Today, my husband quit his teaching job, the job putting bread and butter on the table for our family. The reason? He wants to date one of his students he’s been seeing on the side, and wants to make the relationship "official and ethical." FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my husband decided he was finally going to quit his job. We literally bought a house last week. His job is/was easy, with pay way above his qualifications. After we'd talked about it FOR THE 50TH TIME, he did the opposite and texted the dept. head that he hates the company and wants to be part time at most. FML
Today, my husband announced the reason he had been working since much is because he had secretly paid off my tens of thousands of student loans. I then had to tell him I'm leaving him for his best friend. FML
Today, after working at my job for months, I quit. Why? My boss tried to convince me that we are in a secret relationship, after he told me he loved me. FML
Today, my husband told his parents that he was quitting his job so that he could focus on school. They asked him what he was going to do for money. When I told them that I'd be the one working, they took one look at me and burst into laughter. FML
Today, I found out my ex-husband quit smoking and went back to school for his new girlfriend. I’d been behind his ass getting him to stop his bad habits for the entire year and a half of our marriage, and he didn’t wanna do it. Nice to know he wanted to be a better man… for someone else. FML
Today, my husband had to quit his job. Five months ago, we paid a deposit on a brand new house, and the title and mortgage need to be finalized next week. His work is forcing him out because he wanted to do his job safely and to a high standard of workmanship. FML
Today, my husband hooked up with his classmate in the school I talked him into going to. I helped him pass classes to get there. FML
Today, my girlfriend found a teacher who taught her 10 years ago. He's a complete player, but she fell instantly and madly in love with him and kicked me to the curb. We dated for 3 years and lived together for two. I was fixing to propose in 2 weeks. FML
Today, my coworker and I agreed to come clean and tell our fellow employees that we have been secretly dating for a while. Before we could, I received a promotion. I'm now his boss. FML
Today, after 6 years of dating, 2 years of marriage, a daughter and another one on the way, my husband decided that he’s "not the one for me" and told me he was leaving for his co-worker who he’s only known for a few months. Apparently they’re more "meant to be." FML

You sure his ass didn’t get fired for sleeping with a student? I’d guess that’s the more likely case.

Interesting how often this happens. One would hope that your time was spent building a strong relationship with a lot of value. Yet this other girl managed a better value proposition despite not having your advantage of history and personal growth experience...how does that even work?

If the husband is superficial it’s easy enough: the student is younger and seen as more desirable (she doesn’t even need to be prettier, smarter or kinder. She will still give him an ego boost)

My guess would first and foremost be: sex. A sexless marriage is no fun

Ain't no fun? So it's fun?

Report his ass to the school board, the principal, the police and then trash him on social media. I can't stand ******* pedophiles.

To be fair, he could be a college teacher. Still makes him scum for cheating, but not a pedophile.

teachers don't teach at University professors do I think she intentionally said teacher so that we would understand he was a Middle School or high School teacher.

or (if this is in the US) if she's 18, not a pedophile. douchebag, yes. not a pedo

He's in for a treat. As soon as that young girl meets someone younger and more attractive, she'll drop him like a hot potato.

Especially since he now has no job, so no income. No money to spend on the new girlfriend. She's gonna dump his ass soon.
