Today, I told my friend, who's a marriage counsellor, about some of the things my husband does that I hate, like snoring loudly and eating with his mouth open. I wasn't asking for advice, but she just looked me dead in the eyes and said, "Divorce." Bye-bye, faith in humanity. FML

Today, my husband and I went to marriage counselling. I confessed something that was bothering me, but he didn't understand. Our counselor repeated word-for-word what I said right back at him. He turned to me angrily and shouted, "Why couldn't you just say that the first time?!" FML

Cunning stunt

Today, I asked my wife for a divorce, after I tried everything to save our marriage, and it was a gut-wrenching decision. I tried easing her into it, but she instantly agreed. She had packing boxed ready to move out. Now I suspect she was sabotaging our marriage for months so I'd call it quits. FML

Today, I told my wife I wanted a divorce. I haven’t been in love with her for a long time and I've fallen in love with a girl at my job. When I told her this, she responded with, “No, fuck that, we're going to couples' therapy and you are gonna be a father to our kids!” I guess that’s a “No.” FML

Not OK

By Homeles - 16/06/2023 00:00 - United States - Fort Lauderdale

Today, I was sick and tired of my husband talking to his female friend from high school all the time. They reconnected after 7 years and have been talking non-stop day and night, to the point of neglecting the marriage. I told him it was either me or her. He took off his ring and kicked me out of our house. FML

Today, my husband rolls his eyes at me 90% of the time when I ask for a kiss. I think divorce is not too far off. FML

Today, I told my wife I wanted to reconnect with my religion. She told me that if I wanted to I could, but to expect divorce papers when I got back because she doesn’t intend to be married to one of those boring ass religious nut jobs ruining her Sunday mornings. FML

Your friend sounds like she has an amazingly sarcastic, dry sense of humor! I like her.

Reverse psychology? Now you're seeing how petty his little habits are that seemed to have bothered you so much. :P

Yea I agree. Maybe she's basically being sarcastic and implying that your problems are nothing compared to what she deals with.

i have to say... you asked for it. why share what upsets u if you didn't want a solution that she is qualified to give? you should have told her that you just want air-time and affirmative nodding instead.

FYL for your friend being a dick (however, that was pretty funny), YDI for using the term "faith in humanity."

I hope you didn't take that seriously, because I am almost positive she was messing with you. However, your username and ending statement make me think otherwise.

I got the same impression. She probably didn't wanna do work related stuff off the clock, let alone with one of her friends so it wouldn't surprise if she threw that out there to make OP shut the hell up.

That's the problem with marriage/people today. People divorce or suggest divorce over communicating properly and fixing the relationship. Glad op realized her friend was being stupid.
