Some men are remembered for their noble deeds, while others behave so oddly that it’s hard to say anything good about them. Maybe there is some logic in their actions, but it often can’t be understood.
- When I gave birth to our daughter, my husband said he wanted a son. A year later, he hinted that it was time to start working on a boy. I didn’t mind, I just wanted to wait for a few more years. My husband persisted, “If you don’t do it, somebody else will!”
When our daughter was 3, he left the family. It turned out he had had another woman for 2 years, and she was expecting a child. It was a long divorce, he even wanted his half of our cutlery. Finally, he had a long-awaited heir, 2 years later another one. It was 11 years ago.
Recently, my ex’s mother called me and asked me to meet. I didn’t want to, but still agreed. It turned out that the ex-husband is getting a divorce. The kids weren’t his. He had an affair again, his new wife found out about it and filed for divorce.
He said he’d demand full custody of their sons. And then the woman said they were not his children, and a DNA test proved it. The ex’s mother asked me to make peace with her son and take him back, because we have a daughter, his only child. I refused, of course.
- My second childbirth was very difficult. My daughter was taken to the city hospital in a resuscitation car, and I was kept in the maternity ward for another day, and then was released. So, I was going home alone. By bus. What about my husband?
My husband said, “I’m so tired after work. Get a taxi.” We’re on good terms with him now. He pays child support, is good with the kids. Sometimes we talk about different things. I never forgave him, though, but I learned my lesson. Now I have a wonderful husband.
- I was cycling. The chain came off, I fell and broke my arm in 2 places. I called my husband to tell him what had happened, and he was like, “You’re such an idiot! How are you going to cook, clean and take care of the child?” And soon we broke up. Why going on to live with a person who doesn’t care about you?
- In college, I went on a date with a male model. Nothing wrong with that profession, but he acted like a “typical” male model. He talked about himself the whole time, kept describing how successful he was because of his “look,” would talk over me, got wildly offended when I said DJing isn’t rocket science, had me pay for my own coffee, then proceeded to say he had a great time/wanted to keep seeing me. There was no second date.
- I called my husband while he was at work to ask how things were going. He replied, “It’s fine. I finished everything an hour ago. We are now sitting with coworkers, playing a game. My home computer broke down, I can’t play at home.”
I was astonished! I thought, “Okay, I’ll show you what’s what,” and said, “Ian, there are games at home too! Come and have fun with a vacuum cleaner or washing machine. You can also play with our children.”
