She’s About To Divorce Her Husband Over An Argument They Had About His Pants
For the last 20 years, this 39-year-old woman has been with her husband, who is the same age as her.
Of late, they’re arguing a lot more than normal, and she’s at her wit’s end with everything. Yesterday, the day started out as usual, which means her husband slept in late while she made breakfast.
Around 11 a.m., she woke her husband up so he could eat, and after he finished his food, he went to their couch and fell back asleep.
Her husband usually lounges around and naps, so long as they don’t have pressing plans, but he mentioned one of his friends was coming over to pick up some baby items she wanted to give away.
As her husband was taking his nap, she collected the baby items for his friend. Then, she woke her husband up again, as they had to get ready for a sporting event their oldest child had that afternoon.
“I went to the basement to turn over the laundry and had headphones in,” she explained. “As I’m walking up the stairs my older [child] yells down, “Mommy, daddy needs you.”
She figured her husband had run out of toilet paper of something of the sort and made her way back upstairs.
When she got there, her husband glared at her and mentioned he found his wallet, which was missing, before asking her why she didn’t come when he called her name.
She responded that since she was in the basement, she never heard him calling for her. She did have her headphones in and couldn’t hear her husband carrying on about his missing wallet.

Her husband snapped that she pays attention to their kids more than him, and she closed the door in his face and walked off.
“While we finished getting ready he kept making digs about my deafness (I have 25% hearing loss, so he isn’t wrong), and how [I’m] never allowed to touch his stuff again (he found the [wallet] in his hamper, because I picked up pants he left on the floor and the item had been in the pocket),” she said.
“This lasted until after the game and he went on to yell in the car with my kids there that I was only with him for the money. I saw red. I have been civil for my kids since this but I am livid.”
“I have a job, I pay all our bills but the roof. I do all the cooking, all the cleaning, all the child pick ups and drop offs, every bath time, every bed time. He does outside chores but I also do those to help him out sometime as he has a physical job, the only thing I’ve never done is mow the lawn (I have no idea how).”
Following the argument she and her husband got into over his pants and him being angry she put them in the hamper, which caused him to lose his wallet, she’s honestly considering divorcing him.
There is totally more to this than just pants, but that was the final straw for her, and she’s ready to move on.
She’s left feeling super resentful over the disagreement that happened in light of her husband’s pants, and she’s curious what she should do before filing.
What advice do you have for her?
