I have utmost respect for my English teacher

[vernier]

He was sharing his life story with us yesterday and it was fucking brutal and sad. Here's how it goes:

He's 54 rn but at the age of 23 he lost his teaching job which resulted in him being jobless for a period of time, keep in mind his family was not well to do as well. He was the only bread winner in his family of 5 (a dad and 4 siblings who were all going to school) his mother died 2 years prior to this.

At the age of 26 he found another job and got married, after his wife birthed a boy he lost this job, resulting in daily fights with his wife, he said that his wife started to fight with him everyday and threatened that she'd leave and divorce him and that's what happened she filed a divorce and immediately married a new man (FEMALE NATURE)

He started crying at this point as he went on saying that since then his only kid don't want to see him and has cut all connections with him. There were also more sad experiences in his life such as him not eating for days or him getting beaten up by his wife's brothers one time.

He's been teaching here for 18 years now, an OG and I have more respect for him now not as a teacher but as a man.
