He Married His Wife A Few Months Ago And Now He Wants A Divorce Because He’s Out Of His Wife’s League
This man didn’t explore his romantic life in college—then after graduation, he proposed to his girlfriend of six years.
Now, he’s 25 and rethinking his marriage. Is it a classic quarter-century life crisis or a sign of their inevitable breakup?
He posted on Reddit asking for advice about his relationship, which started when he was 19 years old, and his now-wife was 24.
She was his first everything (kiss, girlfriend, etc.). Since they were exclusive, she asked him to delete Tinder, which meant he had no avenue to see who else was out there.
But he loved his girlfriend, and he was eager to propose to her after graduation.
Then, something changed in the last few years, and he’s been ruminating on it during the first few months of their marriage.
“Sadly, in my dreams, daydreaming, or just looking at other women, I randomly have the urge to just divorce, sleep with other women and explore the world and do my own thing,” he wrote in the post.
Shockingly, he proposed with lingering hangups about unexplored relationships, and he thought that suppressing his desires would make them disappear.
But when he became more successful in his modeling career and started getting noticed by women, he began reassessing his sense of self; “I would say after all this, I became out of Rachel’s league.”

But Redditors expressed their disbelief over his casual disparagement of his partner of six years.
One countered his perspective, writing, “I don’t care what either of you looks like. Just by this post, I can tell that she’s the one out of your league. Not the other way around.”
The apparent disrespect toward his marriage continued in his post. He praised his wife for her ability to compromise to meet his needs, get along with his family, and her emotional intelligence.
He even boasted that she never wanted to get married before they got together and that she was willing to have kids solely because he wanted them.
But now, of course, his priorities have shifted massively. “I am not ready at all for that,” he said on the topic of kids.
“I have so much life to live before I even think about wanting to do that. I want to explore the world, travel, make amazing memories with my friends, etc.”
He also shared that he’s recently started drinking and clubbing, which has rightfully raised red flags for his wife.
When he asked for advice at the end of the post, Redditors didn’t hold back; one wrote, “Honestly, I would say that yes, you should leave. Maybe for your own good, but mostly so your wife isn’t stuck with you anymore. And please remain single until you learn how to communicate with your partner properly.”
They also expressed the opinion that his wife deserves better and that he had essentially gotten them both “stuck” by not communicating his anxieties until it was too late.
