People often ask women who leave their marriages, “Why did you leave? He was such a good man!”
But what if the person everyone sees from the outside is not the same person you experience behind closed doors?
In this video, women share the reasons they decided to leave marriages that many people believed were good. They speak about emotional abuse, neglect, lack of communication, lack of affection, broken promises, controlling behavior, feeling unheard, and experiences they could no longer continue to endure.
One woman also shares how being a stay-at-home mother was used to control her freedom, including an incident where she and her child were locked outside the house because she wanted to visit her cousin.
Sometimes, people judge a woman for leaving because they only know the version of her husband that everyone else sees.
This video is not about encouraging divorce or telling people to abandon their marriages. It is about remembering that we rarely know what happens inside another person’s home.
If you are experiencing abuse, control, emotional cruelty, or anything that is seriously harming your wellbeing, please don’t suffer in silence. Seek support from trusted people and appropriate professional or local support services, and prioritize your safety.
What do you think? Can someone appear to be a “good husband” to everyone else while their wife is experiencing something completely different at home?

Some examples. My husband is convinced i'm abusive when he used to be abusive and is still toxic. Hes convinced we are both equally bad when we arent. He believes whole heartedly I regularly make comments about his weight, even so much as telling me I get up in the morning and go up to him and poke his belly and tell him his stomach is poking out more than average and that I regularly call him fat. Meanwhile in reality, i used to get frustrated how hed never take his shirt off around me even after 12 years of being together and cant even tell when hes gained 20 lbs. Im very big on the body positivity movement too.
He also thinks i call him names, randomly starts to think his kids who obviously are his arent his, despite the fact we both work from home and they look like him. Will start to believe things about me and then project them on me when hes insecure even if the "facts" have no backing. etc. Everytime we get in a fight, he somehow manipulates his own brain to believe he didnt say hurtful things he said and that i start all the arguments. He literally rewrites arguments, and since he believes them, will believe he is being abused if i ask for accountability. He thinks i manipulat ehim all the time when i dont and even when manipulation makes no sense in most of the contexts.
I thought for a long time he did these things on purpose, but too many times he seemed to genuinely believe them and sonit always confused me. I thought maybe it was crazy making. He was diagnosed with cptsd and scizoeffective disorder this year. I feel for him and hes trying to fix himself but idk how much longer i can do it. Being in charge of his mental health and trying not to view him poorly despite how much his disorder has caused him to hurt me often feels like torture and isnt good for either of us because his insecurity in our relationship fuels his paranoia. Im so sorry for anyone else in this predicament, especially if you guys have children like me.

What happens behind closed doors can be completely different.
Do you believe we are sometimes too quick to judge women who leave marriages because we think their husbands are “good men”?
