After 13 years of marriage, a woman’s world is upended when her husband, planning a cross-country move, demands a sudden separation. The woman, who shared her story anonymously on February 3, 2024, recalls her husband’s unexpected frustration with his job and desire to move. “Out of nowhere, he suggested a separation,” she recounted, calling his outburst extreme and unfounded.
In the following weeks, she discovered her husband’s intense communication with an old friend, a recently divorced woman. Their interaction amounted to over 500 texts a day, totaling 24,000 in a month. The husband’s plan was to relocate the family, including their two young children, his mother, and the OP herself. She reflected on her past sacrifices and found the move “unconscionable.”
When her husband traveled for what was supposed to be a one-day interview, it turned into a four-day trip, raising further suspicions. Confronted, he admitted to being “unhappy for 15 years,” leaving OP questioning her own decisions about divorce and custody.
Online, OP’s story received an overwhelming response, with many deeming her “NTA” for her actions. One commenter wrote, “He’s mad cause he lost his advantage when you figured out what was going on and got yourself a lawyer.” Another added, “He doesn’t get to upend everyone’s lives because he’s having an affair.”
