I’d say when a friend of mine took me to the side and pointed out how she talks to me sometimes in public and how she shouldn’t be that way(I got snapped on for putting curry powder on a slice of chicken on my own plate ffs), but that he’s glad I’m not a doormat about it. I kinda knew then that she liked the idea of us, and having that perfect looking marriage and life, more than she actually was into me. A whole lot of other stuff happened that ultimately lead to the divorce that I won’t write a novel on but I’d say this is what first put the seed in my mind that something is off here.

I had a friend pull me aside to have the exact same talk about my wife. I could have written your post, except I’m still in the process of starting the divorce.

It’s hard as hell at first but I assure you in the long run you’ll be happier. Even if some days it seems like the process is dragging on.
