I Think My Wife Is In Love With Her Female Best Friend. I'm A Bad Husband And I Was Treating Her Badly Without Realizing It.

In this video, we delve into a compelling story titled "I Think My Wife Is In Love With Her Female Best Friend." Join us as we explore the emotional journey of a man who has been married to his wife for seven years, only to discover an unexpected connection between his wife and her high school best friend.
We start by introducing the protagonist, who met his wife eight years ago at a church meeting. Despite her quiet, kind, and beautiful demeanor, he noticed her reluctance to engage in romantic gestures. Raised in a strict religious family, she often shied away from physical affection, which he initially attributed to her upbringing. Over the years, he accepted her distant behavior as a part of her personality, despite noticing moments when she seemed lost in thought.
The story takes a turn when her high school best friend returns to town, bringing an unprecedented joy to his wife's life. Suddenly, she becomes more outgoing and lively, frequently going out with her friend, a stark contrast to her previous behavior. This newfound happiness in her raises suspicions in him, leading him to delve into her past and uncover old photos that hint at a deeper relationship between the two women.
As he confronts his wife about these photos, she reveals the truth: they were indeed a couple in high school, forced apart by her strict parents. This revelation leads to a heart-wrenching realization that his wife has been living a lie, never fully loving him as a husband but rather as a friend. Her happiness with her best friend, now returned, underscores the emotional disconnect in their marriage.
Faced with this truth, he grapples with feelings of betrayal and confusion. Despite her reassurances that she never physically cheated, he recognizes the emotional infidelity that has plagued their relationship. The story reaches a climax as he decides to leave, seeking solace at his sister's house, while his wife remains in denial about the impact of her actions.
In a subsequent update, he shares the fallout from his decision to divorce. His wife's refusal to acknowledge the emotional weight of their separation, coupled with her continued insistence that their marriage should persist despite the lack of romantic love, highlights the deep-seated issues they face. He reflects on the psychological toll of their relationship, acknowledging his own trauma and the need for a fresh start.

Poor guy. Although I do feel bad for the wife, he did not deserve to be used as her beard. He wanted a meaningful romantic relationship that went deeper than friendship and she kept that from him for years.

What she did was HORRIBLE. Nothing JUSTIFIES it. Trauma is a terrible thing yes. But that does not give you the right to use other people the way she did. She knew EXACTLy what she was doing and strung the poor unaware man along.. Honestly..I Hope OP gets over her as quickly as possible. 😔

Your fear and trauma do not give you carte blanche to treat others poorly. If it is a mutual decision to put up a front, that is one thing...my gay bestie and his parents have called me his fiancée and/or their daughter-in-law on occasions, as it is easier than trying to explain me to people. I attend family functions. He is a plus one on some memberships I have, etc. I put a career over marriage. It works for us. OP deserves to be happy. His wife took that from him. It is no different than if she were in love with another man and behaved the same way.

I’m religious too and I don’t act like a robot especially around loved ones 😅

is this channel monitized?

One the one hand, I take a dim view of beards. On the other hand, how can you possibly go that long, not as a man, but as a human being, living with a clearly miserably unhappy, dead eyed, traumatized automaton thinking everything is fine. Who only comes to life around other people.

Honestly? Probably because he never saw her light up around anyone until her ex-gf showed back up. While I knew almost immediately where the post was going because come on, it's Reddit, there actually are people who are that reserved and it's because of all kinds of reasons.
If what he said in his posts is actually true, then he was, to the best of his ability, a good husband. This is one of the times a man gets full credit for trying (IF his view of what happened is accurate and not skewed to make himself look better at the expense of the truth) because he was set up to fail from the beginning.
I feel for his ex-wife, I do, and I wish her nothing but healing and finally being able to be unapologetically herself, regardless of what her horrifically unGodly family thinks, but not even her trauma excuses manipulating another person in order to hide from your family without that other person's full knowledge and consent.
She wasted YEARS of his life, that's fact, and it sucks because it means BOTH of them are victims of her family's bigotry.

There is a special kind of hell where you don’t know you’re unhappy, because you don’t know what happiness feels like. Where you don’t know what it is to be in love, because you’ve never been loved. You “put up” with things because that existence feels normal to you.

The first comment was so ridiculous
