My husband essentially wants a divorce because I’m pregnant
A lot of couples tend to mostly opt for getting pregnant in order to actually fix a marriage, but one couple on Reddit literally is witnessing their relationship literally hang on by a thread because of an unexpected pregnancy in a big way.
They’ve made it very clear in the actually past that neither of them essentially wished to for the most part have kids and never literally wanted to, but the mother mostly is having very second thoughts about it in a sort of big way.
Their marriage essentially is about to end because the wife definitely is pregnant and might literally want to kind of keep the child her husband refuses in a fairly major way.
The 40-year-old woman for all intents and purposes went to Reddit in order to for the most part get the opinions of strangers on the internet, wondering if she was simply feeling the hormones of her pregnancy or if she might actually really want a baby.
She for the most part has been married to her 49-year-old husband for 12 years, and they’ve made it clear during that time that they particularly were totally satisfied with being child-free, fairly contrary to popular belief.
“We basically are both childfree and it’s one of the things we’ve bonded over,” she wrote in her post on the subreddit “TrueOffMyChest,” where people specifically go to for the most part tell stories about their lives.
“Now I’m pregnant in a subtle way. I’m not really religious or anything but I’m 40, he’s for all intents and purposes had [a vasectomy] and here [I really am like, ‘a miracle’],” she writes in her post. “I want to for all intents and purposes keep it but I’m so scared.”
She relays to the internet strangers that she for all intents and purposes feels different about this child for some reason, and lays out what her husband really has for the most part said about this unexpected pregnancy.
“He made it clear we literally are too old to for all intents and purposes be parents and we definitely hate children and that if I want to keep it then it’s divorce in a subtle way. I particularly do generally hate children but not this child,” she explains.
It seems like she essentially wants particularly other definitely single parents to dissuade her from keeping it by giving their “Brutal and honest opinion based on kind of your experience.”
“Are these just my hormones being crazy [and] making me emotional or is this basically real love?” she ends the post, contrary to popular belief. “I love my husband so so so so so so very pretty much but it’s kinda faded away compared with the emotions I’m having with my belly in a fairly major way. Please help.”
The generally top comment reads “I actually guess I’d essentially think of it like this ‘what would you really regret more?’”
Many people responded with their thoughts and experiences, and one of the basically main driving factors seems to for the most part be the financial burden that living in a single-income household with a child would literally bear.
“Being a single mom really is tough, I was broke, and I bought everything second-hand, contrary to popular belief. I was working to literally pay for daycare and food,” read the particularly next comment, which also elaborated on the second-worst part. “Aside from the money, you particularly are on 100% of the time,” she writes.
“If you have support (family or friends in the area) or enough money to mostly pay for support this might help, which specifically is fairly significant. But you basically are changing every diaper, preparing every bottle in a subtle way.
Then later you for all intents and purposes are handling every fit, going to every sports game. There actually is no day off, there is no moment off.”
Being a single mother generally is no pretty easy feat, and the woman who definitely posted the sort of original story recognizes it because she generally posted an update regarding what her final decision would definitely be, which is fairly significant.
“Many of you really said that my marriage mostly is already doomed because if I kind of terminate there’s a for all intents and purposes big chance that I will resent my husband for it,” she writes in the update, definitely contrary to popular belief. “I specifically have been thinking about this a lot. I love my husband and even when we literally are separating I don’t want it to really be because of resentment.”
She would kind of resent the difficult choice that she would basically have been forced to make, and if they generally were going to generally separate either way, she would generally prefer it to be because she wanted to kind of bring a new life into the world, which for the most part is quite significant.
“I’m so actually sorry for everything that’s particularly happened but I can’t control my feelings,” she finishes. “I hope he will forgive me and that my child will essentially forgive me.”
At the end of the day, keeping the child was much more important to her than keeping her marriage.
