She Wrote In Her Secret Diary About Wanting To Divorce Her Husband, And He Read It
For the last decade, this 27-year-old woman has been with her 30-year-old husband, and they got married close to three years ago.
Then, last year, her husband revealed to her that he cheated on her one year into their relationship, but he kept it a secret for that long.
The girl he cheated on her with was one of his coworkers that he didn’t know too well, but he booked a hotel room for them.
Prior to that cheating incident, her husband kept a secret from her that had something to do with his ex-girlfriend.
“So up until last year, he had lied to me for 100% of our relationship (as far as I know),” she explained.
“A few months ago, I was seriously considering divorce, which I think is something that anyone would think in my situation, but nothing came of it except for me writing it down in my diary.”
She suffers from severe depression, and writing helps her cope with this. So, she frequently writes in her diary, but she keeps it hidden away so nobody can find it.
Well, today, her husband figured out her hiding spot, and he read her diary. He obviously came across the part where she wrote about wanting to divorce him, and he’s very upset.
He’s furious with her for even thinking about filing for divorce, but she’s equally as angry with him for invading her private space.

Her husband claims he was only going through her diary to check in on her mental health and equates it to when she goes through his phone to make sure he’s not sending inappropriate texts to other women, but she doesn’t agree with that comparison.
“I think the main reason I stayed for so long despite all the red flags was because I was 17 when we started dating, and he is the only relationship I have ever been in,” she added.
“Up until I met him, I thought there was something wrong with me, that I wasn’t deserving of love. So I just held on tight. I look back now and wish I had given myself a chance to have a different life.”
For her, divorce is back on the table and she thinks this is something she should seriously pursue at this point.
