I knew I was leaving the bitch for about a year until our house was sold.

Generally, these guys get worried because their wives do shady things and don’t set appropriate boundaries. I’m a woman, but I coach my sons in baseball. Usually the only woman out there. It’s not uncommon for me to send multiple texts to other coaches (guys) in the evenings to talk about lineups, etc. I keep it strictly about baseball. My husband and I have the same passcodes to our phones, so if he ever wanted to check those messages, he could. When I’m around these guys, it’s virtually always in a public setting. If my husband is ever out of town, guess who I’m calling to hang out - the coaches’ wives. Some things are just common sense.

Have been engaged before, but called it off six months before we were scheduled to go through with it.
She and I moved to Chicago together for my job. She ended up loving it up there more than I and wanted to stay there and pursue her career while I had an opportunity to be closer to home. Was the right move for both of us. We still get along great and are in better situations. Our families still love us both. She was a true, best friend on the weekends at the bars with fun sex, but literally nothing else clicked by the end and we had different goals in life. I wanted a church-based family life with kids. She decided kids weren’t in her future.
I moved. Funny enough, she ended up getting knocked up and, wouldn’t you know it, back closer to home after dealing with their politics during Covid.
I, on the other hand, due to a traveling role with my work have bounced around with different women over the last six years and have not wanted any sort of marriage.
Crazy how life plays out.

I know this story is fake because movers could never be trusted with that kind of punctuality
Nor could a woman ever pack up all of her belongings in the half-hour that he said it took him to get there. Her closet alone would take hours to box up.

A friend of mine got blind sided. He left on a Friday afrernoon to go on a weekend fishing trip with a buddy. Got several miles down the road and realized he had forgotten something important. He turned around and went home and found his wife in their hot tub with his brother-in-law. (His sister's husband)

The wife of a couple I know picked up her shite and moved out of their house with their 2 year old 3 hours after the dude got back from a business trip after a 16 four flight from China. They’re back together now but the dude was blindsided and jet lagged.

now ya tell me 
. It was the only person that ever made me uncomfortable. I'd been married 13 when dude popped up. If I hadn't had children with her I'd feel different about the whole experience but that's the way it goes sometimes.

Comment one, there's only one person who is responsible for your happiness and it's the person that you see in the mirror.
In a vacuum, yes. In a marriage, no. Some people are just not compatible. A lot of people fake their way through life putting on a happy exterior for the world, but inside they're miserable because their spouse treats them like a roommate at best. In some cases, a roommate would be better. Many husbands/wives take their spouse for granted, giving no respect or consideration. Years of that takes a toll and I don't blame anyone for walking out of an emotionally neglectful/abusive relationship.

I need a woman perspective, why do women initiate divorce 80% of the time?
He didn't like me as a person anymore. None of those ohhh he doesn't love me bs, he actively did not like me and would tell me.
That's not fun to be around. I can beat myself up just fine without someone else chiming in to tell me how awful I am.
I was willing to work on it, he said even an hour of his time wasn't worth it to try, so I left.
Not for a lack of trying on my part, but I'm also worth more than being put down all the time. I don't ask for much, but I ask to be treated with respect.
That's been resolved since the divorce, but long term as a couple it doesn't work and it was glaringly obvious.

When I got a call from the dude's wife.
Posted on 8/14/24 at 9:44 am to Jenious
on our 20th anniversary, we were on vacation with another family. She was playing cards with the other wife. I got ready for bed, so i called her to the bedroom and gave her a string of pearls, pearl earrings and a card. She seemed surprised, had nothing for me, and said "can i return them?" then she went back to her card game. My thought was "well, that's over." I disconnected mentally and emotionally that instant, and ended it when it was convenient.
