’s enterprise (he’s a business consultant) - and we negotiated a separated family. We argued daily for a year. Intense arguments. It took us a year and a half to sort through our issues (many, if not most of them, mine).
He never left once though. Even when we were separated he was the only person I could rely on. I didn’t understand it.
Once I trusted him enough, once I’d run him through the mill 😞, once he showed me I could rely on him (I suppose), we got back together. It happened in a day. Then instead of a desperately needed family life, he helped save my dad instead. After one week we went to Russia to get medical help. We wouldn’t have been able to get the care we received if it weren’t for his friendships and diplomacy. He can negotiate better than anyone I’ve met. Everyone likes him.
As a dad he’s incredible - endless patience, kindness, and care. I’m so lucky.
I don’t know anyone else who would choose to put up with me for my entire life. Thanks for choosing me and sticking through it. I can’t believe you have. It’s been a wild ride. Here’s to our first or third anniversary. I love you and Igor.
So is everyone assuming this guy is a communist because he defends Stalin? Is it not uncommon for Russians to stan Stalin for entirely nationalistic purposes, often in the same breathe as stanning the Tsars.
image link broken for me, same for anyone else?
Same to me. The text says:
