“She Had Gained 15Kg”: 47 Strange, Sad And Shocking Reasons People Filed For Divorce

Husband asked for a separation last week. Our first therapy session revealed that he wanted out and FAST.

He says he doesn't know. I don't know. I have a stressful job and my dad died six months ago so I've been a pain in the a*s. Who knows. I'm still shaking my head in disbelief.

Wanted to separate bills and accounts. When I do that and it negatively impacts him, he gets s****y.

He said things like "society made me get married! You bamboozled me into marrying you! I don't know what I want but I don't want you. Even if I left you tomorrow I'd still love you". It's been a fun week!

I walked in on her with another man.

We got married really young....stupid.... he violated probation having a firearm and went to prison...while in prison he tatted his face....so yeah strait A college foot ball player turns to gangsta boo

Will be divorced very soon. Have met with lawyers.

Three weeks ago to the day he lost it. He beat the s**t out of me, choked me, then pulled a g*n on me I. Front of our 4 year old.

The past few years he has struggled with a pain pill a*******n, even going so far as to steal my medication(once took 1/3 bottle of Percocet 10s two days after it was filled I didn't know for a week because I use those planner things)

Tried to get him help, he didn't want it, became increasingly hostile and I kept thinking it would get better, but it never did and this was the last straw.

My son and I have both been diagnosed with PTSD, and I have a VPO. I also moved across the country while he was still in custody(mommy bailed him out and then showed up at the house screaming about how I "probably provoked him"...I'm in a wheelchair....)

Anyway yeah. Done. Over. Not asking for anything because f**k him I got this.

I'll add that he lost his s**t because he was going through withdrawals from not having pills because I have spent the last six months in terrible pain, to remove the temptation from his grasp I didn't know he was getting them from a guy at work until he was in jail and I scoured everything, his eyes are super dark brown and I could never tell if his pupils were constricted but I trusted that he was off them. He's just a loser. And I was stupid enough to give him chances because "love"

I will never forget this for as long as I live. Our marriage had been on autopilot for a while and one night we finally had a bruatally honest conversation/argument. She asked me, "What do you want from me?!" I said, "I just want you to be with me the way I want to be with you." This is when I knew our marriage was over. She said, "Well, that's just not going to happen."

That memory is so incredibly painful for me, even now after we've been divorced for years and I am remarried with a beautiful child. I still cry sometimes thinking about my ex. It still hurts.

Financial issues. Dave Ramsey said it best: "You can't out-earn stupid." She was unwilling to set and live by a budget. New purses and sweaters and shoes every time you turned around. I worked FOUR jobs. I asked her if I should maybe get a fifth job? BTW she had a doctorate and a student loan and would not go get a job. She still doesn't work.

Well my wife wanted an open marriage. She has had multiple boyfriends/s****l partners. As soon as I try to partake in the open marriage. With her knowing all about it she flips out turns out the open marriage was only supposed to work one way.

We got married way too quick. It was Vegas where she was from. Came back to N.Y. where I worked and she did nothing at all. She left around Xmas to see family in Vegas. Came back like three weeks later. Then a month later just after she interviewed for a job she told me she was leaving againg to go to Virginia to help her worthless aunt move back to Vegas. She gets there and blows 500 in two days then calls me to ask for money to put gas in her aunt's car. I said hell no and she didn't talk to me for two days. I finally tell her this isn't working. We get quick Vegas divorce and she is remarried six months later.

Married 18 years. No kids. No d**g/alcohol/a***e/cheating issues. We both gained weight as the years progressed. But never obese. She completely and totally lost interest in s*x which started gradually around year 10. About a year before our divorce, I mentioned that it was like 6 months since we previously had s*x. She told me I was a "disgusting pervert". (Sorry for still being attracted to you.) She also told me that she was not attracted to me anymore. That F*****g k****d me. From the day I met her until the day I left her I thought she was the most beautiful woman I had ever met. I wanted her every day. It’s been 7 years since our divorce. I still miss her sometimes. I still think about her sometimes. She was my wife and my best friend.

I got married at 19, was divorced 2 days after my 22nd birthday. He had cheated on me twice and blamed it on "weight gain and me not having a job" (I had gained about 10 pounds and we lived in a VERY small town where I couldn't find a job, despite all of my efforts), so we moved back to my home town, he found a job, I found a job, but by then we were so broken he just woke up one day, called me while I was at work, and told me he was leaving me. Day after Valentines Day.

When he flipped the coffee table across the room with all the baby's toys on it. That was in 1987 and I have never regretted that decision. He can a***e me- but NOT my son.

My ex and I got married very young. I was 15 and he was 17. We were together 11 years and loved each other, but realized we weren't letting each other grow up. Staying a teenager forever isn't an option when you've got kids. It's been five years and we still care about each other. We've both moved on, he's a great dad. He and his fiancee are my youngest sons godparents and they are having my goddaughter in January.

For me it was 1000 little things, but the moment I decided I had to was when she was driving and I was in passenger seat as we went down highway. I thought about opening the door and jumping, k*****g myself just to get away from her... What stopped me from doing it was the fear I would survive and be stuck with her because I would be c*****e.

Mines on life support. Married almost 12 years, 1 kid and I found out back in May she had been cheating on me since Oct 2014. We've talked on the phone (I'm working away from home) and decided we want to try to make it work. I'm going home for 2 weeks next week so hopefully we will figure something out.

I caught her cheating. Wanted to forgive and move on. We went to counseling, but she started acting suspicious a few weeks later.

Turns out she was in some sort of sub/dom relationship with both her boss and her boss's mistress.

I finally realized I was dealing with problems only a parent raising a child should have to deal with. When I asked for time apart she suddenly became the most self reliant crazy lady I've seen in my life up until that point. At that point I knew I was a convenient fixture in her life and I was worse off for it.

I was tired of the merry-go-round that became our relationship. He would lie about something. The big one was buying a Dodge Viper while we were in the process of getting our home repaired. Then he would promise to change or not lie again. Things would change for a short time and then he would lie again. We were living in spectate states due to him being in the navy. He could not handle the distance and would sabotage our relationship. He refused to partake in the divorce which ended up requiring me subpoena the government to get his records. And to this day he refuses to talk to his family or acknowledge anything has happened. It has been 3 years.

Coming out of marriage counseling (one of many) standing there on the street - she keeps trying to explain why her anger was healthy.

Said to myself, "you're a fool to wait for things to get better." And I didn't, though it took a couple of weeks to move out with something of a plan.

She came up with a different excuse every time I asked her. She refused marriage counselling. She refused to talk in-depth about it. They ranged from the reasonable to the petty. Soooo, I don't know. I'm going with she felt like she was too young and missing out on her party girl years. She could've figured that out earlier in our 8 year relationship so I could've gotten some time back.

Wife married for a visa. Asked me for a divorce the day after we got married, which was rushed through at her insistence. Also lied about taking the pill which explains why she always pushed for s*x. Put up with her s**t for another 5 years to take care of my son born thereafter. Continuously a****d by her and the stepson. Finally gave up and moved overseas.
