There’s no other option but divorce for this woman, who tied the knot with her husband four years ago, but she’s still mourning the fact that her marriage is over, and it all came about in an upsetting way.

She can tell you exactly why she married him in the first place, even though he’s a horrible human being.

In the beginning, she thought her husband was strong. He overcame poverty, abuse, and growing up in foster care. Her husband has fought hard for his success, and he’s intelligent.

So, while she can speak to the reason she walked down the aisle, she doesn’t have a good argument for why she remained by his side in the past few years.

“My husband has always been narcissistic and treated people like they are worthless,” she explained.

“He was acting better with me and never made me feel like I am not enough, but he was always pretty cold with me. We are both 38, and he runs a couple of successful businesses. Not to say that he is also active in charity.”

“It’s because of his God complex, not genuine care for the unfortunate ones. He employed a younger woman who is 25. She is stunning, and I was jealous, to be honest. But he said he needed a very beautiful girl to attract donors and convince people to donate.”

Her envy ended and was replaced with a growing sense of pity. Her husband treated this poor girl like nothing she could ever do was good enough for his standards.

She actually thought this girl was good at her job. One time, this girl was late, and her husband docked her pay by 20% as punishment.

Her husband would say negative things about this girl to her, insisting she deserves to live in poverty because she has no skills and isn’t smart.

Her husband treats every single person in this fashion, so she knows he wasn’t speaking ill of his employee in order to cover up his affair. Her husband routinely loses employees as he treats everyone in a demeaning way, and it’s rare for someone to stick around past the 6-month mark.

“Yet everyone seems to love him in the beginning because he is charming and he is confident, and I can understand why people, especially women, think he is great (in the beginning),” she said.

“But he got this woman pregnant. I will divorce, of course; I am not here because I don’t know what to do regarding this. I will leave. But I just need to talk to someone.”

She’s overwhelmed with fury and guilt, and she cannot understand why her husband knocked up his employee.

This girl actually confided in her about wanting to leave her job, but she gave her the same advice she has stuck to in her life: don’t quit a position until you have something else lined up that’s better.

She felt so sorry for this girl. But then, she found out about the affair, and she confronted her husband, who maintained he would not get a paternity test as it’s beneath him.

She made it clear to her husband that she would be filing for divorce, and he just told her she’s free to leave.

Her loved ones said she should not contact this girl, but she did reach out to her to find out her side of things.

“And she told me she thinks she developed feelings for him, but she will stay away from our marriage; she promised me this and begged me to forgive her,” she said.

“I wanted to reply, but she blocked me. I confronted him about all this. He is calm, as usual. It seems nothing touched him…I hate him, I hate myself, I hate my life. We don’t have any kids together because he said he dislikes children. But I wanted. And now he will have his, and I am almost 40, and… I hate this.”

She can’t believe her husband could treat her like she’s trash, and she’s worried that he’s going to go on to marry this girl he cheated on her with, even though she knows she needs to stop thinking about that.
