My father's words to me that day continue to haunt me. My parents were horrified that I was walking away from a man they felt was right for me. We spent hours talking and crying as he tried to convince me to stay, but I was adamant.

He was my best friend, yet I took him totally for granted.Īfter festering for weeks about his shortcomings, I told Matthew I was leaving. I stopped appreciating little things he did, like leaving romantic notes on the pillow or scouring secondhand bookshops for novels he knew I'd love. Our sex life had dwindled and nights out together were rare. Matthew was doing round-the-clock shifts, while I worked long hours on the launch of a new magazine. We went from spending every evening and weekend together, to hardly seeing one another. It should have heralded a new chapter in our lives, but it only hastened the end. I encouraged him to find a career and was thrilled when he was accepted to join the police in 1995.

How dare she come between us! Over the next few weeks, I'm ashamed to say I vented my spleen at both of them in a series of heated phone calls' 'I hated the fact Matthew was suddenly putting another woman before me.

But we didn't care, telling ourselves that it wouldn't be long before we were earning more and able to afford weekly treats and a bigger home where we could bring up the babies we had planned.īut then, the housing market crashed and we were plunged into negative equity. We giggled with delight at the thought of this grown-up new life.I was in my first junior role at a women's magazine and Matthew worked fitting tyres and exhausts, so our combined salaries of around £15,000 a year meant we struggled to make the mortgage payments. The following year, we bought a tiny starter home in Grays, Essex, which we moved into with furniture we had begged, borrowed and stolen. Two months later, we held our engagement party for 40 friends and family at the little house we were renting at the time. In the summer of 1989, while out for a romantic meal, Matthew proposed properly with a diamond solitaire ring. 'Promise you'll marry me one day.' I laughed and said yes, thrilled that he felt the same way that I did.

Then, oblivious to the other drivers beeping their horns, he got down on one knee in the middle of the road. Scared something was wrong, I braked in the middle of traffic and we both jumped out. We were in my little Mini Clubman when he shouted at me to stop the car. Two weeks later, when we'd been seeing each other for less than a month, he proposed. While she still loved him, Karen began to feel embarrassed by Matthew's blue-collar jobs
