I ate all of my husbands. First I ate their love, then their will, then their despair, and then I made pies of their bodies - and those bodies were so dear to me!

About This Quote

Not one person on this planet can say they don’t know what this quote means. When I had first heard the message I had laughed and thought it was a joke. But after years of being in relationship with my husband, I realized this quote is true. He will eat you alive until you are nothing but a memory.

And when you are gone, he will move onto the next one leaving your family feeling empty and hollow. This isn’t love, this is an empty shell of affection that will never be filled up again.
