I never cheated. Not once, not ever, not even a kiss, not in twenty-five years. It was just a story I had believed about myself. In Miss Americana, Taylor Swift talks about how stars can become stuck at the age when they became famous. I have come to believe the same thing about the age when you get married. Whatever you believed about yourself then is what you will continue to believe for years and decades to come. Unless something—or someone—shows up to change your mind. It’s quite something to expect to be the sinner and instead turn out to be the saint.
