A Redditor had shared her story about leaving her husband, because of a gift she received from her husband. The woman shared the story on Reddit’s “offmychest” subreddit.
The OP explained that she met with her husband five years ago, and they were married for three years. The woman stated that she is still very much in love with her husband.
A year ago, OP shared that they had some problems in their marriage, and they went to counseling. Their therapist had stated that they should go out more and start to give gifts to one another, so they started to.
At first, the husband would buy his wife jewellry and expensive makeup, and things started to get better. One day, the husband gifted a necklace with the initial of his name, and stated that it would hurt him if she wouldn’t wear, and OP shared that it was gorgeous.
Then the husband bought a backstracher for his wife to use it on him. OP shared that she would get tired, and her nails were ruining.
OP shared, “He would get my fancy cookbooks, cooking appliances, and nice aprons so I can cook better meals. He got me earplugs so he could play his guitar at full volume and I wouldn’t have to tell him to turn it down. He even got me a sewing machine so I could “sew his things when they get holes.””
Then OP had lost it, and started to yell, as she stated that he was not getting gifts for her, and he was getting gifts that he would like. Then her husband started to yell at her too, and called her names which the argument turned into a fight, where they started to throw things to the walls. Then her husband left the house.
On her update, the OP shared that she is getting a divorce, since her husband didn’t talked with her after the events, until she filed the divorce. The husband stated that she was making a bad choice. OP shared that the comments she read under her post were the wake up call she needed.
