My husband, Joe, 34, and I have been married for 3 years now. For us both this is a second marriage and I used to think that after my first unfortunate experience with being married I finally found someone, who’s serious about relationship.”
“We’d been dating for 5 months before Joe proposed to me. I hesitated a tad, because I still wasn’t sure if he was the one I could connect my life with. But he was so attentive that I finally gave up and agreed to marry him.”
Ashley has been happy with her relationship, up until recently.
Ashley shared, “Joe has bought me with his immense attention before our marriage. He was literally showering me with care, trying to predict my mood and my wishes, I did feel like a princess with him.”
“In general, our relationship and our marriage were idyllic, up until recently, when I discovered that probably my husband had been pretending all this time. I assume that all his care and attention were just a trap to make me more dependent on him in marriage. Now, he has shown his true face, and I discovered a very unpleasant side of his personality after a small incident that recently happened between us.”
Ashley had fallen ill and her husband behaved in a very strange way.
Ashley wrote, “This incident happened about 2 weeks ago, and I still can’t stop thinking about it. For context, my husband and I have a lovely family tradition. We go grocery shopping together, and then we prepare meals together. I always thought it was cute, and it helped us with our further bonding as a married couple. But recently, I just couldn’t keep this tradition due to health issues, and my husband’s behavior drove me mad.”
“I was feeling very sick. I said to my husband that I wanted to eat some soup, but I didn’t feel like cooking together. I could barely move a finger. My spouse started cooking alone. I was in bed, with a high fever, when he brought me a cutting board, a knife, and a cabbage to chop and boldly said, ’I was making this dinner in the kitchen alone, you were in bed, so I thought maybe you could still help from your bed.’”
The woman has mixed feelings about her husband now.
Ashley revealed, “I told Joe that I was not feeling well, and I obviously was not able to help with preparing dinner. I also said that I did not feel like eating anymore. And then Joe started showing his care again, saying, ’But honey, you still need something to eat right, that’s good for your health! Let’s go and cook your soup together, what’s the problem?’”
The woman confessed, “This might seem a trifle and even my mom says that I’m overreacting, but after this incident I feel like I lost any respect for my spouse. He has suddenly turned from a very caring man into a shallow and absolutely indifferent person, who was concerned about dinner and family tradition more than about his wife’s wellbeing and health. What should I do?”
And here’s a story of the most epic disillusionment that could ever happen in a family. A woman told us how she found a tampon in her husband’s car and thought that he was cheating. But after she dug in, she wished it was an affair that her husband had been hiding from her. Because her spouse turned out to be a real creep.
