Relationships are built on trust, and many end when this trust is betrayed.
That’s the experience of one anonymous poster on Mamamia, who revealed the reason she left her husband.
On face value, it sounds pretty innocuous: she left because she saw the nickname her husband referred to her by on his phone. But the real meaning behind it is so much deeper.

The poster dives into a time when her son was two years old.

“From the moment our son was born, nothing changed for my husband,” she wrote.
“He stayed in our marital bed whilst I moved into the nursery to do night duty with our son. He continued his long Friday lunches, that always turned into Friday night drinks, because they were networking opportunities. He had always played Thursday night sport – he didn’t ever even miss one week.”
A big issue in the marriage seemed to be her wanting to know her husband’s plans, and him apparently not wanting to be open with her.
“It was a weird shift in our marriage that I hadn’t expected – this stubborn reluctance to tell us when he was going to participate in our lives,” she wrote.
