She’s Concerned Her Husband Wants A Divorce After She Screamed At Him And Insulted His Hobbies
Four years ago, this 27-year-old woman walked down the aisle and married her 28-year-old husband.
Now, he has a room in their home dedicated to his various hobbies, which include LEGOs, sim racing, music production, soccer analysis, and aviation setups.
She says this is not only like a man cave for her husband – it’s literally “his sanctuary.” Her husband is extremely analytical and enjoys writing about different topics that he dissects, including sports.
“He’s slightly on the spectrum and very introverted, so he doesn’t have close friends,” she explained.
She’s the only one in her husband’s life that he shares his hobbies with. He constantly invites her to come to his room so he can show her what he’s working on.
She loves her husband with all of her heart, and it means a lot to her that he is so inclusive, but she occasionally just wants to be alone and take time by herself.
Unfortunately, she freaked out on her husband pretty recently, and she’s not sure how to make amends for the terrible things she said to him.
“I yelled at him, saying some hurtful things that I didn’t mean, like how his interests bore me, that he needs to get a social life, and even questioned why I married him,” she said.
“I regret every word, but my anger got the best of me, and I couldn’t control it in that moment. Since then, he’s completely changed.”

“He stopped spending time in his room, moved to sleeping on the couch, and barely talks to me. He even ignored our usual tradition of watching our home nation’s soccer team play, something he’d never skip before.”
They have a rule to prevent themselves from working while at home, and her husband has been breaking that and throwing himself into his job.
She questioned her husband about it, and he maintained that he should start acting more like his dad, who is the definition of a workaholic and her husband’s idol.
What really concerned her was that her husband commented that he no longer blamed his dad for getting divorced at the age that he did.
“I’ve apologized multiple times, but he just says, “It’s okay, maybe you’re right,” and shuts down any attempts I make to talk about his interests,” she continued.
“I’m terrified he’s considering divorce. I know I messed up, but I don’t know how to rebuild trust and help him feel valued and loved again. I don’t want to lose him, but I’m unsure how to approach this and make amends.”
What advice do you have for her, and do you think she can fix things?
