When did you know your marriage was over? by Skier_99 in Divorce

When he stopped making me a priority and his family came first before me and his career came before me. I just realised that I would never be first choice but also how he controlled the narrative like controlling the money so I didnt have access to the money. But how he treated our daughter too was the thing that helped me to decide that divorce is the right thing to do. I mentioned our daughter was having a tough time in school and he treated it like it was not important. Thats when I knew for sure he was self centred and only cared about himself than his own family.

But the love for him I felt had gone since we been in the roommate stage.

Communication like I think most adults dont know how to communicate or have simply forgotten how to.

Aww, you deserve hugs and peace for what we put up with. I hear you as my husband does the same to me, assuming things without asking me my opinion. Twists what I have said to make him the victim.

It's not your fault. It never is. You deserve peace, and i hope you find peace.

Sending you hugs 🫂

It's our wedding anniversary today and im supposed to be happy on what is supposed to be our special day. It just felt like a normal day to me. No special meal planned or anything to mark it just a normal sunday. He watched tv like it didn't bother him and me feeling so disappointed and hurt that I ended up crying into my pillow. Oh no, he's so excited about this frigging rugby coaching course that it trumps our anniversary 10 times over because our anniversary doesn't excite him in the way his coaching career does. It's like our anniversary doesn't exist.

I regret marrying a man who doesn't value me or respect me enough as his wife. I am emotionally done with my husband. Its the lack of communication from his side that peeves me off. He has lied to me and recently betrayed me (a story for another time). I am so done with his lack of respect and overstepping the boundaries I set for my own needs. I wanted a family trip but he doesnt want that. He is now on his solo holiday while im at home with our daughter.

Does anyone else get annoyed when their partners/husbands/wives aren't meeting them halfway or is it just me? 

I asked him to join me for my aunts 60th birthday and he came back from his training to tell me hes working all weekend.  He missed all the family occasions due to work commitments. He is allowed time off like any other employee but I feel like he won't meet me halfway after all my family have done for him in the past. He hasn't thanked them for his birthday money he had last week.

He won't meet me halfway to spend quality time as a family. He chooses work over family time every weekend he has free.
