I Picked Wrong First Wife

My first wife and I got married after high school at 19 years old. We had known each other since childhood. I had always treated her very special. I was crazy in love with her. I soon found out I was in competition with her mom and best girlfriend whom was a policewoman. They as a trio were strong feminist and anti male. I know I wasn’t perfect but I gave more than 50% to treat her special. After 2 years I was getting annoyed by lack of respect my wife showed me. I had a good paying job but had to work swing shift rotating weekly time of day I worked. When I worked 3 to 11 I would get a shower and go to bed with my sleeping wife. I wanted my wife to be proud of me providing for us and often on this shift would initiate sex. She finally told me to leave her alone at that time of night.

The turning point in our marriage was on an evening shift night. I got in from work, showered, and got in bed. I had started not initiating sex on this shift but I was horny that night so I tried to initiate sex. I was behind her feeling her up and she elbowed me very hard hitting my nose. Blood was going everywhere. I went to bathroom got a towel catching bleeding nose. My wife never checked on me. I finally drove my self to emergency room. My injury was more than just a simple broken nose. I had to call my wife to come pick me up that afternoon at hospital. I had to take 4 days off work. My wife never apologized and acted like that is what I deserved.

That night her mom and policewoman friend came over and both shamed me for causing this. We had a big argument and I told them to leave but my wife stood up for them. I left and went to my parents. The next day I was served a restraining order at my parents. This really hurt me very much. I called my wife to find out what this was about and she said I couldn’t touch her at night. When I could go back to work I went home and got my work clothes. My wife asked me to please come home after work. I came home and she acted glad to see me and wanted sex. I to this day have never forgiven her for her actions. I refused to have sex with her from that moment forward. Her mom made me the joke of the town over this incident. I stayed with my wife two months but finally moved back with my parents. My wife changed after a short time before I moved out and tried to get my attention and petting back. Again her mom smeared me around town saying I won’t have sex any more with my wife. That is when I moved out.

My wife came over daily crying and begging for me to come back. She begged to move away and start over away from this town. I filed for a divorce and shut off utilities so my wife had to move back with her parents. Her mom even came over and promised to stay out of our marriage. After the divorce I couldn’t believe the amount of young ladies that wanted to be with me. I fell in love with my present wife, built a house, and have a son and daughter. My ex remarried and has three children now. Her husband doesn’t hold a job long and they are struggling. I see my ex often around town and I can see hate, remorse, or regret on her face every time we speak. My present wife always cuddles me when when she can rub us in my ex’s face. Looking back my ex and her trio tried to shame me but in the end I came out much better.

Good for you, buddy. Way to stick up for yourself. Nothing worse than people who think their job is to critique the household provider.

My ex did same …exactly same in many ways. Worst part was I wasn’t a presumptive dick like you and tried to talk it out. On one level I empathize with you, on the other level it like reading a slow motion train wreck.

Many husbands live and accept this behavior

I bet your ex had sex with her present husband anytime he wanted it. She knew what selfishness cost her.

I separated from my wife for being violent. She had a short fuse. She blindsided kicked me in the privates one day for fun. I stayed out of the house most of a year. Her parents paid for her counseling. I went by daily for kids but went home at night. She finally showed a changed person and didn’t take me for granted.
