He’s not just an ahole. He’s a monster. A psychopath. It took him to be socially isolated to understand the tiniest bit of wrongness he did. Omg…

He knew porn was a boundary in their relationship. He told her he crossed that boundary which is a form or cheating (because the boundary was already set) and now he is mad she cheated.

S1: every penny OP pays into her step-kids’ education should be part of a loan agreement with bio mom. I guarantee if the roles were reversed OP’s husband and his ex would not be shifting any finances to accommodate her kid(s).

Jesus... the guy in the last one is a monster. I'm glad that his coworkers actually called him out on his behavior too.

Re: the last story, while I do think cheating is generally not OK, I think that someone who is being severely psychologically abused and tortured by their partner "cheating" with someone who treats them like an actual human being is a wildly different thing from most instances of cheating. Also, pretty fucked up that none of his friends tried to warn the wife what he was doing to her!

@NathalieClair88 1 year ago

The last story makes me so furious. Honestly, I'm glad his wife cheated on him because he deserved that. He clearly was not a good husband but felt entitled to her doing all this extra cleaning and psychologically damaged her in order to get what he wanted. Talking about vows don't matter when the consequences of what he did could have been detrimental to her mental health.

"He's embarrassed about his car" and has been "suffering in silence". So THAT'S why he doesn't want to wake up early to drive her to work in her car?
Boohoo?

Even though an engineer makes more than a nurse (RN), he can’t comprehend how difficult her job is. It’s physically, mentally & emotionally BRUTAL. She deals with life & de@th for 12 straight hours on her feet often without a break (nurses frequently get urinary tract infections from waiting for hours to go to the restroom when they need to pee) taking care of patients who are miserable & take it out on her (sometimes physically).

@madelenekorpi1988 8 months ago

I can even go so far to forgive her cheating. He deserved it for treating her like garbage. I can’t believe that guy 😤

@wherethesoulrests 1 year ago

S3... he married a medical professional. She works very long very hard hours in a hospital. When she gets home, she's exhausted. On her days off she'd like to rest a bit and not be a built-in maid and chef for the "man of the house". His fawning over someone else's wife and daydreaming about having a built-in chef is selfish. He's a jerk. She can do better. He needs to learn what mad cleaning is. She's not cleaning to make him happy; she's cleaning to keep from offing him. This is abusive and will only get worse. She needs to leave his lazy butt.

I am so ANGRY at the guy from the third story... SO ANGRY.

@AcousticTelevisions 1 year ago

46:28 I'd be really curious to see the timeline of her cheating, if it was after this abuse came to light.
He's such a toxic asshat who cannot hold two things at once. He's terrifying

@emm_uhh 1 year ago

This is probably the one-time reddit is like he deserved to get cheated on. Op learned nothing will probably never grow from this and will get into another toxic relationship.

She doesn’t have the money to pay for her husband’s children to go private school.

@SonieCartwright 1 year ago (edited)

First story, a lot of comments that is attacking OP is forgetting that OP is from a different country. I was born in a country where public school is HORRIBLE. In those country where you go to high school truly determine your college and your life. If parents have money they will send their kids to international school. I think this is why OP is refused to compromised and pull her kids out of the private school.

@susanchrist3730 1 year ago

The last story. What the guy has to understand is that his coworker's wife's job is to take care of their home. Also, most people clean their house and cook something really special when companies coming over. I guarantee that's not an everyday thing at the coworker's house. He is a major a-hole.

@siren.night111 10 months ago (edited)

Bro is complaining that his wife cooks bc "he's not good at it" sweeps, and does the dishes as needed. But his chores are only like once a month.🙄😂...&
Now, he's complaining that he's the only one eating. She is literally going straight to bed most nights, but dishes are piling up. So they're your fucking dishes. Do your dishes? I swear people like this. They get into relationships, and then they suddenly forget how to survive. If I was his wife, I would just look at him and say, so you're the only one making the mess but you expect me to clean it. What do you think would happen if I was no longer here? If me and you got divorced, do you think your home is still gonna magically get clean?
