Today, I was given the best news of my life. I am cancer free and am not, at the ripe age of 23 going to bite the dust. My husband left his journal on the nightstand in our bedroom. He wrote, "I feel like a bad person, but if she dies, I don't have to get divorced." FML

well, you did read his journal so your obviously a bitch, and then you went and posted something from his journal in a public forum, which makes you even more of a bitch, so cancer or not I think he has pretty good reason to leave you.

I would divorce him if I were you....

How does her reading his journal that he left in plain sight constitute her being a bitch? You're being a bit to harsh my friend.

Not all evils are equal. Wishing death on someone you love because you are too much of a coward to face and fix your mistakes is way more severe than reading a journal.

for all the people saying 23 is too young, i'd just like to say that age doesn't really make a difference. if someone is 23 and an asshole, do you really think he's going to stop being an asshole when he hits 25? or 30? or maybe you guys are saying it's too young because you're 30 and still single...but i don't know for sure so i guess i can't judge you guys

I'm very happy to hear about your good health, OP. I'm sorry to hear about your husband, but you quite obviously deserve better. I hope you act on it. While I'm on the subject of her husband, I disagree with the people saying 23 is too young to get married. This is not worthy of a YDI just because some of you have had failed marriages and wish YOU hadn't gotten married young. It is not up to any of you to criticize her, and as someone else said, who's to say this guy would have EVER grown up enough to be a good husband? If you clicked "YDI" on this because you think she married too young, then grats on bad. You completely missed the point of the FML.

Do the ads relate to what you are looking at because mine just came up with "yell if you need a soliciter".

you'd think a girl would understand that a journal is a place to expunge your innermost feelings, those you cant really talk about with people? just because he wrote it doesnt mean he wants you to die, or even that he wants to leave you.

Think of it as getting TWO fresh starts, You know first hand how short life is, you don't need losers like him dragging you down! Cut the cords and go out and do all the things you thought you where too late for!!!

Maybe she didn't even know it was his journal at first, and it just looked like a blank book and she was curious and happened to open to that page. One time after I had left for college, I found a book with a plain cover just sitting on the kitchen counter and opened it, it ended up being a memory and informative scrapbook that my mom made about my dad who died when I was a baby. D: I felt horrible for ruining her meaningful surprise but it was just an accident. I didn't say anything. So, it can happen. A book just sitting right in the open doesn't look very private or important to me.

I think you guys are reading the quote out of context. They probably were having marriage problems beforehand and he was unhappy and wanted a divorce. She got skin Cancer and he felt terrible about his feelings and wrote them down not wanting to make her unhappy and certainly not wishing death on her. He probably has a journal to write memoirs or something when he gets to be old. Who goes snooping through books anyway? Thats private shit.
