Love and Jealousy: Not OK

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, I found out that my husband keeps in contact with the woman he was infatuated with in high school. He texts her more than he texts me. FML

Boundaries and jealous

By Gina Marie Lombardi - 15/04/2022 06:00

Today, I got a text from my friend of 8 years, who I talked to everyday, saying he isn’t allowed to talk to me anymore because the junkie girl he is dating doesn’t want him to talk to other girls. I’m happily married, but she doesn’t like any of his friends who are girls. FML

Today, I found out that my wife had been debating leaving me for an old boyfriend from high school. They rekindled their relationship on Facebook, and talking on the cell phone. Both things I insisted she have. FML

Today, I confronted my husband about yet again going out “with the boys” and not coming home. I told him that as long as he has that ring on his finger, he’s gonna respect me, the kids, and our home. He responded by taking off his wedding band and throwing it to the ground. FML

Today, my husband is so bored with speaking to me, he literally walked outside when I was mid-sentence during a conversation about how I need more attention in our relationship. We've only been married 3 months. FML

Today, my husband and I got into a fight about his pervert friend who regularly shows blatant disrespect for our marriage, including sending me inappropriate texts. Apparently this friend should have my full trust, and apparently I am the one with the issue for not excusing his bad behavior. FML

Today, I sat my husband down for a talk for him to stop going to his female coworker’s house until 1-2am. He insists they’re doing work projects. He became so offended that I thought otherwise that he thrashed the entire living room, stomped out of the house, and slammed the door, completely dislodging it. FML

Today, after three months of hooking up and talking about dating, the man I was supporting emotionally went back to his ex, who'd reduced the restraining order on him to a no abuse order so they could be together. He left me in his bed to go be with her. FML

Don't make an ultimatum if you can't handle all of the outcomes.

what's with the saying she made the mistake? this sucks because he already had left her not because she finally stood up for herself 🙄

So how long has it been since they reconnected? Which part(s) of the marriage did he neglect? Did you try to talk to him about it? Unfortunately, there's not enough information to know who's in the right and/or wrong, unless one want to make a snap judgement. And making snap judgements is part of what's wrong with the world today.

I had to explain that to my wife back in the day... don't issue an ultimatum unless you're happy with the the rejected ultimatum result.

Why is everyone interpreting this as "you couldn't handle the consequences of your ultimatum", instead of "dude is in love with his high school girlfriend and as the wife, that sucks"???

Relationships end and it's fine, often even good. Giving ultimatum is rarely ever fine.

You made your choice and he made his. I hope you have a friend you can crash with until you find a place to live and that you weren’t financially dependent on him.

I'd like to see the success rate for people who give ultimatums. It's got to be single digits.

Nope, he can't do that. Have him charged with illegal eviction. When you're ready, start divorce proceedings, sue him for spousal abandonment, and get the house in your name exclusively. He wants to end it, he should leave.
