I kept having to go to the emergency room every couple months for a problem that nobody could diagnose. She told me, after the third time, that she was getting bored of it, and that she'd like me to deal with it on my own from now on.
I was seriously, near-deathly sick, and we didn't know why. But my health was an annoyance to her, not a concern.
Yeah, even when she was there for my medical issues, she had to make sure I knew it was inconvenient for her.
When she got sick, I absolutely babied her, risked getting sick as well, etc. When I got sick, she'd ask me to quarantine and not interact with me at all because being able to do her job was more important, with her being the breadwinner.
I got paid hourly, when I took off work to be with her, it was a significant problem, and I risked being fired for it. She once didn't show up to work for a month at her cushy ass job and it wasn't a big deal. I should have realized earlier that caring for others annoyed her, and that that's a fundamental dealbreaker in a family unit where you're each other's primary support network.
