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

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my husband ended an argument with, "Do you want to know why people don't like being around you?" FML
Today, my marriage counselor got divorced. FML
Today, I really tried to talk to my wife how I feel that she hates me and is with me out of pity. She denied it all but by the end of the conversation mentioned she wants a divorce. FML
Today, I realized I sacrificed all my friends to make sure my marriage was successful, but sometimes when under extreme stress from my wife, I use the B-word and that’s enough for her to want to leave me. However, it’s perfectly fine for her to say "Fuck you" and that I’m a everything but a decent human being. 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
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 husband I wanted a divorce. He told me he didn't. End of discussion. 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
Today, my daughter came over, furiously ranting that her husband had asked for a divorce. During the conversation, I asked what she did to make him happy. She glared at me and yelled, "It's not my job to make my husband happy!" I'm on her husband's side after that. FML
Today, my wife of seven years told me she wants a divorce because I'm boring. FML

I hear ya, OP. A lot of bigots claim that allowing same sex partners to marry destroys the sanctity of marriage. In actuality, divorce destroys it. And counsellors who don't provide counsel, instead advising divorce, are leading the brigade. Sad, indeed.

Friend? I think you mean your ex-friend.

Maybe she was being sarcastic, because those ARE little things. Almost every expert agrees, don't spend your time complaining about your spouse to friends, because it gets old, it may affect your relationship with your spouse and they'll probably judge your spouse for it. Honestly though... if that's the worst thing in your marriage, you're lucky. I would tell my friends to divorce someone if they made the same complaint, because their spouse doesn't deserve an ungrateful bitch.

I hope she was being sarcastic. If not, she needs a new profession.

Don't take it seriously OP she's probably going through a tough time and is doubting happiness a little right now. No couple is perfect but if you love each other enough all those faults start dissolving!

Why not just talk to your husband about the things that bother you instead of complaining to someone else? My husband sometimes chews with his mouth open and I just remind him politely. You should be able to talk about those kinds of things, which are pretty minor.
