A pinch from my book, The Wives of Machismo, "The Story Behind The Dress.".

It's early evening on Saturday and John is sitting on the couch watching TV where he has been for several hours. 

Delfina walks into the living room in an exquisite gold, fitted dress made of sequins and stones. The dress sits slightly above her knees and compliments her matching purse and stilettos.

“How do I look?" she asked John as she placed her hands on her hips and smiled.

"Like a tramp," he replied.

Delfina gasped, "Excuse me?" she says in shock.

"I said like a tramp. Now go take that shit off!" he says.

Her mouth drops open and she frowns. Shocked and confused she heads towards the front door anyways.

He jumps off the couch and starts ripping the dress off of her. 

Delfina screams in shock. She begins to cry.

"I can't believe you did that!" she yells.

"You’re a married woman now! Married women don't go out without their husbands!" yells John. 

"What?" she says.

"You heard me! Now go take the rest of that shit off or I will take it off for you," yells John.

Delfina is in utter shock!

She goes to the bedroom and removes the rest of the dress and then slowly takes off her makeup.

She continues to cry as she puts on her pajamas. 

She loves John and she doesn't want to lose him. 

She makes her way back into the living room and sits on the couch to watch TV with him.

"That's much better," he says, as he places his hand on her thigh and begins caressing it.

A pinch of, "Her Jealous Husband," one of the stories in my book, "The Wives of Machismo."

Soon, Victoria is coming to work with bruises on her arms and face. Her Boss watches her every day and realizes that she's everything that he's ever wanted in a woman. At forty-two years old, he's never been married because he has never found, "the one." A few weeks pass and Victoria doesn't show up to work one day. Her boss calls her house but doesn't get an answer. He's really worried about her so he drives over to her house. He knocks on the door. Victoria slowly cracks the door open. What he saw stopped him. He could barely recognize Victoria. Her face was swollen and purple. One eye was completely closed shut. "You shouldn't be here," says Victoria softly. "Oh my God! Victoria, are you okay?" he asks in a panic. "I'm okay, she says in a quiet voice. "Victoria, get your purse and whatever you can't leave behind and come with me, now." he says as tears begin to roll down his face. She stutters, "W

One day, you may just walk away.

Many women spend their whole life in an unhappy relationship. They stay for security. They stay for their children. They stay because they are fearful to take that step. But, sometimes, a woman who has endured hurt, sadness and disrespect from her husband, will one day, walk away.  Fear keeps many women under the thumb of a man. Usually, this man is disrespectful, a liar, and a cheater. These types of men are usually bothered by the presence of their wife. Once a man has other women on the side, their wife can't do anything right.  My short story books take you behind the scenes in this type of life. Some women sadly stay, some bravely leave, and a few witness their husband get the karma they deserve.  Click on link below and take a peek.  https://sandramoreno.org/

When he said, "I DO."

When he said I do, he made his plans to own me. When he said I do, he began to be rude to me. When he said I do, I began to annoy him. When he said I do, he found fault in everything I did. When he said I do, he started to raise his voice to me. When he said I do, I was not attractive to him anymore. When he said I do, he no longer enjoyed my presence. When he said I do, he started to be mean to me. When he said I do, he began to disrespect me. When he said I do, he started to touch me with anger. When he said I do, he began to cheat on me. When he said I do, he became jealous of any person who made me happy. When he said I do, he started telling me what I can and can't do. When he said I do, he started to control me. When he said I do, he slapped me. When he said I do, nothing I ever said was right. When he said I do, he made me feel stupid. When he said I do, he started to get mad more often. When he said I do, he started to throw things in anger. When he said I do, he found othe
