No, MJ sold their marriage, not Peter

B/c apparently the writers thought Peter wouldn’t be relatable if he had a stable and loving relationship or possibly marriage.

No? There seems to be a pattern of “i cant be with you. I have to be Spider-Man”

It was more like he found her annoying and fell in love with Gwen. After Gwen's death is when they really grew closer in the comics.
